    In my case it’s just easier to work towards not eating meat as the plant substitutes are almost immediately rejected. The impossible burger I ate went through my system in a span that was so quick my gastroenterologist figured my body went “nope”

      Same. I just wanna work towards requiring less of it and enjoying real plants that aren’t masquerading as something else.
