I am an omnivore and frankly don't understand why a vegetarian would
seek meat-like flavor while distaining/giving up/choosing not to eat
meat itself. I once watched the preparation of a veggie-burger recipe
on CNN that involved at least 6 separate cooking, chopping, mixing
arrangements of perhaps 10 foods to produce a patty-shaped object that
would (after a final cooking) fit onto a hamburger bun. Why not spend
the same time and effort on genuinely vegetarian dishes that *don't*
have to look/taste like meat?
