Will vegans or vegetarians eat any of these new plant based “meats”?

I'm vegan but not a fan of eating the fake meats

I'm a omnivore but I won't eat the plant based meats as they're very unhealthy as they're so full of sodium to give them some flavor.

@LiamSawyer I didn’t know that

[Apple1996]

@LiamSawyer yeah I've heard some bad things about them. The only "fake" products I do are the dairy replacements but even those I try to be careful with. Certain things like almond milk for example is full of sugar and no good nutritional value. Homemade almond milk tho is healthy and a few decent brands out there but still gotta be cautious and read the labels to know what's in there

If it's plant based it isn't meat.

[Pterodon]

I 100% agree with that

I don't know what products you are referring to. But if they are not meat, and taste good, and are reasonably healthy, and are a decent price, then they will probably eat them.

Fake meats have been around a long time. The main reason is because most vegetarians were once meat eaters and a part of them misses eating meat. I've never tasted a fake meat that really tasted like meat or had the same texture. But if someone hasn't eaten meat for many years it might be OK. If nothing else, it adds some variety.

why not? People sleep on plant based meat, it’s actually pretty good.
my brother took me out to eat at a vegan restaurant recently. I didn’t even realize it was vegan until after. We got nachos with “beef” in it.
it honestly tasted exactly the same as regular nachos. Couldn’t tell the difference
