Beyond Impossible “Meat”

From today’s South China Morning Post Magazine

This is exactly how I came to give up Beyond Meat, the “meatless meat”. Also Impossible Meat. I looked at the nutrition label and realised that it was that per serving and compared with real meat, it has: more calories, more salt (5 times the sodium!), more carbs, more fat and more chemicals. Pretty much worse in every way than real meat. 

At about the same time as I learned eating meat is actually just fine. Then there was the whole thing about forests being stripped to grow soy to make fake meats. And I’d thought I was eating green!
