Coffee is a big one for me along with cheese. I’m waiting for cheese to get better with vegan alternatives, the last time I tried shredded vegan cheese it melted and tasted like plastic, although that was 3 years ago now, and I am willing to try again.

Coffee is something I think can be helped if people were more picky on what brands they chose from. I do not believe Starbucks is the most sustainable coffee brand, as they trained me when I worked there to believe.

Violife cheese for the win. Stay away from Tofutti/Daiya. Those are trash tier.

  I will look for that when I’m looking for shredded cheese, next time.

I wonder how chicory (and optional caffeine pill?) emissions stack up against the coffee equivalent. It’s close enough to coffee for me 🤷

coffee beans also require a hot humid, probably tropical climate to grow, so it probably be in places like tropical countries. cacao is similar too.

vanilla, is a wierd one the orchid flower is very hard to farm because it requires hand pollination, as the actual origins of the flowers pollinator is not present or is extinct, and orchids as you know are pretty finicky in where they grow too.
