I never seen frozen fruit, but frozen vegetables are super common.

How do you arrive at the conclusion that the best thing to do in the US is switch your meats? Every form from animal protein is going to be less efficient than plant protein and result in more emissions [1]. There are some amazing Kurzgesagt videos exposing how and why that is true [2]. So since we know that eating animals is not required to be healthy at any stage of life [3] (assuming basic access to required nutri…
>how did you arrive to conclusion that eating chicken is better than eating lentils, beans, etc I haven't made such a claim (here "better" would be solely in terms of emissions). What was implied was that the delta of the emissions from switching from beef to chicken/fish is (far) larger than the delta from switching from them to veganism (it's important to note that per grams of protein, dairy is comparable in emmis…
Also you refute the general scientific consensus among all major nutrition and dietetic institutions worldwide that animal products are not required to be healthy at any stage of life by saying “that’s probably not true”. You’ve got to admit how silly that is, right? Unless the “at the margin” part of what you said means something I don’t understand?

Is your AC on right now?
I don't even have something like that installed. It's obvious what you are trying to do: Make other people seem worse than you are such that you still have your excuse for meat consumption. And for what? As if it would impact your life significantly to remove meat from the ingredients of meals I don't know where you live, but here you don't need to starve without meat even if you don't cook for yourself at all.

If switching from beef to chicken is an option, and switching from beef to lentils is an option, and you say that switching from beef to chickens is the best option then you are indeed implying that switching from beef to chicken is better than switching from beef to lentils. You need not explicitly state exactly that; it logically follows from what you said. Also you refute the general scientific consensus among all…
I would advise you to read up on the history of the advice ADA has been giving throughout the years (spoiler alert: they were wrong about fats and complex carbohydrates) before putting your money in that basket that this is the "general scientific consensus". But this is a topic I don't want (or need) to argue about.

> from what I've been told most of the products just end up being thrown away because nobody is buying them Who told you, and why do you consider them a reliable indicator, for what you imply are all supermarkets across the globe?
thats certainly a false claim. no supermarket would be in business if they were throwing everything away.

I am 90% carnivore for a specifically health reason, it allows me to manage diabetes without extraneous insulin. So yes, eliminating meat would dramatically impact my life. Most non-meat foodstuffs whether processed or whole cannot provide to me the lack of impact to my blood glucose that meat does.
Also, I slept with the AC on last night.

Exactly. “A low fat diet including fruits, pasta, and cereals, supplemented with copious amounts of extraneous insulin.”

"I don’t get this appeal of turning goos and veggies into ‘meat’. Just make them their own thing. You don’t rly have to compete with meat." So, people are supposed to go without the comfort food of childhood completely and are supposed to never get some of the textures of these products? I'm not personally a fan of the beyond meat most of the time, but I do use other fake meat from time to time (Quorn, for example, o…
People are free to do whatever they want of course. As a consumer (and investor having lost a significant amount on Beyond Meat), I think this is a pretty bad differentiator as the product always going to be compared to meat instead of being allowed to be its own thing.
