The #EATLancet campaign is a very problematic one. This thread is a compilation of articles that address issues of concern that the mainstream media choose to ignore.

Let me start with this article that I wrote with @docmartincohen:

Overview of US food availability data over past 2 centuries: dramatic increase in (ultra)processed foods, while animal fat declined. In parallel: a rising incidence of non-communicable diseases.
h/t @Travis_Statham

"The unprocessed elements of our 19th century diet–animal fats, whole fat dairy, fresh vegetables & fruits—were progressively replaced with more processed elements, including industrial seed oils, HFCS, and ready-to-eat snacks and meals" frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
"Data do not support the widely publicized “changing American diet” of increasing animal-derived SFAs over the first 60 y of the 20th C. Rather, polyunsaturated fats & partially hydrogenated fats from vegetable oils progressively replaced lard, butter,..." frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Financial Times @ft: "#Plantbased meat is losing its sizzle, with falling US sales casting a shadow over expectations that the nascent category would take a chunk out of the real animal #meat market" ft.com/content/61e782…
This doesn't seem to help their case: "Taco Bell has rejected a #plantbased carne asada from Beyond Meat. [F]ood testers [..] found it to be below the standard of moving to a test phase & serving it to customers" yahoo.com/lifestyle/taco…
"Investors expressed concern [..] that customers might not be getting the idea behind Beyond Meat"

Or maybe that's precisely what is happening and people *are* getting "the idea behind Beyond Meat"?

If psychopaths take over, #FoodSystems would look like this: end agriculture, eat microbial glop.

"replacing agricultural primary production with electrically powered microbial primary production [.] could alleviate agriculturally driven climate change"

Dystopian idea, & it will not happen. If he thinks that the entire world will happily substitute the foods they have always cherished & thrived on since the beginning of humanity for his company's drab assortment of protein-isolate imitations, his hubris is in for a big surprise.
No matter how much support he's getting from friends in high places...
