    The article you linked debases the study it is about because the study classifies cookies, wine, beer, chocolate bars and pizza as plant-based and then proves they are bad for you (shocker). While my study compares meat replacements with the meat they are replacing which is what we were discussing.

    And still your study declares it is healthier to be vegan:

    for every 10 percent increase in consumption of foods that were not ultraprocessed but still plant-based—such as pasta, beans and potatoes—the risk of heart disease fell by 7 percent, and mortality did so by 13 percent.

      I wasn’t saying it’s unhealthy to be vegan, I said the processed vegan patty looked disgusting and I stand by it. When you make a patty with ground beef or chickpeas/lentils it’s a much less processed and healthy product. I listed two articles, both which say processed foods are bad, regardless of being vegan
