And "peanut butter" doesn't actually contain real butter either.

Meaning of Plant-Based: Diets, Foods, And Products | Merriam-Webster

Yep, it has changed now plant based just means it has a plant in it. That is why it is so important to read the ingredients and NOT the marketing labeling on the box. However in some states it is a crime to use the word meat in labeling if it does not have certain animal cells in it.

What’s in a Name? The Plant-Based Foods Labeling Debate

Meatless meat is going mainstream. Fueled by sustainability concerns and an uptick in capital, food tech start-ups have been hard at work crafting new methods of producing plant-based proteins.

I'd say that "plant-based" is probably likely to mean that the majority or major ingredients come from plants.

At least when dealing with reputable marketers or firms.

The primary labeling should be clear enough that the consumer is under no illusion as to what they are getting.

The primary labeling can and quite often do deceive.
The ingredients label has to be correct.

A day of progress.
In town errands went well
Successfully hung remaining sheetrock, except the 2 pieces for the shower walls (dry side).
A bit surprised I have 9 full sheets left. I usually do better, but maybe I over estimated and wasted less. Regardless, while I could return to Lowes for a full refund, I decided to post on CL thinking someone may appreciate an almost 30% discount. If not I’ll return to Lowes for full discount and probably go to Costco to justify the trans cost.
A good day.

Ahhh ... ok.

I imagine that might well be the case ... at least for some folks.

Lots of fallacies and straw men in that article.

Personally, I'm not inclined to read "Non-GMO" ... and think that it means "organic".

Or read "Kosher" ... and then think that the product is necessarily "Non-GMO".

Coffee taste extra good today. 63° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 76° with thunderstorms mid day. .53" of rain yesterday. Good trip to Port Huron to visit with my 2 Aunts. Today gets me one year closer to the century mark. Just 21 more years to go. Today will be attending a birthday party for 2 RV friends. They are celebrating 80 and 70 years old.
Great Moon shot yesterday evening.

Everyone stay healthy and safe.

Good Morning All.

Summer is here . . . unfortunately. The electric bill goes up with the A/C running constantly in the house, gasoline consumption goes up with the A/C running constantly in the car, the water bill goes up with more showers (bathes) and more laundry and maybe even watering the yard. An excessive amount of rain in the last month or so has made mowing a bigger job. In spite of the yard being too wet, I mowed on June 3, 9, 14 & 18 with the bagger on the mower. I started later in the mornings than I would have preferred, waiting for the sun to evaporate some of the dew, and that sun almost evaporated ME.

And now I hope to not use the bagger AND to mow before daylight for the next 3 or 4 months. Love the quietness of the EGo mower AND love the headlights.

64° right now...high in the low 80's today. Maybe rain this morning...might be a bit steamy this afternoon

Chores: Dump run and a haircut. Lawn doesn't need mowing, so I'll probably pass on that today. So, get back on that flail mower belt installation, I reckon...been a rough last few days...long, tiring days...so I may well just kick back today

Yup...I researched the EGO zero turn mowers (my lawn is way too much for a walk behind mower). Like you, I like how quiet all their tools are. But, my lawn acreage is right at the extent of the batteries' charge life, and I'd really rather not have to tow the unit by to the house if the batteries discharged a distance from the house

good morning all
67 going up to 89 today in warmer more humid weather.
.30 inches of rain last night

Don, as soon as you posted that I thought egg whites aren't plant based, so yes I get it.
But still, this seems a lot healthier eating with lower fat grams than the regular stuff.
I find it hard to get protein to eat at breakfast while still eating something really healthy.

having lunch with MIL today, need to stop and pick up an indoor plant for her.

Happy Birthday Ron!
