Funny enough, this is the original definition. You are the one using the new "fancy" definitions.
Wiki:
The word meat comes from the Old English word mete, which referred to food in general. The term is related to mad in Danish, mat in Swedish and Norwegian, and matur in Icelandic and Faroese, which also mean 'food'. The word mete also exists in Old Frisian (and to a lesser extent, modern West Frisian) to denote important food, differentiating it from swiets (sweets) and dierfied (animal feed).
- alacombe 6y agoThis is at best dishonest, if you really referred to that definition, you would use "meat", not "imitation meat"/"fake meat"/"plant based meat". Everything in the marketing of that stuff is made to mimic meat-as-in-animal-muscle meat. If you want a burger, go eat a freaking slaughtered cow patty burger, don't be all fancy with that highly process crap.

- alacombe 6y agoI am not hiding. Now if you have a problem with me, I'd be happy to resolve that different in person.
- hamax 6y agoYou really don't have to defend your masculinity to me. I promise that I, or anyone else, won't think anything less of you if you'll replace steak with quinoa burger from time to time. It will be good for you and the environment! Have a good one.
- alacombe 6y agoYou make an ad-hominem attack, I stand by it. Whether or not you walk your talk is not my problem.
