It’s expensive, I like cheese, I like baked goods that don’t involve chickpea water, I occasionally like meat, I like mead, all vegan cheese is truly awful.
Also any meat substitutes are always substituents for highly processed fast food which I don’t eat anyway. As far as I’m aware there’s no vegan alternative to coffee encrusted venison with a red wine reduction.
Also don’t get me wrong, I do eat vegan food, I’m just not prepared to exist exclusively on it.
Also eating meat doesn’t make you a bad person. There are like 8 people in the world whose company I can tolerate for more than a few minutes and two of them are obligate carnivores.
It’s really not more expensive unless you’re doing stuff like, quitting hot dogs then eating vegan special hot dogs, or buying vegan branded goods, or eating out at vegan branded restaurants, or tons of vegan ground beef and cheese. You would want to make more whole food recipes that use cheap ingredients.
In fact it’s way cheaper if you’re making beans and rice and veggies from scratch. It’s essentially the cheapest diet you can have if you do it that way. Poor diets are usually beans and rice, or lentils and stuff like that. And not canned beans, but make beans in a crock pot or something.
A little bit of meal prep goes a very long way at making it the cheapest diet you can eat while still having good nutrition and protein. I’ll cook up two pounds of dry black or pinto beans and eat it throughout the week. Doesn’t take much effort at all either, especially with an instant pot.
True enough. I do eat a lot of beans and stuff and on occasion tofu, tempeh, and other such things. But I don’t like them enough to completely cut animal products from my diet. The same way that I wouldn’t cut beans from my diet to eat meat every day. I do try to stick to what I consider more ethical sources of meat (if I can afford it).
