I mean personally I'd sub it in for something with some protein, though you definitely don't need nearly the amount you get from a piece of meat.

And there’s a lot of alternatives for many different prices. I remember how people used to berate me for being vegetarian while growing up, telling me I’d die and whatnot.

Still here, after nearly thirty years.

Same for me! I have been a vegetarian since I am a child and vegan on-and-off for two decades. I am healthier than the rest of my family.

The protein-panic is induced by corporations and their influencers that sell protein powder, shakes etc.

Of all the things most people in wealthy countries lack in their average diets, protein is not it....
