    Tbh vegetarian/ vegan meals are best when they aren’t pretending to be something they are not.

    I love a good vegan / vegetarian meal

      That was always my thought when I saw the meatless burgers, just try to make a delicious vegetarian burger instead if trying to copy the flavor if the meat one.

      This sandwich place near my work makes a vegetarian pesto sandwich that is super good I often get that instead of the meat ones

      Jein. I like the taste of meat, so the occasional substitute is great - and I also like to cook just purely vegan, preferably with vegetables only (no bulgur, rice etc). I wouldn’t want to completely miss out on the meat supplements though.

      it’s cool if you think that, but it’s demonstrably not true for most people who are used to meat. I have tried vegan dishes without meat substitutes and at best it’s okay.
