      Plant-based meat would be vegaburgers and so on, not tofu or beans.

        Plant based meat is usually made of peas or soy though

          The distinction is in whether it tries to emulate e.g. burgers or chicken bits rather than staying truer to itself.

        Mix black beans with aquafaba and some spices and you have plant-based meat
