Lol BBC.

The issue is jackfruit is quite nutritionally valueless if it's protein you're wanting.

Just like bicycling is valueless for your workout if you're wanting to strengthen your arms.

Salt is added to vegan fast foods to give the same meaty, rewarding sensation that would otherwise be missing.

Oh shit, vegan food has salt in it? How come no one told me?! I'll better stick to those salt-free Big Macs then, to avoid that nasty salt.

A vegan burger from KFC in the UK, for example, contains 2.91g of salt

Because KFC is always stuffed full of vegans. It's just where they gather to eat and it's been that way for years. KFC's what vegans eat, and that's why they get too much of that nasty salt.

If your protein diet is made up of lentils and beans, you would be getting some but not all of [...] the nine essential amino acids

Yes, and that's the thing, isn't it? Vegans literally only eat those two things. Anyone ever seen a vegan eating an apple or a carrot? At the BBC, we haven't, for sure!

They might sound like a guilt-free alternative or a gateway for the vegan-curious, but vegan fast food alternatives are often worse for your health than the meat equivalent.

Yes, because the guilt issue here is about weight gain. The never-ending torture and murder of billions for our taste buds is not relevant to mention when discussing guilt here, of course.
