Isn't this why you combine proteins to make them complete? Like rice-and-beans? Soybean is a complete plant protein anyway.
How do your protein and calorie recommendation line up with what e.g. the US or UK recommend? You think they're missing something? So are you saying you think most people on plant-based diets are likely deficient in protein? And what does that do to their health?
I only meant potato as an example of how you'll get close to protein targets by eating enough daily calories of even things that aren't considered to be high in protein, so with a balanced plant-based diet where you hit daily calorie targets, I think protein is a nonissue that's overblown.
Crop-fed chicken might be cheap, but how does it make sense that it can be cheaper than eating the crops directly?
