    Only because meat is subsidized by the government, so their cost to the consumer is lower.

    Get rid of those subsidies and yeah, plants will always be cheaper than meat.

    Switch those subsidies to the plants, and baby you got yourself a stew.

          I guess it depends on whether you measure by carbs or vitamins. A major problem in poor countries is obesity combined with malnutrition.
