Fake meat doesn't really taste like real meat yet, which is one reason why they aren't selling as well as hoped. I think it will be easier to develop fake meats which are indistinguishable from the real thing than convincing the majority of the people to forgo meat without having an equivalent replacement available. Making really really good fake meat is going to be extremely hard, making the majority of people vegan (or even significantly reduce their animal product consumption) without it will be borderline impossible.
I respectfully disagree: while vegan cooking isn’t common for most of us, when you get used to it it’s not harder to cooking delicious and nutritious dishes. It’s also probably easier sanitary-wise.
Just to cite a few:
- mushrooms sauté - tempeh cubes in broth or sauce - dal
With CitiBike and so many bike lanes it basically already is a biker's paradise. Obviously there could be lots more improvements, but the people who want to bike already do.
