I am a meat eater, but I don't think it's a good thing. I applaud vegetarians and vegans for making a stand, but ultimately I think the only realistic solution to getting people off "real" meat are technological, industrial and political advances.
Assuming we keep advancing technologically, there will come a time when "fake" meat is indistinguishable from real meat, at least as healthy, cheaper and more environmentally friendly to produce. When this happens, that is when people will start eating it en masse.
When enough people have started eating it and given enough time, politics will step in to ban farming animals for food. This will take quite a while because there will be a hard core of people who want to keep farming and eating animals. I imagine this part alone will take a couple of generations.
