    But then humans can also eat that soy meal to get their proteins. It’s pretty tasty, I eat it regularly.

      people do eat soy meal but they eat very little of the amount produced. if the vast majority of it weren’t fed to livestock it would just be waste.

        We are talking about a switch to a predominantly vegan diet. People need to get the protein they got from meat from somewhere else.

          i think that’s a hard sell for most people and i frankly just don’t see it happening. do you have a plan to make that happen?

            Well, if the first step happens (people going vegan), then other protein sources will be automatically in demand. A huge chunk of protein powder nowadays is whey, that can be easily substituted by soy, because of the sufficient amino acid profile of soy.
