Sure, when you are priced out of meat and fish, you are turning to vegan options. I expect a similar headline in a few years (from bugbasednews):
"Vegan Food Sales Drop in Europe as Insect Versions Hit Record Hight"
"Vegan Food Sales Drop in Europe as Insect Versions Hit Record Hight"
...There are also a lot of "Loving Hut" restaurants in the big cities of Czechia and Germany. These are run by a vegan cult who would doubtless frown upon the eating of insects. The food they offer is inexpensive, but no cheaper than, e.g., Burger King.
Even branded, imported, US grown alternative burgers are cheaper in the super market than a proper organic meat burger from the area.
I would not state that is a cult ‘cause there’s a lot of people with genuine good intentions; but I would not believe 100% in all vegan options since the traceability regulations are not clear and those certification bodies lacks certain transparency regarding of its criterias versus government regulations.
In Europe, it's pretty low-key, but still. In Asia, they have TVs in their restaurants that show their religious ceremonies on a loop, and the restaurants have a more temple-like interior décor.
I'm expecting the CRON (calorie restriction optimal nutrition) diet to become popular. People these days seem need to one-up or shock everyone, and vegan will be seen as too soft.
