\nBeyond Sausage bratwurst, sweet and sour Brussels sprouts, and potato salad<\/em><\/p>\n

Beyond Meat’s bratwurst was on sale at a grocery store in Madison, so I decided to try it.<\/p>\n

Was it awesome? Not really. In taste and bite and texture, it was a lot like vegan cold cuts that have been on the market for a long time. Still, it was good, with a nice meaty bite. And, at the right price, it’s a good high-protein meal, with 22 grams of protein and only 190 calories per brat.<\/p>\n

It surprises me how quickly these new meat alternatives have become available, even in provincial grocery stores. Most provincial shoppers won’t buy it, which is why it goes on sale. Their thinking is entirely reasonable, I think. Why pay more for pea protein than for animal sausage?<\/p>\n

I would like to think that these meat substitutes will be less expensive than meat before long, as they ought to be. Then we’ll be making progress. A day will come, I think — maybe sooner than we expect — when children will be horrified to hear that people used to kill and eat animals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
