    If you’re serious - it’s because (and this is wild), many vegans used to eat things like steak, and enjoyed them.

    So, sometimes it’s nice to have something in place of that thing, and refer to it as such. Like a burger, or a sausage, and yes, sometimes even steaks.

    Personally I prefer imitation meats over mushroom, but some mushrooms are incredibly meaty.

      I guess, just never had that thought. The point of being vegan is that I realized things like steak and sausage and even milk are bad to eat (for many reasons.). I dont want imitiation steak, because steak is bad. Just like i dont want to murder dummies because murder is bad. Idk if im making sense, but i do find it perverted to make and eat “vegan steak.”
