Fake Meat

[Quicksilvera]

It's all about moderations though, moderate levels of those fats to absorb the vitamins and nutrients is great.......but it becomes net bad for you with just moderate levels of those fats.

In what sense? Animal fats are very healthy, I cook all my meat in beef tallow if I’m not using the air fryer.

So much healthier than oils etc.

Where exactly is the disagreement here? Someone has posted a 'steak' that is plant based as a recommendation, that's all.

Surely we're all still free to eat steak made out of animals, plants, or anything else we choose.

But you can, and always will be able to. Lots of people will, lots of people won't. Or they maybe buy ones from places that are made like that.

Key point is they have an option to

The same as plant based food

You can't whip up your own beyond burger or fillet steak substitute

You can, and I do

A portabello mushroom steak doesn’t count mate.

I cant see the attraction and find it bizarre the number of meat substitutes ie bacon burger steaks sausages surely vegans should be interested in plant based food and stay away from meat even if its pretend

Because, like everyone else sometimes they want something quick and easy.
And, most of that stuff is bought by non vegans. They are called flexitarians

Home made seitan steaks and burgers are a joy. Healthy and tasty too
Much like those who make their own meat burgers

How long would we last if we had to hunt for food, a lot of these arguments (discussions)would be blown away if we had to survive out in the wild.

Why replicate something you find utterly repugnant like a bloody steak.

Vegans don’t find a steak repugnant
They find the way animals are treated repugnant

Just relax a little - you can do what you want, just let others do the same and stop judging

Not really no. Lots of people are vegan these days due to either animal cruelty or the enviornmental impact of farming. In fact I'd say it was pretty rare to meet a vegan who didn't eat meat becasue of it's taste

Perhaps they need more structure from toe nails, anus and eye lids like ‘real’ sausages.
