    Even in Argentina, where beef has long been king, change is beginning to take root. Recent data suggests that plant-based food products now account for about six percent of total food sales.

    Is that accurate? Is it really that low? Fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts/seeds, packaged junk like fried potatoes and instant noodles and soy-based meats and those caramel-coated peanut things… all combined only account for 6% of “food” sales? How are Argentinians even alive?
