Beef and lamb receive 580 times more in EU subsidies than legumes, a report has found, despite scientists urging people to get more of their protein from less harmful sources.
Analysis by the charity Foodrise found the EU’s common agricultural policy (CAP) provides “unfair” levels of support to meat-heavy diets that doctors consider unhealthy and climate scientists consider environmentally destructive.
It found beef and lamb were subsidised 580 times more than legumes in 2020, while pork was subsidised nearly 240 times more. Dairy, meanwhile, received 554 times more in subsidies than nuts and seeds.
Döner subsidy. Tbh Beyond Döner would probably slap.
Ew for beyond, but the heura chicken imitation thingy in a durum? That’s fire.
My local vegetarian joint sells a vegan durum with their own fake chicken and stuff so good that if they did delivery, I’d stop ordering actual durums forever.
I once fried some champignons and put those into a flatbread, and that slapped more than it had any right to.
