Could you point a few out ? I would be eager to try them out if they are available here in India.

I'm only familar with the brands in Germany unfortunately. You might have Beyond Burger available in India — not my favorite vegan burger patty, but I think it's good enough.

The beyond burger is decent, but there's no way it's fooling someone in a blind taste test.

Is 100% taste match more important than not supporting an industry that kills Billions of animals a year and on top of that causing a huge amount of greenhouse gases and biosphere destruction?

What if it's 85% taste match, wouldn't that be enough to make the jump to plant based alternatives?

Male chicks for example get thrown in a wood chipper.

Inert gassing prior to the chipper shouldn't have been that expensive. That's the way capitalism works unfortunately.

And luckily we can vote with our wallet.

Hmm not sure. Depends on how well it is prepared. But yes, I said, there are much better brands. But the question was specifically about what's availabe in India, which I have no cllue about.

Thanks, will check.

Oh they are in fact available in India. Will definitely try them out.
