Kardashian, who has a sizeable 313 million followers on Instagram alone, joined Beyond Meat as the company’s first Chief Taste Consultant.

The partnership will see the A-lister promoting “her favorite Beyond Meat products” with recipes and creative content, according to a press release.

She will also feature in the Beyond Meat newsletter.

“I’ve been focusing on going more plant-based and can tell you that Beyond Meat is my absolute favorite – I love how all their products not only taste amazing but are also good for me and my family,” Kardashian said in a statement. She added that her four children are “obsessed” with her Beyond Beef taco recipe, the Beyond Burger, and Beyond Chicken Tenders.

“As my fans know, my fridge and freezer are fully stocked with Beyond Meat’s products.”

Celebrity influence

Kardashian added that she’s “thrilled” by the collaboration, and “really inspired” by Beyond Meat’s mission.

“[I] love that they are not only making plant-based eating delicious and accessible, but are doing so in a way that benefits both people and the planet,” the media personality said.

“It’s empowering to know that the small changes I’m making for my family, like incorporating more Beyond Meat into our meals, can add up to make a big impact.”

Kardashian joins Shay Mitchell, Kevin Hart, Snoop Dogg, and Liza Koshy as an ambassador of Beyond Meat. The brand, founded in 2009, is now available at roughly 135,000 retail and foodservice outlets in more than 90 countries.

Beyond Meat’s star-studded lineup of celebrity backers is no accident. Besides the additional attention the company undoubtedly receives, research indicates that celebrities and social media can influence what people eat.

A survey conducted earlier this year, commissioned by dairy conglomerate Arla, found that one in three adults make dietary choices based on what they see on social media.

Additionally, a Harvard review published in 2015 looked at the role celebrities play in spotlighting the climate crisis, especially its ties to animal agriculture.

It asserted that “celebrities can help draw attention to an issue and galvanize youth engagement.”

And, that “food is one such area where celebrities can help link the impacts of climate change to our consumption habits.”

The article concluded: “Celebrities can help by relating the causes and impacts of climate change to existing socio-cultural practices, facilitating not only a questioning of cultural values (such as meat and dairy consumption) but simultaneously making the necessary changes to our habits appear more positive, achievable and accessible.”

New products will be vegan, and boast long-wear.

Kylie Cosmetics lip kits

The revamp comes six years after the star first launched the lip kits under the Kylie Cosmetics brand.

Now, the Instagram page used to promote the brand has been transformed ahead of the new launch – with all previous imagery deleted.

Weeks ago, she posted a photo and hinted ‘something is coming’. This week, she began promoting the new and improved ‘high gloss’ available in 30 shades.

As well as being vegan, it is ‘non-sticky’, and softening, the company claims.

Kylie Cosmetics joins Jenner’s sister company, Kylie Skin, in being vegan. Moreover, Kylie Skin is cruelty-free.

However, details are yet to be released on whether the new Kylie Cosmetics will also be cruelty-free.

Kylie Jenner

Earlier this year, Jenner told her more than 220 million followers that she was ‘really trying’ to not eat meat.

In an Instagram story, she showed off some meat-free food – despite coming under fire for wearing fur in the past.

Plant-based family

Jenner is the half-sister of reality TV star Kim Kardashian – who has become increasingly open about her plant-heavy dieting.

This year she told her millions of fans that the diet ‘does a body good’. However, it was met with criticism as many accused Kardashian of pushing unrealistic beauty standards.

Fellow half-sibling Kourtney Kardashian is also favoring plant-based eating and discussed her journey in a recent interview with Vogue.

Moreover, she’s used her platform to encourage fans to watch Seaspiracy and ditch fish.

Kim Kardashian praises vegan KitKat

Nestlé sent the celeb a box of personalized vegan KitKats – which debuted in the UK earlier this week.

“If anyone knows me, my favorite candy is a KitKat.,” Kim told her 229 million followers: But guys, they’ve called it a ‘Kim Kat’ – the first vegan KitKat! You have no idea how happy this makes me.”

Then, the star, who follows a plant-heavy diet, posted a picture of a half-eaten bar, captioned: “Wow, so good.’

Controversy

Despite the celebrity approval, Nestlé has stirred opinions online for its vegan venture. 

In fact, a poll conducted by Plant Based News found more than a quarter (26.5 percent) of readers would not buy the dairy-free bar.

One social media user vowed to ‘never’ buy anything from Nestlé, adding: “Motive is everything and their motive is money at all costs.”

However, the majority of respondents voted in favor of trying the vegan KitKat – highlighting how difficult it could be to boycott all non-vegan companies.

“Definitely,” one user commented. “More sales could mean Nestlé releasing more vegan products in the future. 

“I also buy most food from Tesco, they’re not a vegan company, same thing?”

A sanctuary supported by the charity gained custody of the cow after her former owner was caught abusing her on the street. 

PETA describes the cow as ‘drop-dead gorgeous’ with ‘striking eyes and long, dark eyelashes’.

