Cheap protein.

a veggie burger is cheap protein without the animal stuff

Some of that animal stuff is important, though; can't get brown adipose tissue (BAT) out of veggies and BAT is fairly important in regulating body temperature and therefore in burning off calories. What Is Brown Fat? What Is Brown Adipose Tissue?
