Meat has been on the diet of human for millions of years, while it is not sustainable. Ultimately, its substitute vegan meat gradually comes into people’s view.

Nevertheless, most people still cannot accept the existence of vegan meat in their diet or do not perceive the vegan meat as a food. Therefore, the article will interpret the role of the vegan meat in terms of contact zone and social trends in contemporary China and figure out its importance in people’s diet.
