if vegan is so fucking good, why are they trying to imitate meat all the time? If you want to taste meat, eat meat. If meat is offensive to you, then don't try to fucking create a meat taste

I'm going to be pedantic here, because it's sometimes my favourite thing to be. But "Vegan Meat" is an oxymoron.

Meat is specifically defined as the flesh or edible parts of animals.

These aren't Vegan Meat brands, they're Meat Substitute brands.

No, vegan meat exists, because I use it in that way.

It isn't about taste, it is about not being able to replace the nutritional value of the meat serving with the Vegan alternative. Vegan food is delicious, but it has issues getting everything you need into your body when replacing things found specifically in meats.

Vegan meat is a fools errand, you end up making something that tastes like a processed mcnugget and has 10x the ingredients compared to just using animal meat. I would rather see (less processed) meat alternative foods that stand up on their own rather than trying to emulate the flavour and texture of meat :/

These exist and you not knowing shows you never cared to wander into that isle of the supermarket
