Vegetarian Meat

I heard someone say that all vegetarian alternatives to meat like Quorn, Beyond Mwat etc etc... is all HUMAN meat. And, it’s a plot to “reduce human population” and provide cheap food to the masses. And, how fake meat is created. Most specifically, Quorn is quite “undercover” and we.. never really see videos?

So, is there truth in this statement?

Nope I don't think so. I don't think that the UK government allows them to sell human meat.

According to this :https://researchbriefings.parliament.uk/ResearchBriefing/Summary/CDP-2019-0045 It is already illegal to sell dog and cat meat for human consumption so I guess is the same thing for human meat.

According to this in UK there is not a law against cannibalism. So I guess you can eat human flesh.
https://www.justanswer.com/uk-law/6bews-want-eat-human-flesh-uk-possible-legal.html . A solicitor said that:
"However, if you were to cut your own self up and serve your flesh to someone out of the public eye, you may not be committing an offence and neither is the person who eats your flesh under the above common law offence."


And in New York they tried to get a license to sell human meat.https://benuevoice.com.ng/restaurant-in-new-york-gets-government-approval-to-sell-human-flesh-as-meat/ However we don't live in New York so..

Edit: I just found out that the New York article is fake:https://www.indiatoday.in/fact-check...462-2019-11-25. "It was originally a satire article meant for entertainment.

So no is not human meat. They have to find a lot of people who are willing to give their human flesh. If you find people who are willing to donate their human flesh and you get a license from the government to sell it then yes is possible to make products out of human meat. BUT SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE TO DO SUCH A THING.That is my guess tho as I found that cannibalism is not illegal in the UK. In the government website I can see nowhere the word human meat:https://www.gov.uk/guidance/meat-products-sell-them-legally-in-england. Apparently is legal to sell only beef, chicken, lamb,turkey and pork

But is illegal to put animal products in vegan products. So even if one day is legal to sell human flesh they will never put it inside vegan products or vegetarian ones. As in vegetarian products there is only milk and not meat.

Yeah* and the humans they use are 16yo's from Birmingham 😆

*Actually that's a big fat No. "Someone" isn't even original - look up Soylent Green.

Quorn is made from a type of fungus, tofu is made from soy.

No is not human meat. I am certain that is made by vegetables, dairy and tofu.

That is what I found about the current law:https://www.theguardian.com/law/shortcuts/2015/dec/16/eating-people-is-wrong-but-is-it-against-the-law According to Samantha Pegg, senior lecturer at Nottingham Trent University. “There is no offence of cannibalism in our jurisdiction,”

However if you kill someone and eat him you will get charge with the crime of homicide "In cases of serial killers or sexually motivated cannibals, the charge is always murder, she says." So no they do not kill people and sell their meat to you.

I just found out that the New York article is fake:https://www.indiatoday.in/fact-check/story/fact-check-new-york-restaurant-serving-human-flesh-1622462-2019-11-25. "It was originally a satire article meant for entertainment."

In the first video, they only showed the finished product. Not the ingredients or processing.

Hm...

I can't comprehend how vegetarians can eat vegetarian meat I mean surely they can't eat meat at all only fish, potatoes, fruit and veg. It's weird.

thats why meat has the word "vegetarian" infront of it

Vegetarians can't eat fish.
Quorn is soil mould from Yorkshire.

There is no Soylent Green conspiracy.
