There's a good amount of wasted food that could be used, but you suddenly have a whole world not eating meat, eggs, dairy, and all plant based, then there will be a temporary shortage on everything
On the other side, animal feed demand will drop, suddenly humans will be eating the feed stock for livestock. It wont be great, but it will help ease the transition.
If you've ever tried feed grain corn vs sweet corn...its going to be a hard sell lol
Well, if the alternative is starving to death, I imagine we'll figure it out.
Sure, temporary shortages of some things I could totally see. But there should generally be enough food around even if it means eating something you may not like as much for a bit.
In time for sure. It takes 16 x the amount of plant protein to feed/ create the same 1x beef protien. So overtime we could feed everyone easily. Its the interim that will be a mess.
You can also eat things other than protein. We have shitloads of grains.
