What is a nonVeg/vegan? Struggling to understand how that isn't a contradiction. I also don't understand how you have a disdain for impossible burgers but not black bean burgers - you know they are both trying to substitute for a meat dish? This one is just a personal opinion, but I've had over a dozen different black bean burgers and none of them have been as good as an impossible or beyond burger. In fact, burgers were my primary example for years of why replicating meat dishes with vegetables sucked. The common issue is primarily that beans are dry/don't have enough fat and combined with a bun, it exacerbates the issue. So I feel the opposite - the meat substitute companies actually nailed this and have been successful in getting folks to eat less meat.

I'd love some recommendations on meat free bacon. I already substitute meat free burgers and breakfast sausage. Morningstar is butt.
