There are valid reasons for veganism, but it's folderol to claim it's absolutely cheaper. For one example, sardines are fished sustainably and are very low in mercury, both because they're basically ocean mice. They're also all but impossible to nutritionally outperform for the price.

Obviously there are exceptions. But in general a vegetarion meal is cheaper in comparison to a meal with beef or something like that. That is true for most meats. So for an "average" meat eater it is cheaper.

Do you know what "absolute" means? If so, why say it?

The research has shown it is 30% cheaper to be on a whole foods plant-based diet.

That was highly manipulated by people who are completely lost in the sauce on diet culture. No need to make veganism into an eating disorder.

Veganism is a philosophy not a diet and the world’s trusted health institutions have recommended the plant-based diet as healthy.

Also btw Oxford is a reputable source. So you can’t say it’s manipulated.
