> I have one question: why do people trying to eat only vegetables (is « vegetables » still ok?) insist so much to call that « plant-based » food « meat »?

That don’t. They just read what’s on the label and call it that. It’s preservationists who see a war here: everyone else has moved on.

So you don’t even see the issue?

If you’re into vegetables, as-in you’re against meat, you just eat vegetables and you don’t eat meat anymore. You don’t need that to be called « plant-based meat ».

Only the people who are actually so nostalgic of the good meat they had want something called « plant-based meat ».

Who are the « preservationists » there?
