> Plenty of people buy vegan and vegetarian substitutes just to eat less meat

Ok, but this is "vegan cheese" we're talking about, not meat. Cheese is already 100% meat

Most people don't object to dairy products from cows, that's something that really only vegans care enough about to change their diets

Most people don’t like to think about it, but eating cheese is just one step removed from eating meat in terms of animal cruelty. Many calves have to die in order to keep the milk cows lactating.
