There's also a problem with discovery: If the meat alternative section is directly adjacent to the real meat, vegetarians and vegans are a lot less likely to discover it.
- Broken_Hippo 4y agoThis just isn't true. It is actually really common to have this section near the meats. Vegetarian meats are usually (but not always) either kept chilled or frozen, so it simply gets put somewhere around dairy and meat. For refrigerated sections, it is usually but not always in its own section. For the freezers, it is just kept in a section with space. Of course, there are exceptions and sometimes it is just mixed in with regular product. Vegan cheese with the cheeses and ground "meat" with the other ground meat. Most vegetarians and vegans I know seek the stuff out and learn where to look for it - including myself (not quite vegetarian, but a pescetarian that leans very heavily towards veggie)
