    Yeah, I think anyone who eats it thinking it’s healthier is missing the point.

    I think it’ll be healthier by not having the issues associated specifically with red meat consumption, but from a nutritional standpoint overall, yeah… The same moderation should be exercised as with regular hamburgers.

    The point is removing animal meat from the equation to decrease our dependence on massive cattle lots and moving our intake to preference much more efficient plant based calories.

    But yeah, if they’re using palm oil they should move to something more sustainable, but I don’t know that it’s any less sustainable or polluting than meat lots.
