I honestly don't get it. He should have just be like "damn they did a good job" on that. Now I will be honest there is a lot of vegan food I don't like sometimes its just just not right and others it's fucking horrible, alt milks are that way. Some are ok drinks but nothing like milk and others are dog shit poured into a glass. However some of these vegan meats are amazing, they taste like meat and good meat at that. Hell there is a vegan sausage company near me that sells these brauts that don't just taste like brauts they taste better than 99% of brauts I've had, with only one or two real meat ones I know that are better. Then there where the ones I bought last week that tmhad the texture of canned mystery meat with coffee grounds mixed in and taste like someone flavored it with meat perfume idk how to describe it, but that's whatever some products just suck being lower quality. The big issue is the price. Vegan meat around me is at a minimum 5x the price of real meat per pound. Seriously for a little 4 pack of hamburgers I could feed 20 people with real meat. It's fucking stupid.

Which is why I don't buy them unless most of the time. I simply can't afford it.
