    I’ve never really been a big fan of “vegetarian meats”. I think the whole point of being vegetarian is to break away from the steriotypical mindset of carnivorous eating, and there are infinite ways of cooking vegetarian and even vegan meals that are not based on “meat” dishes in the slightest. Vegetables don’t need to try to mimic anything else because they’re just that good!
