Sorry for not replying sooner, was preoccupied. It's an Earthling Ed video about the new 'hybrid' (plant based + meat based) products entering the market, in particular Quorn and Smug Dairy (never heard of them, but I hate their name it's on point), and how they are being advertised as better for the environment and health than 100% meat based products. He breaks down his thoughts on it and gives a few reasons why these companies might be doing this.
I genuinely didn't know of this and that this was a thing so it was educational for me. Also kinda shocking (but I guess not really for a vegetarian product line) that Quorn is selling meat.
This actually makes me so cross. We can't call plant milks "milk" because of their lobbying, and now they go and co-opt our stuff and taint it. The nerve of these corporations. I mean it's crapitalism, I'm not at all surprised, but it's infuriating nonetheless.
Are they at least labelling these corpse-littered products clearly? I've been a lacto-ovo vegetarian since birth, and a vegan for well over a decade; I can't eat meat without getting horribly ill from it. I mean the obvious answer here is to boycott these companies (I already don't buy quorn, and I've never heard of Smug Dairy), but I worry that other companies will follow suit and start sneaking corpses into vegan products.
If I had more spoons I'd go back to just making everything from scratch again.
