Vegan

Not gonna lie, I'm interested in a vegan imitation crab lol. Gardein makes a "fish filet" that tastes a little bit like the real thing but I think it's mostly the shape and the fry batter they use. I'm also in the same camp as you I think, I didn't go vegan over the revulsion at first. It got dialed in officially after working in ag. I am considering moving more into whole food territory though and using less meat subs, only partially due to cost. When I first went vegan, I had a goal to try and make dishes that stand on their own where you wouldn't miss whatever traditional meat component goes in. That goal kind of got put on the back burner after losing my job and getting hit with an extra helping of depression lol.
