Get ready for steak night–even more steak nights since “Let’s Go Branden” wants to instruct the rest of us that plants and fake meat are what is “good” for us and the planet.

Of all the food and agriculture interests bound to be represented in the Biden administration’s discussions, meat — and especially beef — may have the biggest messaging challenge, extolling its value in the diet against charges that Americans already eat too much and that raising and sending livestock to market contributes to climate change.
