Restaurants, please don’t make halloumi, paneer, “grilloumi” or similar hard cheeses be your “vegetarian” option because they are almost twice as bad for the climate as even pork is (and pork is already super bad).
I know I come across as a killjoy nag on this doomposting blog but I don’t fault any one consumer for being taken in by this greenwashing. It’s presented as the green, the vegetarian, the vegetable-eating option but hard cheeses are not plants.
I can’t really fault the restaurants too much either since they in turn might’ve gotten taken in by suppliers.
