RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

My hot take is that meat shouldn't at least not be substidized. Meat is comically cheap for what it is and everyone has to pay for it. I only treat myself to some fake salmon that is carrot based because it's somehow more expensive than actual salmon. I often heard the argument that poor people would suffer because of it. If they REALLY need to eat meat then, like I don't know, tough titty. Buy your own animal to torture.
