It may not come as much surprise, then, to learn that two companies that have focused on healthy eating alternatives have performed so poorly last year. In 2025, shares of Sweetgreen (NYSE: SG) and Beyond Meat (NASDAQ: BYND) were both down nearly 80%.
Both of these stocks come with risks, but which one is the better buy today? Let's take a closer look.
