As someone who was a vegan for a short stretch years ago, I can say that by far the best vegan food is the stuff that doesn't pretend to be meat and instead embraces what it is. I never really understood the logic behind fake meat because it'll never been close to as good, and if anything just reminds people how great meat tastes. Think of it from the other direction, their isn't a market of meat products designed to taste and feel like fruit and veggies.

@greenfoliage Жыл бұрын

Agreed! Not a vegan but I have strong preference for vegetables. There are plenty of dishes in Asia that are highly flavorful, rich in texture, spicy or savory, and still vegan friendly. I never understood the obsession with replicating meat, especially when from what i know, veggies are delicious!

@caffeinatedpossum Жыл бұрын

For that end bit about the flavor stuff, that's mostly because we do live in a meat-dominant society. I for one am a meateater and highly prefer them to vegetables, but that's more of an ASD thing for me, very picky about textures and whatnot.

To be fair, could imagine this working well in a sauced up pulled "pork" sandwich perhaps?

The main issue I see is that it's not just the taste but texture. As far as the "taste processed" part, that's 100% correct from what I've read. There's an article I read a while back that talked about how plant-based meats aren't that much healthier than their regular meat counterparts. They can use excess amounts of unhealthy flavoring additives to give it the texture/look of meat while lacking in the flavor department.

Immitation meat are so processed and artificial that they really harm your body more than actual meat. Your body won't know how to properly digest it, many have suffered inflamation, indigestion and other dietary problems after prolonged consumption. Also the plant based protein in it are in no way similar to real meat protein, lacking in many key nutrients, so it can't actually replace meat in your diet. If you really have a problem with meat just go full vegan and eat other less processed soy based product like tofu for your protein demands, plus vitamin and mineral supplements for whats missing. Don't come any where close to immitation meat as they are right now because they're not good for you.
