    Also, the whole “processed” thing is a bit overblown. Meat replacements are in large parts healthier than your typical highly processed foods.

    Do you perhaps have a link to a study that says that converting peas into impossible burger yields food healthier than actual meat patty?

    Because all I can find says otherwise.

    Heck, there was even a SouthPark episode about it.

      That is not what I claimed. My claim was merely that not all processed foods are equally unhealthy, as it depends a lot on the actual ingredients and additives, and meat replacements are often on the healthier side of that.
