I'm still hopeful about the promise of plant-based meat products.
The rainforest is burning (or rather it's being burned) so that the world can have more and more beef. We cannot sustain the entire world having a Western diet of way too much animal protein. And I say that as a guy who loves a good steak. We need to cut back, and we'd be healthier if we did.
I truly want to see a world where plant-based is cheaper and tastes even better than real meat.
Why oh why does France want to fight this? No one is being 'fooled'. It's just a meat industry lobbying law to fight competition.

Why do you think that meat is the problem when it comes to health? > I truly want to see a world where plant-based is cheaper and tastes even better than real meat. I would not object to this, so long as the meat substitute is also as nutritious as real meat, or at least less nutritionally-offensive than current meat substitutes. Current generation plant-based meat are not only less nutritious than real meat but contain ingredients that people have no business consuming if they can avoid it.
