I hate this article and the way it's written. It's full of mean, petty stereotypes that make the author sound like an ass and its content seems to boil down to: "I like meat and vegans do, too, so yay for all the ultra processed substitutes because my palette won't let me consider a meal without something that looks and tastes like flesh in it."

I am really sick of how absolutely boring this new type of vegan food is and how much it's trying to be like meat. I don't want it to be like meat. I want it to be interesting and actually tasty, not some generic fake burger they try to make look like it bleeds. I get that it's allowing more people to eat more vegan things, but it's still boring and gross to me.

I am trying to reduce my meat and cheese intake and love to eat vegan and vegetarian dishes that are their own thing and not just recreations of meat based dishes. I want them to be their own thing and be great than be a good replacement for something else. This includes bean burgers which have a distinct and new flavor compared to beef
