Really great article. Far too often this class-based rhetoric is used as some slam dunk against the plant based diet.
When you look at the surface it’s easy to see mycelium steaks or other alternative meats and think, “vegan is expensive.” The fact of the matter is that plant-based eating is as cheap and wholesome as it gets. Rice and beans are staples of cheap eating.
Really powerful. Thank you for putting this so eloquently. I wish this article existed so I could have sent it to my cousin who called my advocacy for animals by choosing to become vegan was a “privileged take”
