It seems evident why ethical isn’t enough as we could just eat meat and only consume a nutrient slurry for ethical reasons.
There needs to be an economic reason and it doesn’t make sense that an impossible whopper costs more than a whopper.
For that price, I’d rather have a sustainably raised, organic whopper that tastes the same or better.
- ianai 4y agoThere probably is enough economic reason if the externalities were properly accounted. If it’s not in the price (and worse-subsidized) there’s no hope of the market reaching a suitable equilibrium.
- prepend 4y agoImpossible meat is substantially subsidized right now and it’s still expensive. I think veggie food is cheaper (rice and beans) it’s just this synthetic fake meat stuff that costs more.
