🚨 Plant-based meat and milk have equivalent or better nutritional profiles than their animal-based counterparts. 🚨 That’s the main conclusion from ProVeg International's freshest study evaluating more than 650 supermarket products across 11 countries. The report says ‘continuing to consume high levels of animal-based foods increasingly impacts our health as well as the climate crisis’ and includes recommendations for producers, retailers, governments, researchers and consumers on how to increase the uptake of plant-based meat and milk. For retailers, ProVeg highlights the importance of: 💶 Price parity between plant-based products and their animal-based equivalents. 🥗 Re-designing the food environment to make plant-based the “easy” or “obvious” choice. Retailers like Europe’s largest supermarket Lidl have well understood this and already committed to rebalance plant and animal protein sales across operations globally, along with actions around product promotion, position and price. On top of health benefits, this rebalancing helps retailers meet their emissions reductions targets (meat and dairy alone make up almost 50% of all emissions of a food retailer). We’re curious to see how research like this will incentivize supermarkets to join the race to the top and help EU institutions realize they need to create a legislative level playing field, supporting those market players championing healthy and sustainable food.
