    We have an influx of plant-based aka vegan replacement products. While they still need to get cheaper (relative to animal products; also, hello EU subsidy system!), there is a chance that these products could replace a large portion of animal products while being healthier, environmentally more friendly and more efficient to produce.

      All evidence points to the contrary regarding health. Animal products are much more nutrient dense, and contain vitamins and minerals that don’t exist in plants and others that are much more bioavailable than their inferior plant versions, such as iron, protein and vitamin A.
