025 Kenny Torrella: The Need for A More Humane Food System
From celebrity fails to ag-gag laws, in this episode, Vox staff writer Kenny Torrella discusses the future of plant-based eating, the need for nuance in journalism, and touches on some untold stories he'd like to uncover. Kenny went from working in the non-profit animal welfare space to full-time journalism, an unusual and interesting transition which has resulted in him producing some of the best content on the web exploring our food system with a mainstream audience.
Before Kenny joined Vox, he was Vice President of Public Engagement at Mercy for Animals and previously held several other roles in nonprofits like HSUS. Kenny's work has always helped to bring stories about factory farming and other issues that we tend to ignore to the front of the conversation.
