Those Morningstar Farms riblets are not in the meat aisle. They are in the meat alternatives section. Beyond meat is the only meat alternative sold in the meat aisle, and I disagree with that personally. It's clearly packaged differently and clearly labeled as plant based so even with that there is no confusion.

Riblet is not a term exclusive to animals or meat any more than butter, milk, or cream are terms exclusive to dairy.

A small rib; specifically any one of a set on the outer surface of a boat, aircraft, etc., used to reduce drag.

I wasn't talking about Morning Star. A frozen item would be impossible not to have next to meat products in some way since frozen aisles always have extremely limited space and they pack them full of various different products. Also it doesn't matter if it's labeled differently if it isn't a meat product then it doesn't belong in a meat section. Should cereal be in a soup section? Should crackers be in produce section?

these frozen veg meat items literally are in a separate section. Not everything in the freezer is meat... In my grocery store it's the end cap of one of the freezer aisles, it's only mock meat, and the other veg meat stuff is in the produce section near the tofu. The vegan dairy alternatives are next to animal milks, yeah, but the vegan meats are separate (and all very clearly labeled)

Beyond Burgers are not frozen. They are refrigerated and in the meat aisle. They are the only ones sold like this near meat and that's intentionally done by that company (which I disagree with--I don't want to go to the carcass meat aisle for veg meat).

There are always crackers or chips in the produce section on a display.
