My biggest complain with all these vegan alternatives, is the price. If you are selling fake chicken thats the same price as regular chicken, It is exploitation.
If everything was equal (scale of production, subsidies, decades of shipping logistics worked out) I’d agree, but I don’t think vegan cheese is anywhere near that.
A good start would be to remove subsidies for livestock and their feedstocks. I think that would already bring the cost of vegan alternatives a lot closer.
