Wrong in almost every word above. Veganism is a lifestyle. Been mine for 34+ years. Well more than half my life.
Plant-based is a diet. The percentage of plant-based diets and vegans is rising...not falling, so not a fad. My farts haven't stunk in 34 years. Rotting animal flesh, embryos and animal bodily fluids in the gut cause that awful smelling flatulence...not plants. It's you animal carcass consumers whom stink like 💩❗
Today, plant-based eating continues to be popular. The number of Americans who follow a vegan diet increased 600% from 2014 to 2018.
The interest in plant-based alternatives is evident; the plant-based foods market has increased 29% in the U.S. between 2017 and 2019.
In the research community, everyone agrees that animal products are not essential for good health.