A spokesperson from the charity added: “While Kim the rescued cow prefers calm days in the shade and out of the limelight, in all the ways that count, she’s like human Kim.

“She’s devoted to her family and loves spending time with friends.”

Kim Kardashian ‘mostly’ plant-based

Last year, Kim revealed she is ‘mostly’ plant-based during a Twitter Q&A, after being asked whether she’d ever go vegan.

Since then, the 40-year-old has shared on Instagram how she has ‘officially converted three family members’ to a plant-based diet. 

She has also attributed the lifestyle to her slim physique. Early this year, Kim posted photos on Instagram revealing her slim figure, saying: “Plant-based does a body good.”

More recently, Kim has revealed she ‘tries to make her kids eat plant-based as much as possible’ during a cooking tutorial on YouTube. 

However, the celeb doesn’t want to be perceived as a ‘hypocrite’. Therefore, she doesn’t label herself vegan.

Are Kim Kardashian’s kids plant-based?

While cooking Beyond Beef tacos with Tracy Romulus – Kim was asked whether her four children like the vegan dish.

“They do,” the celeb replied. I try to get them to eat as much plant-based as possible. They really don’t know the difference.”

Kim added that her daughter North was particular ‘into’ vegan food. 

‘Mostly’ plant-based

Last year, during a Twitter Q&A, the media personality turned entrepreneur announced she had ditched meat and was ‘mostly’ plant-based.

When asked whether her children also followed a vegan diet, Kim responded: “Yess they do! North is a pescatarian though.”

In the cooking tutorial, Kim also spoke about her journey with plant-based eating.

“I didn’t do it religiously – only when I was at home,” she said. “I just met chefs that loved to cook plant-based and were teaching me so much about, like, sea moss and all of these amazing food that have these really good health benefits.

“So, I would always say I’m plant-based when I’m at home but I’m not plant-based if I go to a restaurant like I can’t control myself.

“Then I stopped, I got over it. Maybe a year later, I got reintroduced to it. I think I tried something that was just really good and it was plant-based. 

“Luckily, I have the help of amazing chefs that have figured out how to find the things I love and make a plant-based version of that.”

Kim added that she never wants to be a ‘hypocrite’ and said there may be times where she still consumes animal products in the future.

Beyond Meat

Kim made Beyond Beef vegan tacos alongside Tracy Romulus – and praised the plant-based brand for its nutritional content. 

“The thing I really love about Beyond Meat is it has zero cholesterol – that’s like crazy in comparison to real meat,” Kim said.

“And, it has a third less of the saturated fat. So, there is a big difference: it’s just a plant-based alternative that looks like meat, tastes like meat – I’m such a fan.”

The celeb also said she will bring a container of food including Beyond Meat wherever she goes so she can start ‘cooking it herself’.

Kim also spoke about her journey to a more plant-based diet, which she has showcased on social media throughout the years.

Are Kim and Kourtney vegan?

Both sisters have spoken about their plant-based diets on social media. Kim told her 205 million followers the diet ‘does a body good‘. Last year she revealed she was ‘mostly plant-based’ and has since shared snippets of her cooking via her Instagram stories.

Just last month, Kourtney said her sister’s diet was ‘rubbing off on her’. Additionally, she has shared a plant-based food guide on Poosh.

Kim has spoken proudly about persuading her family to ditch meat and dairy. Even her younger sister Kylie Jenner took to Instagram to profess she was ‘really trying not to eat meat’.

Is Kourtney Kardashian vegan? 

Last month, Kourtney shared a ‘guide to a plant-based diet’ from her online lifestyle brand Poosh.

The guide reads: “By now, many of us understand that a plant-based diet isn’t all tofu and lettuce (and thank goodness).

“But that doesn’t mean it’s not intimidating, and hard to know where to start. It also means you have to plan a little better when it comes to getting all your macronutrients so that you’re well-nourished and feel full for an appropriate amount of time.”

However, the star has also been promoting collagen powder which is unsuitable for vegans. This is because collagen – a protein found mostly in hair, skin, nails, bones, and ligaments – is mainly derived from animals such as beef.

Last year – during a Q&A on Twitter – Kourtney’s sister Kim revealed she revealed that she is ‘mostly plant-based and doesn’t eat meat ‘anymore’.

‘Plant-based does a body good’

Kim was inundated with compliments – with many fans stating their desire to switch to a plant-based diet. However, she also received backlash for creating ‘unrealistic body standards’.

One Twitter user said: “I mean you can’t credit a plant-based diet alone. Being extremely rich and frequent trips to a plastic surgeon/fillers/botox/etc help too. 

“Saying this body is obtainable by eating plant-based alone creates unrealistic body standards in an unattainable way.”

This isn’t the first time Kim has credited her plant-heavy diet for her iconic figure. In 2019, the star was asked whether she has removed a rib to achieve her slim waist.

She replied: “No, I honestly think being a vegan now helped.”
