Earth Day is near, and there are several lasting ways to help the planet. One of those is by adopting more environmentally-friendly eating habits. The ecological burdens of meat production are numerous, ranging from large-scale deforestation 鈥 studies have shown that almost four-fifths of the Amazon rainforest has been affected by cattle-ranching 鈥 to greenhouse gas emissions in which animal farming accounts for somewhere between 10 to 40 times the emissions of vegetable or grain farming. Even carnivore havens like Burger King are trying to amend their ways by piloting plant-based alternatives (eyes on McDonald鈥檚). Before the entire fast-food industry turns leafy green, here are a few plant-based options you can pick up at your metro Detroit grocery store.
Beyond Burger
Beyond Burger is the world鈥檚 first plant-based burger that is dead ringer for a beef patty in both appearance and taste. It offers almost 20 grams of protein from ingredients like peas.
