Thirty-seven percent of households in Germany, 33 percent in the UK, and 19 percent in Spain purchased plant-based meat at least once last year. Over 33 percent of households in Germany and the UK and 40 percent in Spain bought plant-based milk at least once.

Certain categories are also making further progress towards price parity with animal products, a long-awaited benchmark of success for the sector. For example, brand-name plant-based cream products are typically cheaper than dairy in the UK, while Germany’s private-label plant-based milk is 13 percent cheaper than equivalent private-label dairy milk.

Evil omnivore here from /all - does anyone care to recommend a vegetarian or vegan sausage available in the U.S. ? I've tried a few but none were really palatable.

Trying to wean the family from eating so much meat but not loving most of the direct alternatives. Need to start looking at meals that aren't "replacing" meat so much as just not having it, maybe.

On the subject of malk, I liked oat though it was pretty thin. Fine in cereal but only ok in my tea. Almond is fine but even the unsweetened ones tasted sweet to me? Don't love how much water it takes either. Haven't tried soy or pea yet.

I have tried the one brand Beyond Meat hotdogs, I think they’re great.

Tofurky makes them too and they use clean ingredients.

You can also order more options from the online store Vegan Supply.
