Watch WRI (an #EATLancet ally) hitting an all-time low in its social engineering approach to steer people away from animal foods.

Clearly, this is all about marketing, not facts.

Appalling!

This is WRI's "Shift Wheel" strategy.

"Disguise the change", "make socially unacceptable" - can it be more sneaky?

And this is their toolbox:

marketing, play social norms, change dietary guidelines, 30-day challenges (Veganuary?), price wars, meat tax, *banning* meat from restaurants

Use “Cumberland-spiced” and “Field-grown” to "significantly increase sales" of vegetarian dishes and "encourage consumers ... by simply changing how dishes are described on menus".

I'm confused, was WRI not about our health & the planet? 🤔

If they try to sell you a "Feel good fry up", get ready for some Special K with almond juice. Or a "Field-grown sausage" at Greggs, for that matter, @piersmorgan
As a reminder: WRI is a "knowlegde" partner of EAT. The mission is clear.
