The generation that grew up with climate anxiety and TikTok is quietly transforming what ends up on grocery store shelves and restaurant menus.

    Well, this is excellent news. This probably means that gen Z is doing more to fight climate change than any other generation.

    There are a lot of great vegan products available today. Thanks to those who came before, like the Tofutti generation, who helped get us where we are today!

      most of it is also pretty much indistinguishable from the animal-derived products

    We need more goddamned beans and lentils in people’s diets. They are so much better in like every way. Normalize beams!

      One thing I’ve heard said of gen z that makes a lot of sense is that we are very moral people, but differently moral. Our moral drive isn’t towards tradition but towards something new

      Gen Z has D&D, cunnilingus, and bisexuality. Nerds, freaks, and queers. Interracial couples, women in positions of power, and people talking openly on mental health and neurodiversity. Violent political action, vtubers, and rudeness.

      They don’t have a stricter moral code than previous generations, just a better one.

      Half the western descent into fascism is older generations seeing western culture progress out of their moral overton window and losing their minds trying to resecure a cultural legacy they can be proud of.

    Gen-X dude here. Both of my kids are vegetarian, which has made me more mindful of eating meat. I like meat alternatives now. No need to kill a pig or cow on my behalf! There’s other tasty things I can eat.
