I am not convinced. Until recently I lived with a vegetarian and have been compelled to try most of the meat alternatives available in my market - none have been a convincing replacement for real meat, or compelling by their own merits. The only way I can see this happening is placing a ban on people born after a certain date from purchasing meat, similar to New Zealand's ban on anyone born from 2009 onwards purchasing tobacco.
Besides, the worldwide consumption of cattle is somewhere around 300 million per year [1] - if we aren't eating them to keep their numbers down the land will soon be overrun by a tide of beef.
