    I’m a part time vegan and plant protein is quite a bit cheaper. Tofu costs nothing from the Asian shop and it’s super versatile. It takes some time to learn how to cook.

    Soy milk, beans, chickpeas and lentils are also very cheap.

    It’s just the beyond burgers and stuff that are horrendously expensive.

      As I said, that’s not the case for me. Here, I can get a liter of milk for roughly a dollar (in local currency), while a liter of soy milk doesn’t go for less than 1,50 USD. A packet with 500g of soy protein costs about the same as 1kg of chicken breast, roughly 2,80 USD. A pack of 30 eggs for about 3,60
