A goodvegan milkneeds to look like milk and taste like milk, whether it’s a fatty version, preferred by bakers, or askimmedone, favoured by the health-conscious. And, for coffee-drinkers, it should ideally foam like the stuff from acow. For years manufacturers have had trouble hacking this delicate imitation game. Rapidly rising revenues suggest that they are getting much better at it. In America alone, $2.6bn of plant-based milk was sold in 2021, up from $2bn in 2018.
好的纯素奶要看起来像牛奶，喝起来也像牛奶——不管是面包师喜欢的高脂奶，还是注重健康的人喜欢的脱脂奶。而且，对于喝咖啡的人来说，它最好还要像奶牛产出的奶那样能完美起泡。多年来，制造商一直把握不好这个精细的模仿游戏。不过快速增长的收入表明，它们在这方面做得越来越好。仅在美国，2021年植物奶的销售额就达到26亿美元，高于2018年的20亿美元。
Pseudo-milks are only one category in the growingassortmentof passable plant-based alternatives to animal products. There are now convincing versions not just of meat but of cheese, eggs and even prawns. Burger King and McDonald’s sell vegan patties; Chipotle has made a plant-based chorizo. Last year the world’s largest producer of canned tuna, Thai Union, launched a plant-based line. Growing sales show the growing taste for this type of foodstuff . BCG, a consultancy, reckons that global revenues from alternative proteins could reach $290bn by 2035—and that is a cautious estimate.
尚可为人们接受用来替代动物制品的植物基产品越来越多，植物奶只是其中的一种。如今能以假乱真的不仅有植物肉，还有植物奶酪、植物鸡蛋甚至植物虾。汉堡王和麦当劳开卖素肉饼；Chipotle做了一款植物基的西班牙辣香肠。去年，全球最大的金枪鱼罐头生产商泰万圣设立了植物基生产线。不断增长的销量表明人们越来越喜欢这类食品。波士顿咨询公司估计，到2035年替代蛋白质的全球收入可能达到2900亿美元——这还只是保守估计。
Eager investors have poured into the business like oatmilk into a latte. Alternative-protein companieslapped up$5bn in investments in 2021, 60% more than in 2020. Oatly, a Swedish firm that makes plant-based milk, raised $1.4bn on its Nasdaq debut last year. Impossible Foods, which makes meatless burgers, raised $500m in November, valuing the firm at $7bn. Can the feast last?
热切的投资者大量涌入这一行业，就像燕麦奶涌入拿铁市场一样。蛋白替代品公司在2021年欣然获得50亿美元的投资，比2020年增加了60%。一家生产植物奶的瑞典公司Oatly去年在纳斯达克上市，募集的资金达到14亿美元。生产无肉汉堡的“不可思议食品”在去年11月融资5亿美元，公司市值达到70亿美元。这场盛宴是否能持续?
One reason to be hopeful is that alternative proteins have come a long way since the 1980s, when Quorn, afungus-based meat alternative, first hit supermarket shelves. Silk, an early soya milk, followed in the 1990s. Unlike those early products, which were neither terribly tasty nor particularly nutritious, the latest crop are often both. Clever processing improves texture, additives boost taste and a pinch of specially engineered peas and beans adds nutrients.

Better products and lower prices—the result of both improved manufacturing techniques and scale—have coincided with the rise of “flexitarians”, who forgo meat but not always. Some are trying to cut saturated fat for health reasons—a trend fuelled by the pandemic. Fitness fanatics on faddish diets want to developbulgingmuscles without building up cholesterol.
更好的产品和更低的价格——生产技术和规模改进的结果——与“弹性素食主义者”的兴起相吻合，他们不吃肉，但偶尔也吃一些。一些人为了健康的考虑努力减少饱和脂肪——疫情加速了这一趋势。追求时尚饮食的狂热健身爱好者希望在不增加胆固醇的情况下练出肌肉。
