heh, well at least you're honest about the asspats. If health is the primary motivation, and you haven't researched it for yourself - you might want to. Do you remember the food pyramid, and how that was the consensus position - until it got exposed for being total BS? Or how regularly eggs, wine, and cholesterol flip between being good for you one decade and bad the next? These people cannot be relied upon.

It’s not about asspats at all - I don’t care what others think. As I said, I’ve made a personal decision to be mostly vegetarian for health reasons.

As for “research”, there’s plenty of evidence supporting that a plant-based diet is healthier than one including meat and dairy.

Now, obviously there’s the question of how processed meat-substitute burgers compare to less-processed real meat burgers, but as said I believe the evidence points towards the non-meat option being better.
