- Even though I have become mostly vegetarian, it is quite tempting to buy meat for the convenience and the fact that sometimes it is much cheaper than fresh vegetables (at least in the west). That's what I hear a lot, but I'm not sure it's true. Since being 'plant-based' I've not really noticed much change in how much I spend on shopping. I tend to buy seasonal and what's on offer, plus I pretty much eat anything. Meat substitues tend to be the most expensive, but I try and avoid these products.
