Episode 191: Lessons from MrBeast Burger/Impact of Removing Michelin Stars
In this solo episode I discuss two different topics.\xa0\nThe first half is a look at the success and impact of MrBeast Burger in 2023. I know, why bother caring about an influencer selling mass produced burgers? The reality is that 55% of adults say that food e-commerce is an essential and with the digital food economy growing having awareness of what works and why is integral.\xa0\nThe second half of this podcast is focused on an article by the Washington Post this month that highlights the responsibility and impact Michelin has on Chefs when taking away a star. I discuss how our culture as both workers and diners puts an insane amount of pressure on chefs, the precariousness of those who need to keep their starred status and why it is important to highlight this in the industry.\xa0\n\nLink to the Washington Post article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2023/03/02/michelin-stars-chefs-mental-health/\nLink to Virtual Dining Concepts website: https://joinvdc.com/\nJoin the newsletter community at linecookthoughts.com
