This sounds amazing, but there's no way these niche vegan products arent shitty for the environment I hope I'm wrong The process they are using isn't that far off from many other techniques we use for mass producing certain food products. Many food additives like xanthan gum are made by fermenting bacteria. The same is true for many vitamins, like B12. If you eat a cereal, it's probably been fortified with B12 made from fermented bacteria. If you have ever ate factory-farmed pork or chicken it has probably been given feed its whole life that has been fortified the same way. And it's really hard to make something that is more harmful environmentally than dairy is. --- 17 years on Gamefaqs, and I still don't have a signature. <cite>Son Of Spam posted [p:949343455] in I bought a...
