It's no secret that our groceries have gone up in price. The worst is the price of meat. A simple pack of coldcuts is close to ten dollars. Lamb chops are almost twenty dollars for a pack of four in New York City.Is it the time to embrace plant based meats?
The answer is yes. They're somewhat cheaper than the real thing and way more healthier for you and the planet. These days there are many choices and recipes so you and your family don''t have to miss any animal protein, I recently discovered Rebellyous Foods that specifically deals with plant based chicken.
It is a hard time for beef eaters and even plant beef ones too. Right now Beyond Beef is on the same price par as beef however there are less expensive alternatives.Try Quorn which is one of the rare non meat products no derived from soy, It;s made from a fungus, Fusarium venenatum. A pack of four patties is only $5.79 for four (about a $1.45 a burger - much cheaper than any fast food offering). there is also the long standing favorite Morningstar Farms which has a pack of four for $4.59. Their bacon is a dollar more but two or three dollars cheaper than pork bacon. Another plus about Morningstar Farms bacon is that it crisps up perfectly, providing the right amount of salt and crunch. It's perfect in BLTs and accompanying a tomato and mayo sandwich. As for fish, Gardein is your best bet. Again go to Walmart for their fish filets that cost less than four dollars for a package of four.
It is tough times for everyone. Meat lovers have it the worst. Yet they can switch over to non meat products and save a few dollars. That's a good thing these dsys,
