You’ve got breed a cow and feed a cow for months before you can turn them into mince. A slaughtered cow only contains 3% of the calories it consumes. It does make sense for plant based alternatives to be cheaper.
Plus it’s better for the environment. A total win win situation.
Maybe they could invest in taste and only be 10% cheaper.
Some brands do alright but others are very poor, the quality of quorn is terrible.
I have never seen such wild swings in pricing than Beyond Burgers in ASDA. Week to week, it’s like they roll a dice between £2.50 and £5.00 to decide what a pack of two patties is going to cost. They’re delicious, but they’re not £2.50 per patty delicious.
It’s a shame the increased need for plant based meat will increase the number of vegetarian abattoirs. Those poor soy cows :'(
I could demolish a Linda McCartney Mozzarella burger rn
Wtf is this post? I tried to follow the article links to the studies and it just links to their own website again or to other home pages of websites mentioned, even if you Google the so called studies you cannot find them.
They always seem to price the soya products similar to mince but I doubt they cost that amount to grow
It breaks my heart to see animals sold so cheaply. Bad enough that they live in misery and then die to be sold for a few quid.
I hope such a price difference happens in the States soon! Love that they are so successful and cheaper.
Ive switched to quite a vegetarian diet over the last couple of years. I make curries chilli’s and even Spag Bol without meat. It’s probably a lot healthier too. I don’t really buy cod or haddock either and get bags of frozen pollock instead.
Haven’t tried Beyond mince, but Quorn mince is about the most disgusting thing I’ve ever eaten. I’d rather rawdog a tin of surstromming than eat that again
Vivera plant based mince is delicious, imo it’s indistinguishable from beef mince.
Not a vegetarian, but the Linda Mcarthy mince is the single best substitute. It has bite to it, like the real thing. Qourn is absolutely awful.
The Beyond Meat burgers are pretty convincing when served in a bun with all the trimmings
I know this article is about plant based meat but it’s surprising to see no one considering cultured/cultivated meat as an alternative option. Whilst I appreciate it’s currently unavailable in the UK, I see it as a much better option than plant based alternatives and slaughtered meat.
There needs to be greater awareness and investment in cultured meat. Yes, whilst technically a UPF, I wonder whether it would in fact be a healthier alternative to slaughtered meat. For those unaware, cultured meat is the proven process of growing REAL meat, without the need for killing the animal, all whilst using less land/energy etc. the issue is scaling and costs. It’s currently approved in the US and Singapore but there is a lot of miss information on cultured meat.
This stuff is good enough to fool meat-eaters. I know because multiple times I’ve seen it done 🙂
Usually Beyond is very expensive so good to know it’s currently a budget choice – I still only get the burgers when they are on sale.
Not a fan of vege mince personally but I eat a lot of other vege stuff. Vege scotch eggs and vege cocktail sausages are pretty good
A glimpse of the direction of travel. Today it’s geopolitics, but over the next few decades climate pressure will likely push meat, especially beef, into “treat rather than staple” territory for most.
You can buy bags of dried soya mince for much cheaper than brands like Quorn. If you have prime then a kilo of dried mince is ~£6 but you actually get a lot more than a kilo because it bulks up a lot when soaked. Also, the shelf life is extremely long when dried so a large bag lasts a long time with very little chance of going off.
Plus supermarket meat is plumped up with water to add to the weight
Some how this stuff always gets a pass with the „ultra-processed food is bad“ lot
So I actually don’t like the beyond meat products other than their burgers.
I quite like quorn, the chicken pieces and mincevare decent texture – even though I eat meat.
My issue is this. I meal prep and quorn/meat are my primary protein macros for lunch and dinner, however mince works out better value per 100g still, plus with some markets they do a 3 for £12 offer on meat and fish, but that isn’t available for quorn ect, when I’m planning out meals that £12 is still better value.
