(a) The caption of the photo that comes with the report says it all:

"Through its 301 INC unit ['established last fall'], General Mills is leading an $18 million investment in Kite Hill, which makes cheese and yogurt from nuts.

(b) condensed from the first three paragraphs:

General Mills "is quietly establishing itself in venture capital * * * It is just one of a small but growing number of giant food companies that have decided they can no longer afford to sit on the sidelines as smaller, more nimble start-ups outmaneuver them in the race for consumers * * * General Mills' latest investment is part of $18 million going into Kite Hill, which makes versions of cheese and yogurt from nuts — no cows involved.

My comment: I did not know milk can come from almond. Then I did not know cheese may come from almond milk.
