I don’t remember why I don’t like beyond tbh, but impossible killed 188 rats to make their products if I recall correctly, it’s not even vegan. If it makes you feel sick, there’s no good reason to buy it - there’s lots of other options out there that taste good.

Apparently it’s debated whether the one-time killin’ affects the veganiciousness

Inclined to believe they do feel bad about it:

That’s hilarious, I guess its true what they say fanatics always starve.

188 is a crazy low number, you think they only killed those 188 and just let thousands of others infest their factory? Every food prep company is killing way more rats and mice, only caring about those killed for science is silly.

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
