    People on plant-based diets tend not to eat a ton of plant-based meats, and lower income people are esspecially less likely to be relying on them because of cost?

    I don’t follow what you are saying about not being applicable to the US, and UK. Those countries are the modeling study most applies to and shows lower costs?

      As I said to someone else: go shop at a Walmart with somebody who eats meat, dairy, and bread as their staples. Try to match their efficiency per dollar when it comes to a full stomach. It’s very informative.

        That’s what the earlier sources looking at real world spending data did… they saw lower costs for people on plant-based diets

        I am again confused why we’re talking about bread here when that isn’t affected by a plant-based or not plant-based diet
