It's more about the taste than the ingredients.

    Just as with animal-based products, there are good-tasting plant-based products and not. But the question that should be asked is: Does taste justify the exploitative abuse and slaughter of sentient individuals?

    You should care about the trillions of animals that are tortured and murdered for that. You should care about the environmental destruction.

    I'm not sure why you're making these baseless assumptions.

    The problem that meat eaters have with plant based meats is the taste, not that they're made out of plants.

    I'm not sure anyone on vegan circle jerk dot com cares what meat eaters think.

    I mean, by default they do or the instance wouldn't exist.

    baseless assumptions

    The assumption that a bunch of animals died because we’re more worried about taste? Is that the one you’re labeling “baseless”?

    Most folks who make this argument have never really tried plant-based alternatives.

    I’m not saying that if everyone tried plant-based alternatives, they’d prefer the taste to animal products, but the taste factor really isn’t such a big deal as people make it out to be.
