When vegans promote a whole food, plant based diet: "I will only switch when there are drop-in meat and dairy replacements"
Ok then I guess we'll develop drop-in meat replacements: "why emulate meat? So processed!"
It's amazing if you're into WFPB, it's one of the healthier diets out there. You're just not the target consumer of these meat replacements. But they're useful for some people to have a better choice. They're usually not unhealthier than the animal-based product they aim to replace (see meta analysis ).
Yep. The NOVA clowns can piss off, vegans were talking about whole foods long before they started the moral panic about UPFs.
