Meat substitutes offer vegetarians, vegans, and others a way to enjoy their favorite meals without consuming animal products.
Veggie burgers and other plant-based meat alternatives provide a healthier way to enjoy flavors without overloading on animal-based products, and are lower in cholesterol and saturated fat. They also have zero trans fats and no antibiotics or hormones, and are good sources of fiber, protein, and healthy fats.
Plant-based meat substitutes can be expensive and have preservatives and artificial flavoring, making them less healthy than advertised.
