        this study only looked at retail costs. it didn’t account for anyone who gets free or subsidized animal products, or who raises, hunts, fishes, or traps their own. in other words, it didn’t consider any poor people.

          they are not considering cases where you get free products from animal agriculture

          Yes and they also did not consider getting free products from regular agriculture. So let’s say it balances out?

            instead of guessing why don’t we just say it’s outside the scope of the study, and the study doesn’t actually tell us whether being vegan is affordable

              Brother even if you get meat for free the remaining food you buy would still be 30% cheaper if it was vegan according to the study so idk why you think you can just completely disregard that.

                if you are buying retail in the uk. the scope of this study is so narrow the “researchers” may as well have just blogged their grocery hauls.
