What corporate interests are pushing against a meat centric diet that have any actual traction or power in the USA?

If you look at the actions of most of the heavily processed food product companies, they treat it as a zero sum game and are finding profits in working against meat.
Kellogs was founded by a Seventh Day Adventists, you can also look into Adventist Agricultural Association, though they don't list associated members directly.
Almond/Oat/Soy milk costs a fraction of what whole cow milk takes to produce and charge much more... the fats and sugars in the product are emphatically worse and it's treated as a health food with higher margins, with concerted efforts to remove/restrict/eliminate animal products from availability. Similar for advocates of meat alternatives.
I have zero time for this 7th Day tin hat stuff.
I asked about corporate interests with traction ... the milk industry has already successfully pushed back against the larger desires of the alternative milk sector, and most people I know who use those products don't do so out of a belief that they are "healthier" but simply that they are non-dairy.
ConAgra, General Mills, Kellogs.
The 7DA tinfoil hat stuff is part of the story... beyond this, sometimes conspiracies are true. Look into education materials used for higher education for doctors, most are produced by companies actually owned by 7DA.
7DA believes it's an imperative of God to stop people from eating meat. Unless you don't believe people would ever do something in order to appease God.
