@AnonySchmoose; There's an ecological advantage to eating lower on the food chain....more plants, in other words.
There's also lots of research and development of plant proteins with the "feel" and "flavor" of meats - to help those who have "acquired the taste" to transition.
Good video. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks!
Am in favor of the ecological advantage to eating more plants.
Am not against eating meat, just far less. For some people it may be healthier to eat plant proteins as substitute for meat. Don't know what to say to confirmed meat eaters. The meat eating credo seems to be as personal as a religion.
