The summit was organized and sponsored by beef, egg, and other animal-based food industry groups

No conflict of interest there.

I've long heard that most Americans eat too much meat/protein. My understanding is that's a completely reasonable claim, citations or no citations.

I'm amenable to the idea that the typical American gets sufficient protein to fulfill their needs.

Referencing an article that doesn't support one's argument is nonetheless silly.
