There's actually a lot of plant based meat that are chemical / preservative free, Redefine Meat comes first to mind. As there is a lot of animal meat that is full of chemicals, preservatives, carcinogens, and antibiotics use.

I would only assume most fast food meals, meat ones included, are not chemical / preservative free. That's a western fast food problem, vegan or not.

Lastly, vegan people broadly don't eat plant based meats. Like it get the joke... It's just broadly inaccurate. Meat eaters, people trying to eat less meat, and some vegetarians buy plant based meats.

Very true, great points all around

Now with that out of the way, this is literally just a lame “I've depicted the group I don’t agree with as the Soyjak and my group as the Chad, thus superiority confirmed”.

It was never going to be a balanced take

Literally everything in this sentence is wrong.

My dude... Says who? You? It's not hard to Google - you find lists of them when you do.

Chemical free food? Everything is a chemical. Not hard to google that

"plant-based" is not "meat". Are there "meat-based plants?"

All food is comprised of "chemicals".

Thank you, it drives me nuts when people say shit like "chemical-free". Everything is made out of chemicals, tell me which one otherwise I'll just assume you're uneducated and afraid of things you can't pronounce.
