I wonder if some of the health impacts of being vegan could be mitigated with single cell protein. For methane SCP fed to salmon, just a little compared to fully vegan (soy) diet showed a big improvement in gut health. I’d be most confident that this would port to other obligate carnivores like cats, but I could see it being beneficial for dogs and humans as well. Unfortunately, methane SCP is not yet approved for human food, but hydrogen SCP is in some places. Quorn is also SCP (fungal), so any studies on whether that helps?
