Meat free meat! PMSL, so there are Vegans who like meat out there, so eat some meat then!

Looks suspiciously like Tofu to me TTT....an unspeakable abomination.

Mmmm tasty.

Because they sell it doesn't mean they like, or eat, it. Same as shopkeepers wh sell alcohol but are prohibited by their religion from using it.

The shop is selling vegan wheat based alternatives to meat,there is no conflict of interest.
'Meat free meat' is just an advertising ploy.

[ToraToraTora]

I'm not talking about the shopkeepers or conflict of interest I'm talking about their customers, vegans who like meat!

[viv41]

Who said they like meat ?

[mikey4444]

To be honest TTT, I can't really blame the vegans. I don't think they are Vegan because they don't like the taste of meat....its the welfare and moral issues that they have a problem with. After all, isn't the smell of a bacon sandwich the downfall of many a Veggie over the years ?

Look at all that Linda McCartney stuff in the supermarket freezers....sausages, pies, etc. Ghastly I know but its all made to look and taste like meat, not ruddy carrots !

Poor loves........its no wonder they looks so pinched and miserable all the time !

One can not butcher a vegetable.
But a butcher of animals is not incompatible with not opting to eat properly themselves.

[EDDIE51]

Yes, most vegans and vegetarians do not eat meat because they do not think animals should be killed for food,not because they do not like the taste of meat. Remember the 'Meat is Murder' slogan?

It's nothing to do with vegans who like meat. It' s just a way of showing meat eaters that there are alternatives to meat that taste just as good, so there's no need to eat meat.

Of course it's handicapped by the fact that it isn't true.

[mikey4444]

Hoppy...your link made me giggle ! It just shows the confused state of mind that Vegans have.

[Old_Geezer]

Meat need not be murder. One can take a leg or two without death, much like one takes a potato or two without murdering the plant.

OG...two legged cows !

[Old_Geezer]

Yeah. Life might be a drag, but at least they're not a vegetable.

[lady-janine]

why does it have to taste or look like meat? just eat properly and imaginatively cooked vegetables.

ludwig - I agree with your first para., but not your second!
