i'm totally for mock meat

I just think it should be cheaper than real meat, 2 shitty beyond burgers for 10 bucks is a tough sell

It would be, if meat weren't subsidized by your tax dollars.

thats totally fair, I'm not offended by that
if we subsidized broccoli instead of corn I genuinely think that would end the obesity epidemic

It needs to be at least the same price (or cheaper) and taste at least as good as the real thing (or better).

Otherwise most people are going to stick with the real thing.

I don't get why we go out of the way to make not meat look like meat. Vegan food that looks like a chicken leg is unnecessary.

I feel like theres a spiritual, instinct aspect to eating meat that vegans thing they can Reddit argument their way out of

Because there are people that like eating meat, but prefer not to abuse animals and the environment for it.

So they want to not eat meat. Meat shapes are not going to turn non-meat into meat. Seems like some weird copium.

Animals turn grass into meat. We'll figure it out eventually. Til then many feel it's close enough for some dishes.

Yeah its fucking gross. Like I understand fake burgers and shit cuz patties cuz like buns and toppings are all designed for em, but weird ass chicken drums? Nasty.

Yeah. I don't really fuck with the burgers, but putting something in sandwich form is just convenient. I fully get it. This is just odd.

Im eating pork shaped like broccoli and flavored with pachouli oil

some people "eat with their eyes", i dont get it but the looks of the food they're eating have a big effect.

Ok tough boomers

On one hand I feel ya, on the other hand this shit usually looks gross

TC's pic looks like drumsticks, i'd imagine the reasoning is that it'll make people think they taste more like real drumsticks? it probably looks slightly better on the box either way, which is probably the real reason they're shaped that way now that i think about it.

The vegans Ive known have all just been pretty regular people. One time one was mean to me but I dont think it was related to veganism or dietary things. Just normal interpersonal conflict Im pretty sure
