I was under the impression that locally harvested oysters are basically carbon neutral. Same for mussels and clams. Why would you need a plant-based version of those? Surely it can't for animal welfare.
- chrisseaton 4y agoMany people object to eating or using any animal products at all as a red-line on ethical grounds - that can't be news to you?
- hn_throwaway_99 4y agoI also can't imagine most vegetarians or vegans having a strong hankering for oysters. When I first tried an Impossible Burger, I thought it was awesome because it really replicated the taste and experience of a hamburger for me, and, most importantly, it satiated my cravings for meat. I'm struggling to thing of vegetarians that say "I'd really like to go all the way vegetarian but I just can't give up these oysters."
