    Oreos are plant based, they have roughly 0% fibre.
    Hellman’s plant based mayo has roughly 0% fibre.
    Most Energy Drinks have 0% fibre.
    A full Diaya plant-based pizza has 32-40% of your daily fibre.

    “Plant based” doesn’t actually mean that you eat foods that resemble plants, it just means that you don’t eat foods that contain animal products.

    You can still eat like a 10-year-old who’s also a pothead.

      Yeah but that is just because the plant matter has been extracted and the sugars or whatever is left is being used as ingredients.

      I’m trying to make the point that extracting ingredients from plants to make food doesn’t make those foods plant based because the plant has been removed.

        The ship has sailed on plant based being derived from plants.

        You might find better success using whole food plant based diet to describe it

          1. Definition of a plant-based diet - A plant-based diet consists of all minimally processed fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, herbs, and spices and excludes all animal products, including red meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and dairy products.

          I’m using the definition of plant based diet. You seem to be referring to something you saw on an advertisement maybe?

            Great, now you just need to get every single human to read that paper and agree never to use plant-based diet like they have been using commonly

            https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/plant-based

            Based on plants; especially, of a diet, consisting mostly or wholly of foods derived from plants.

            The literally people would literally like to have a word with you.

              You left out this part of your source:

              It encompasses a wide range of dietary patterns that contain low amounts of animal products and high amounts of fiber-rich[3] plant products such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices.[4][5][6]

              If your example doesn’t include high amounts of fiber rich plant products, it isn’t plant-based. According to your own source.
