I eat a plant based diet and I have never tried these. These are transition foods to get you to eat a little less meat, or help you on your way to a different diet. They are not healthy. Eating a well balanced nutritious diet keeps you full, happy, healthy and is affordable. A plant based diet is not always about the death of animals. Some people just want to be healthier.

    They are still healthier than meat. For someone like me that stopped eating meat for environmental and ethical reasons, products like these keep me from going back to omnivory or flexitarianism.

    After over a decade as a vegetarian I probably wouldn't anyway, but my diet would be much less enjoyable and easy to maintain.
