The same argument is used to attack veganism, even though the diet aspect of it is cheaper (as long as most meat imitations are avoided, although those will get cheap too in the long run).

I've read that vegetarianism is cheaper than meat-eating, but veganism is more expensive, but I'm sure you're right that it depends on what exactly you eat! In any case, it's quite an odd argument for anti-vegans to make: 'You can afford to do something good and that's why you shouldn't'?

When i was a vegan my main protien sources was beans and chickpeas which are way cheaper than cheese and eggs, which are common vegetarian protiens.
