This is something I don't get.

Over here it's cheaper to be vegetarian (not vegan) because of the absurd meat prices. Meat is unironically unaffordable where I live unless I happen to visit the fish market next town over.

It's just the ultra-processed fake meat they're whining about.

Actual food that simply doesn't include meat is still cheaper.

Oh yeah 100% I'm whining about like the fake meat at like restaurants always costing more than the real meat.

But a pound of black beans/lentils are WAY cheaper than beef and have more calories/protein.

Veggies and fruits are absurdly cheap here in the US. It's not hard nor expensive to eat healthy.
