> Although I wish there were more vegan food that didn't try to replicate non-vegan textures and flavors

There are. They're called vegetables, fruits, nuts, beans, and grains.



I agree. The original statement was kind of silly. Vegans basically say "You don't need to eat meat" to which a population of meat-eaters say "But I like the way it tastes and feels" so vegans create this burger, and then a population of meat-eaters says "I wish you didn't just try to copy meat."


I'm allergic to legumes and most vegetarian sources of protein are either VERY incomplete and/or legume based. I also don't do well with grains. I definitely feel better only eating meat + greens, with minimal other veg and sometimes cheese.
