Plant-Based Meat In The Netherlands Is Now Cheaper Than Real Meat

Newly released metrics reveal that plant-based and faux meats in The Netherlands are cheaper than actual meats.

Currently many Dutch farmers and protestors have been making numerous demonstrations on the streets for the last couple of months, because the government is planning sequester their land and ranches, and forcibly euthanize their herds, in a bid to meet their arbitrary climate initiatives:

Moreover, as noted in that WinePress report, The WP has also reported that the Dutch government was already investing multi-millions of euros into bringing these plant-based meats to fruition, and make them mainstays for consumers.

Now it would seem the government’s and corporation’s actions are paying off, as new statistics released by Questionmark, a supermarket research organization, in collaboration with Netherlands-based ProVeg International, claim that skyrocketing inflation and high prices in raw materials are drastically driving up the costs of real meat versus the faux meats.

Meat has always been a product that requires an enormous amount of raw materials. To make one kilogram of meat, you need up to ten kilograms of grain. Now, in times of scarcity, that takes its toll.

Due to the large use of raw materials, meat is much more sensitive to disruptions in the world market than meat alternatives. Plant-based meat clearly wins out on efficiency, and we now see that reflected in the price.

Pablo Moleman of ProVeg Netherlands, said

Vegconomist explained that ‘the researchers compared the cheapest animal meat products with the cheapest associated plant-based meat alternatives of the same portion quantity, with a total of 36 different products compared. The differences between supermarkets and the products themselves remain large, with many plant-based products having a different target market and retaining a higher price. However, the results show the price parity trend to be seen across the board.’

ProVeg and Questionmark tabulated the price changes and fluctuations between animal-based and vegan-based products, since February of this year to June.

In February, on average, plant-based patties cost 56 cents per kilo more than real meats patties, but the faux patties are now 76 cents per kilo cheaper.

The same trend was documented for chicken. The fake chicken was €1.16 per kilo more expensive, on average. Now it is roughly 37 cents cheaper per kilo.

Plant-based mince meat was 37 cents mor expensive in February, but are now a whole €1.36 cheaper per kilo.

Overall, actual meat reportedly became 21% more expensive in this time period versus the plant-based meats only rising 2% in total. Vegconomist added, ‘in relative terms, the research shows discount supermarket options Aldi and Lidl to offer the greatest benefits for those who exchange meat for meat alternatives, with savings of no less than €6 per kilo.’

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.

Amos 5:12

Regulars of The WP know that I have been meticulously reporting on all the many developments in the plant-based slop world, notating the incredible amounts of backdoor funding and lobbying they have. Early last year I reported on how Beyond Meat here in the U.S. was artificially and incrementally dropping their prices, in order to undercut the never-ending rising costs of inflation of meat. This is how the GMOs and processed foods were able to substantially undercut real and organic foods (before they had all the labeling, to justify paying even higher prices).

What people do not understand are that all these companies are getting bailed out, with blank checks and deep pockets, or, what are known as “slush funds:”

A slush fund is a sum of money that is set aside as a reserve. In accounting, a slush fund is a general ledger account of commingled funds that does not have a designated purpose. In more sinister cases, a slush fund may be used as a “black fund,” which is unaccounted for and kept off the books.

In politics and the corporate world, the term slush fund thus often carries a negative connotation, describing capital that has been raised secretly, perhaps from an illegitimate source, or to be deployed primarily for unethical or illicit purposes.

Slush funds have been exposed as being used to bribe or influence, to hide transactions, or to acquire non-public information or other services.

This is how and why so many of these vegan meat and alternative food companies can operate in the red for so long, spending multimillions in ridiculous ad campaigns, buying up shelf and menu space, samplings, and so forth. Yes, I imagine some of these companies will indeed fail and go out of business, but that does mean that the industry as a whole will – seeing as so many of these vegans and people trying to capitalize on the future, are just, as Stalin would say, “useful idiots” to achieve the goals for the people at the top.

Right now people all over the world are still resistant to this move, BUT, when the world’s economies finally meet their demise and official collapse, then these evil people can then put pedal to the metal on these goals, and essentially force most people to eat their fake crap, because the masses are literally broke and in immense debt, and begging for a morsel to eat.

[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

1 Timothy 4:1-3

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
