Hola
Now let's hear from a carnivore.
Most "tastes just like beef" products are made from processed soy,(not going to list references because they are easy to find). The processing destroys a lot of the nutrients. To make them taste like beef, they are loaded with a lot of chemicals. I checked out one fake beef burger and the list of additives was more than 20. That coupled with fact that soy is loaded with phytoestrogens, make them undesirable for me. Phytoestrogens are hormone mimicers and are not good.

Agreed! Meat substitutes like Impassable Beef and Beneath Meat scare the bejeezus out of me. Who knows what is inside them!? And the current meat substitutes don't even try to pretend that they are healthy. They say they are "healthier" than beef. That is setting the bar pretty darn low.

This is why places such as Entre Zankas are so important. They don't try to imitate meat; they aim to surpass meat. They offer an alternative to meat that is delightfully disarming and delicious. "I didn't know plant-based / vegan food could taste so good!" is what you hear people say. They use seeds, nuts, whole grains, legumes, and vegetables to make dishes that have similar textures to meat but are far tastier and far healthier.

We are know that climate change is going to change our lives in many different ways. One of them will be our food supply. It is only a matter of time.
