Gives "I'm making dinner tonight." a whole new meaning.
I'm gonna make a fortune.
Tho OP has an interesting question, one I have also had and looked into some. As usual I do not see one clear cut answer, but rather a combination of answers seem to be the answer. I couldn’t care less what others eat.
The three answers I found believable are profit, vegan market to fill, and global control.
The one that interested me most was global control. After years of demonizing meat consumption in their meetings of the elites, they now have an option to push on the corporate food industry. It struck me as odd that virtually all the fast food simultaneously offered this. No competitor seemed to be out front, it just happened overnight and the commercials were everywhere. That is not normal. Normal is competitor A offers a better mousetrap and competitor B steps up to beat that.
I stand corrected. I suppose the companies are counting on plant based products coming down in price as popularity increases. I tried one of the Impossible Burgers from Burger King. It was ok, but if memory serves me correctly, it wasn't any "healthier" than the beef variety.
Then one of you aren't doing something right.I'm kinda glad I don't know any of you in the real world. I can't imagine I'd enjoy lunch with anyone who wants to argue over the "honesty" of a ****ing cheeseburger, plant based or otherwise.
Woman: "Hey, babe, you want a BJ?"
INGO: "Actually, there is no blowing involved."
Yes, obviously deceptive marketing. Nobody would expect it's actually a plant based food based on that marketing.
Yes, tribalism. Balkanization if you prefer. Nobody is making you eat it and linking it to trans/identity politics just shows that to be the case. Worried about what other people eat and then assigning them some value based on that is ridiculous no matter which way it's aimed, just another way to divide people.

This conveniently leaves out the global pressure on meat. Does anyone believe $40 a pound prime steak is an accident since Bidet was elected?Eat what you like, I just don't want to be preached to by anybody about the "evils" of my eating REAL beef.
I also have no plans to ever eat "Impossible Burgers".
Besides, in doing a quick search of the "Impossible Burger" I don't see how it's so greatly "healthy" compared to just eating REAL hamburger.
In most cases, the manufactured foods that are supposed to be healthy, are worse than the food they are meant to replace, and have many adverse affects on the body.Eat what you like, I just don't want to be preached to by anybody about the "evils" of my eating REAL beef.

I'm aware that the hard left wants to bring down the beef industry to the point that average people can't afford to buy beef products.This conveniently leaves out the global pressure on meat. Does anyone believe $40 a pound prime steak is an accident since Bidet was elected?
Never tried one at a restaurant. I mentioned up thread that someone gave me 15lbs of commercially packaged impossible burger. This was before it was available retail, or at the fast food stores. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't meat. Meat adjacent. But after some checking I think I had V 1.0 and they are currently selling V 2.0 so I don't know what it's like now.I've never tried one. IIRC, the calories are roughly the same but cholesterol is lower and saturated fat was about the same. Sodium was maybe higher?
You take isolated examples and globalize all of the fake beef as non-deceptive. You ignore the examples that do not highlight the fact that it is made of "plants". That is excellent cherry picking.
There was an analogy made with the trans examples, there is not a link between the two. It is a subtle, but important, distinction.
Tribalization. Balkanization. Hatfields v. McCoys. The point is that none of the OP was designed for that. Nothing of the sort has been done by anyone else. I think your virtue signal is coming across loud and clear.

They keep repeating this control stuff and folks keep dismissing it as something else…
Well, there's the whole pineapple on pizza thing, so...
