I was also curious about the efforts of the vegan crowd to get fake meat to taste like real meat. If meat is so bad, why would you want to get your substitute product to taste just like it?

Seems like it's easier to just eat real meat in the first place.

I've told this story before but I hosted a large family barbecue back in the 1990s. Naturally one of the family members proclaimed herself to be a hard-core vegan. So in order to accommodate, I went to the special store to get the special "vegan" meats and tofu, which she only ended up nibbling at.

After a while, my gas grill ran out of propane so I went to my shed to get another cylinder. Inside the shed was my vegan relative scarfing down a couple of hot dogs with tell-tale mustard on her lips. She was quite obviously embarrassed to be caught red-handed.

But I was polite about it. I never brought it up to her and never mentioned it to the rest of her family. Point of the story that a lot of this vegan crap is just virtue-signalling.

Reminds me of the song "Junk Food Junkie" by Larry Groce.

As if a hot dog, of all things, would be the thing to crave at a bbq. Shocking actually.

Big Time. Former friend gone nuts lefty a few years back proudly announced, several times, “I’m thinking about becoming a vegetarian”, as if were a Big Deal that everyone needed to know. Couldn’t wait to get his Tesla. Is still out of his mind over COVID. Went a year or so without going out in public. He and his wife had groceries delivered from Whole Foods. Seriously. And it is an hilarious fact that vegans will definitely find a way to let others know that they are their moral superiors within minutes of meeting them. If meat is on the menu, just don’t have any.
