My queer platonic partner and I each had a #juicymarbles filet and some ribs for dinner with homemade potato wedges. We were both blown away with how good the #plantbasedmeat was. Holy fuck was it amazing. It scratched an itch I forgot I had and satisfied me deeply.

It's nice to read a hopeful essay about the future of #PlantBasedMeat. 🌱 And the author is right: It's a marathon, not a sprint.

"Why do vegans have foods that look like meat?"

Wrong question! The right question is:

"Why do meat eaters change their food so it doesn't look like an animal?"

Lidl introduceert ook als eerste Nederlandse supermarkt gehakt dat deels dierlijk en deels plantaardig is. Deze gehaktmix bestaat voor 60% uit rundergehakt en voor 40% uit erwteneiwit en smaakt hetzelfde als 100% rundvleesgehakt. Lidl wil het hiermee voor de vleesliefhebber gemakkelijk maken om gehakt te kiezen met een lagere milieu-impact. Ook dit product is een stuk goedkoper dan het reguliere gehakt.

On plant based meat.

For those of us that eat meat, there's really nothing like a good hamburger with an 80/20 ground beef patty and a great brioche bun. A good grind of beef and a good bun are really all that's needed to make a satisfying hamburger. The extra ingredients are enjoyable, incidental, and not always needed, at least in my opinion.

Today I had an Impossible burger. Something that I have periodically. And, I enjoyed it. It has a good flavor, nice mouth feel, and is satisfying.

But I don't think that it should be measured against a beef-based burger. Similarly, a beef-based burger should not be compared with a patty made from pork, turkey, or chicken. They are all a different sandwich.

So, we should embrace that there are good meat alternates available that have numerous benefits when compared to meat, even, as in my case, when the alternate is only periodic.

Since a cow follows a vegetarian diet really, isn't beef #plantbasedmeat in some kind of way?

[Commentary] It will be easier to persuade people to avoid meat from animals if they can eat meat and other animal products that taste like those they know but do not require raising animals. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2023/07/21/commentary/world-commentary/plant-based-meat/?utm_content=buffer4adec&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #opinion #commentary #food #agriculture #animals #diet #plantbasedmeat

#ImpossibleFoods has released a new product, in late June: The Indulgent Burger, which actually has more fat than its previous products, aimed at better recreating the taste and mouthfeel of #meat

If successful, this will mean more demand for fatty oils. In fact, the third ingredient on its list is #coconut oil, primarily from #Indonesia & the #Philippines

My piece, for @Vox published last month, explores the risks this presents for the future of #plantbasedmeat.

Happy 20th of #DecemBird!

This takes a little work to make, but it's an brilliant replacement. Is there ANY animal-flesh dish that can't be reproduced using only plant-based ingredients?
