All I know is, when the meat department of my grocery store was bare for parts of March and April 2022, the meatless meat bin was fully stocked. People would rather starve than eat that junk.

Until this stuff is as cheap or cheaper than real meat, it will never have real market share. And that’s assuming it could taste reasonably close to real meat.

I still wouldn’t it though. Seems like just a bunch of processed soy and an unhealthy amount of sodium.

Nope. I have a high sensitivity to soy. Cannot consume it, nor can I consume canola oil. (Look that one up sometime)

So many responses on this thread claim this product contains soy when it in fact does not.

I haven’t had beef since 89-90. Beyond meat tastes disgusting.

Just watch. Dems and feckless Republicans will somehow subsidize them. Next step will be cricket powder for everyone, and meat not allowed.

I farm and ranch in Oklahoma, not big only around 50 head. It’s nice to see my cattle are kicking this imitation crap’s butt. Beef, it’s what’s for dinner.

“...and the chief operating officer, whom Beyond Meat had suspended after his arrest on allegations that he bit another man’s nose in a parking garage altercation.”

Sounds like a meat craving to me...

The demoncraps will mandate it shortly as a percentage of required consumption.

The stuff actually tastes OK, but it’s full of carbohydrates and is pretty expensive.

On the first serious day of the Covid crisis, so what? Late March or early April of 2020? I went to Costco at opening time along with hundreds of my best friends. After filling a cart there, I went to Kroger in the early afternoon to pick up a few things.

The store was very picked over, bread, milk, cheese, meat pretty much all gone. But there was this one end coffin cooler of all the fake meat products that was FULL! I wish I had taken a picture.

Even when threatened with pandemic death if you go in public to shop, people won’t buy that over-processed crap.

It keeps ending up in the local bargain grocery store.

The answer to this problem is clear…..Government subsidies.

You can only eat so many grass clippings before you go out and start biting other people’s noses.

How anyone thought this would fly is beyond me…

Insanely overprocessed garbage trying to mimmic something else with a higher price point than the original…. And everyone is shocked to find out it was a fad?!?!
