You've never tasted bacon?! Are/were you a veggie?

I couldn't live without bacon/bacon sandwiches. Try it right away

Quorn anything doesn't taste anything like the thing it's trying to pretend to be.

It's like a combination of cardboard and play doh.

If you were a vegetarian or vegan, why would you want to mimic the taste of an animal anyway? I've never understood it.

It's not about the taste, it's about the concept of eating an animal.

Quorn bacon is great, it tastes different (much nicer imo) than bacon. I've never understood the hype for bacon.

It still doesn't make much sense, if you don't like the idea of eating an animal then why eat something that tries to imitate the name or the taste of said animal.

Yeah this confuses me too but I asked my dad a while back and he said that he loved the taste of meat, he just doesn't want to kill them for it as he's an animal lover

I love the taste of meat but don't like that an animals died for it, in not a vegetarian though.

So I guess some vegetarians like the taste and everything of animals but don't like an animals died for it, but they don't mid eating vegetarian meats.

Because it's not an animal, that's the whole point. It's not about not wanting to eat the taste, it's not wanting to eat the animal. And we know it's not an animal so it's ok.

On the Quorn thing, I've been a veggie for 12 years and can't remember what meat even tastes like but the Quorn bacon product is one of the ones furthest from the animal version.
