Okay, if this food is vegan or vegetarian, why don’t they just make it look like regular food rather than make it look like something made from flesh?

Now one can eat a vegan hamburger that looks just like a hamburger. But it’s not a hamburger so why make it look like a hamburger?

This is stupid. Another thing I don’t like about these processed (and I mean heavily processed vegan products) is that they contain a lot of garlic powder, a lot of onion powder, a lot of other things to make it resemble the meat product that they are substituting. S o you get a lot of these processed spices that are very strong to make it taste like something akin to meat. A quick check of the sodium content and usually these products are very high in sodium. But since now that vegans or vegetarians are eating a faux meat product I guess they consider high amounts of sodium okay, even though it really is not.

Because they want to replace the beef without you knowing it.

Same questions I have been asking. Look and “taste” like a hamburger, the vegan market is already covered well so why this? They want to sell us “knock offs” instead of the “real thing”. Easiest way? Make the knock offs indistinguishable from the genuine product.

Never understood this either.
If one is against guns, why play with fake guns?
If one is homo, why have a mate look like the opposite sex?
If one is against eating meat, why eat pretend meat?
Hmmm...
