Whats a more environmentally responsible choice for dinner, a cow raised on grass in a pasture or lettuce which was grown in a greenhouse with a CO2 enriched atmosphere?
Greenhouse "CO2 generators" are just propane burners, its not anything complicated, input fossil fuel, output lettuce.
In contrast, natural outdoor pasture grass removes CO2 from the atmosphere.
The greenhouse agriculture that grows most of what goes into a salad pollutes the atmosphere with excess CO2, raising cattle removes and sequesters CO2.

Because I'm sure if vegans want to make their diet seem less alien to outsiders, and thus potentially they wont be criticized. I've seen a lot of vegan people talk about this, actually, and they consider "meat imitations" to be more of appealing to the people who eat a hamburger a day, compared to vegan food.

Whether you eat the salad or the cow, the salad still gets grown regardless.
In the case of eating the cow, the cow eats the salad. Whereas you can just eat the salad directly instead. And it takes a lot of salad to make a full-grown cow.

They do this to try to appeal to meat eaters. Impossible chicken is not aimed at vegetarians/vegans. It's aimed at meat eaters who want to eat less meat for whatever reason. I don't think such people really exist and view them more as a cope/fantasy that some vegans have. This belief that inside every person is a natural vegan who has somehow been tricked by the culture into eating meat is irrational and has no basis in observable reality.

The process of making convincing fake meat doesn't work because some guy who hasn't had chicken since 2003 and is unwilling to eat it for comparison for moral reasons, while working on an alleged substitute with taste being a very important property of people adopting that substitute, isn't going to be able to get the flavor or texture right even if it is possible entirely from plants. It's a doomed enterprise led by someone incapable of solving the problem.

Most vegans/vegetarians don't actually eat meat substitutes. I am mostly vegetarian due to taste preferences, and I primarily eat vegetable soup and rice with nothing pretending to be meat. When I shop I don't think "what do I get instead of meat?". I just buy the stuff I like and when that's done I have something like a box of quinoa, some rice, some tomatoes, some button mushrooms and a case of diet shasta.

If someone gave me a lab to make fake chicken I'd have a better chance of pulling it off than most of the current researchers, because I am willing to eat reference tendies to make sure my fake chicken is similar enough to the real one (As mentioned my effective vegetarianism is a taste preference, not a moral stance. You can pay me to eat meat).

Even if I personally developed a perfect plant based chicken, I would not regularly eat it, as it imitates something else I don't regularly eat or particularly enjoy. I would also expect even a perfect replacement to fail horribly unless it is artificially promoted and real meat is artificially withdrawn.

No, they do this to try to expand their numbers with "alternatives". Vegan meat substitutes are sort of like the food equivalent of Chick Tracts.

https://chick.com/products/category?type=tracts

A Chick Tract pretends to be a comic book to try to get children who like comics to read about Jesus. The audience is kids who want comics, not adults who already believe in Jesus and are producing the tracts.

They usually fail because they are very low quality, and very boring. A Chick Tract contains the absolute bare minimum effort to get a reader to the Jesus part. It is a charade where the part interesting to the target audience barely exists in the actual book. This makes them ineffective. When I was a kid it was much more common to see another kid ripping a Chick Tract apart to get little sheets of paper to make paper airplanes from, than actually reading them. You never saw a real comic treated the same way, because those were worth reading. Superman or whatever was a genuine article and not religious bait-and-switch.

Vegan meat substitutes are analogous to this. The vegan fantasy is that some combination of social pressure/education and presenting "alternatives" will lead to people dropping meat for plant based alternatives.

This utterly fails in practice because Impossible Chicken tastes like deep-fried pencil erasers and the targeted audience doesn't care about the vegan's proposed ethic. They just want a good meal and Impossible Chicken is incapable of giving them one.
