> Plant-based meat, on the other hand, can be both cheaper

Definitely not the case at the moment. Last week I went to Del Taco and tried their Beyond Taco. It was $2.49 each compared to the meat one which was $1.49. If I recall correctly, you can switch to an Incredible burger patty at Red Robin for $3 extra.

it actually is cheaper. its just the govt subsidizes meat and livestock feed so real meat is artificially cheaper.

The one for $1.49 probably didn't have much more meat than the other one. Sorry! Sorry.... Had to do it....
