I’ve actually had some decent vegan fast food. The PLNT Burger chain in the U.S. is tasty, but it’s more expensive than it should be.
I’m lucky enough to have a few good local places with better prices. My local pub (I wish I could shout it out, but it’d reveal my location too specifically) has a few great Impossible options that don’t cost too much.
Business wise it is pretty normal for prices to still be higher though. New industries are always more expensive. They need to scale up to be able to lower the prices. There’s not enough competition to keep prices low. And there’s a lot of R&D that is being put into these products.
But it’s not a bad thing. We should vote with our money. I’d prefer to pay more now so these companies see there’s money to be made.

Plants are cheaper, so it should be cheaper yes
