Not the best figurehead for a product.

It's very popular here in Hong Kong. That and impossible burgers (as I think they're called). I've got a lot of (British) vegan colleagues so I've tried some of their stuff and it was very impressive.I recently tried some sliders (small burgers) in Singapore made with Beyond Meat ( https://www.beyondmeat.com/products/ ) the plant based protein backed by the likes of Bill Gates & Leonardo DiCaprio. It was really good. It looked like meat, had the texture of beef and tasted of it too. I was pleasantly surprised.
Actually my long term vegan colleagues love them. I ask 'what's it made of?' and they say 'i don't want to know'.I have not tried the new-wave of bleeding vegan burgers etc. I doubt if imitation meat-products are designed to appeal to existing vegans so much as omnivores with qualms about factory farming, sustainability and health. I have all of those; I'm just unenthusiastic about burgers. The saturated fat that comes out of the shop-bought ones is shocking. They must be 50% lard!
If I have the assembled ingredients to make my own, I would probably opt for meatballs instead. Generational thing probably.
I think I saw what you did there...linda mccartney has the best fake meat
Sunlight and air. Yeah, I have my doubts too.What does it claim to be made from?
It's fish Myth, but not as we know it. They are working on lab grown red and white meat also.Now we have fishless fish...

I make my own burgers with lean mince and if I eat burgers when out I usually opt for chicken breast, for pretty much the same reason you cited.
Try venison: Less fat than skinless chicken breast; more Omega 3 oils than salmon.

I met one once. Debbie the dog. I was a kid at the time and I'm really not a dog person, but Debbie was old and non-excitable (so I didn't mind her). She was fed a vegetarian diet by her owner for some reason (health reasons).I knew a raw vegan dog once. Most depressed looking animal I've ever seen. Spent the whole time looking at me with a face like "please.....please....you must have some flesh......"

"Plane shaming" people is already popular on social media, now I have also heard about "meat shaming" and "junk food shaming".
We better switch to eat salad leaves, or else risk becoming social outcasts.
"THat is not an 8oz T-Bone, it's not even a chipolata."Many women have meat shamed me, I don't even bother any more.
