“we don’t know… they just are.” Could be a slogan for the whole meat industry.
Its from Viz magazine! One of the UKs funniest and most sarcastic publications of all time.
I adore Viz.
They once printed the finest letter ever penned.
Also, this advert for flat-roof pubs will never not make me hoot.
Ah thanks. It’s indeed hilarious 😁
Haha! The Princess Diana and Jade Goody ping pong ornament is fucking amazing!
Ha ha fantastic!
Thank you! Everyone else posting here is insane
Made from vegetarian cows.
Add some lettuce and have yourself a double vegetarian meal!
We had this in texas but it’s illegal now.
I think it’s illegal in six other states too.
Reasons stated: Protect the economics of the cattle industry and to protect public health
No more beyond steak tips in my pasta, For the good of public health and to support the sale of real cow meat that I already never buy…
Growing meat cells in a lab and selling them as food is illegal in the states you reference.
What Beyond does in processing plant material into something that resembles some meat products is still legal everywhere.
Plant based “meats” are legal in Texas. Lab grown meat is not. Beyond is safe.
No, they’re not. They just filed for bankruptcy protection.
Ok, safe from being banned in Texas, not safe from shitty business strategy
Just got word that apparently that was misinformation. Beyond claims on their Twitter that they have not done so and aren’t planning to either.

Was going to delete my comment but since you already replied, I’ll just leave it up. Sorry for the confusion.
Jokes are illegal in Texas? I guess that tracks…
That’s the most vegan beef I’ve seen
Disappointed there’s no nut in it
Just nut in it
Just put your nuts in it *
Just put nuts in it *
Question:
If I ‘nut’ in it for you then will it still be 100% vegetarian beef? And would you still eat it?Depends if you’re a vegetarian ofc
No. That would add pork to it.
It’s a fucking joke, you idiots, how are so many of you this dense?
As dense as a vegetarian all beef burger.
That’s how you convert me.
Not me. I like my beef cake with nut.
Thank goodness it doesn’t contain genuine feces, only vegan feces.
Right? Right? 🤔
Okay so on ‘is poop vegan’, I’ll start: civet coffee. Is it still vegan?
In case you’re serious: definitely not, those civets live in horrendous conditions
So do the workers who made my keyboard.
Yes, but only if you got it from a civet that is roadkill.
So, if the steer dies of old age, surrounded by loved ones, would the beef be vegan? Sounds like the only ‘logic’ that could work for the ad.
The ad is fake and supposed to be a joke.
As for your question: I’d put it on the same level as eating roadkill or your dog that passed away. You could technically consider it “vegan”, as there is no exploitation or (additional) suffering involved, but it is at least weird as fuck and kind of moot, because the people eating meat wouldn’t eat it in the first place.
If you go by the literal definition, it’s not vegan because eating animals is not vegan, obviously.
Lab grown meat, too
Lab meat is a distraction to keep consumers from changing their ways. Like hydrogen for Big Oil, they keep telling us that this technology will have a great impact … in the future! Until then, we don’t need to worry and just continue giving dirty money for a destructive product to an evil industry. All while alternatives in form of plant based meat / solar are getting better and cheaper by the minute.
Seriously, did you try plant meats in the past months? There is no need to wait for lab grown meat anymore. Just buy plant based alternatives and get used to a food that tastes mostly like the animal tissue you’re accustomed to.The cost is a big turn off for most people. At grocery stores near me, the Impossible and Beyond products are more than double the price of the meat products they are imitating. In part because livestock feed is hugely subsidized by the government.
If the plant-based meat alternatives could gain efficiency through scale and experience to lower the cost below animal meat, we would see way more people trying them and finding what dishes they work best in, which would feed back into scaled market demand. But I don’t see that kind of explosive growth potential at current price levels.
Sure, this was not a political statement or anything. Only a mention that lab-grown meat can technically be seen as vegan.
Personally, I still have meat in my diet, but I do experiment with plant-based options like soy meat and seitan, and also play around with tofu and oat milk.
It could also be that the owner is named Crompton Veggie, and these are his Veggie burgers
It would depend on what definition of vegan you use
this is just dumb and I’m not even vegetarian or vegan. It reminds me of the kind of stuff this shitstain I went to school with would say, repeatedly and loudly to make sure as many people as possible heard him.
It’s literally in shitpost…
I like when people loudly broadcast that they are assholes, I tend to believe them and can steer clear of them :)
Ha “steer” hehe
Abbatoir Rd is a nice touch.
I mean… teeeeechnically beef is what a giant bovine turns plants into.
my BODY is a MACHINE that turns GRASS into HAMBURGERS

Good to see the users here are as good at recognising a joke as they’ve ever been.
“Made out of 100% real vegetarians” was the old joke
Hmmm, vegetarians.
*drooling Homer
Alpha-Gal is coming for you…
