Meat-based plant substitutes

[Torn Mind]

Mollusks and organ meants can work. They happen to contain nutrients that a usually associated with plants, such as vitamins B9, C, and E.
The rest of land carnivores would agree about organ meats. They happen to eat those things first and only out of their dead prey.

Why not just call it meat?

The substitution is in the micronutrients rather than the outward "taste and texture".
Different micronutritional profiles. The more commonly Muscle meat is usually lacking in vitamins C, E, B9, and glycogen. The ancients certainly were on to something separating fish from land meat.

Folate and vitamin C are, for the most part, plant exclusives.

Organs of filtration(shellfish might be considered the "liver" of a body of water) differ from organs of exertion.

Ser, this is genius. I've done some googling and I don't see any companies that do this. I think vegetable replacement might not have a market but I think a meat based pasta/noodles/carbs may have a market. I will investigate.

This gives me a brilliant idea for a building material composed almost entirely of cellulose and lignin that we can use instead of wood!
