Comment on Beyond Meat hit as shoppers shift to cheaper animal protein

Comments

Makes sense as this is a weird product, market wise.

It’s not healthier than meat (ultra-processed with worse macros). And if you are avoiding meat, there are cheaper plant options already.

I didn’t understand people who wanted to pay MORE for veggie options and I think they were just burning a massive marketing budget.

I’d choose boca burgers if I really wanted a burger shaped thing. But just simple beans are a better fit if you want to eat healthy food that doesn’t come from an animal.
