The place to discuss veganism.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

From the article "Though the taste of the average plant-based product “is meaningfully behind” the animal version, one notable non-nugget exception was a blended burger."

They aren't saying that plant-based foods are tastier than meat ones. Only that there's more of a desire for them from people because of them being plant-based.

It literally says that the only thing that people didn't completely think was inferior to meat was something blended with meat lol... Besides some nuggets, apparently.
