“The industry over estimated the number of vegans, or wishful guesstimation of the numbers of meat eaters they could convert to (sic) cloven hoof eating patterns.”

The media blows everything out of proportion. If I believed everything the media said about demographics and vegans and other such nonsense... there would be vegan gay people living all over my neighborhood, but in reality those numbers only exist in leftist dystopic hallucinations.

“...and the chief operating officer, whom Beyond Meat had suspended after his arrest on allegations that he bit another man’s nose in a parking garage altercation.”

Sounds like a meat craving to me...

Why do folks who won’t eat meat want their veggie-like slop to look and taste like meat?

It’s as ironic as gays who hate men/ women, and then go and try to act like the very thing they hate. Women who hate men try to act like guys and gay men act effeminate.

Go figure.

“Beyond Carnevora”

If you ever read the ingredients of a chocolate bar.. it would be Beyond Carnauba.

The demoncraps will mandate it shortly as a percentage of required consumption.

“Wait till they shove bug meat and bugs in general onto the market like ‘beyond meat’....yeah, maybe that will catch on too.”

By definition bugs are not vegan. So the vegans won’t be eating bugs either.

I know vegans, and they spend a lot of time prepping meals. I also tried the Beyond Meat™️ burger at Burger King™️ and it was really no big deal. They slather so many other things on the burger you can’t really even taste the “textured vegetable protein” contained therein, but the texture definitely has that ersatz quality.

The stuff actually tastes OK, but it’s full of carbohydrates and is pretty expensive.

>All I know is, when the meat department of my grocery store was bare for parts of March and April 2022, the meatless meat bin was fully stocked. People would rather starve than eat that junk.

On the first serious day of the Covid crisis, so what? Late March or early April of 2020? I went to Costco at opening time along with hundreds of my best friends. After filling a cart there, I went to Kroger in the early afternoon to pick up a few things.

The store was very picked over, bread, milk, cheese, meat pretty much all gone. But there was this one end coffin cooler of all the fake meat products that was FULL! I wish I had taken a picture.

Even when threatened with pandemic death if you go in public to shop, people won’t buy that over-processed crap.

It keeps ending up in the local bargain grocery store.

(Its stock has slumped nearly 83% in the past year)

Their product is failing miserably.

I never wanted to even try it.
