If vegans consider meat murder, then why indulge in "fake" designer "meats"???

Is this not hypocritical? I mean, I find rape immoral and I certainly would not want to even *fake* such immorality at any cost. So, any simulation of such an act would be hypocritical to my own moral code. I find human trafficking immoral, and I do not support it in any way...so I wouldn't seek to emulate such a practice. You see where I am going. So, okay. If you vegan persons feel meat is immoral, unethical and XYZ to the third power times infinity, why create a fake version of it? I just want to know. Everytime I see a box of boca burgers and not dogs I just want to grab the nearest humanoid herbivore and ask them why these abominations exist. Well...WHY do they?mr thing...read it. Not a troll, just disagree with you. And I still eat meat because I want to. Top Contributor: Lol. have you? I have several. Everyone who doesn't agree with you is not your nemesis. Goodness. Bring the ego down a few notches, will ya? LOL.Raylee...It's just a question. Nothing more, nothing less. Offended?Krister..."Stupider"??? LOL. Okay.

If you're still eating meat:a) this has no effect on you b) this is a pathetic way for you to justify your still eating meat, by casting others as hypocritesc) it is in no way an apt comparison, because animals don't suffer and die to make our food, as you well understand.So get over yourself, read "Diet for a New America", and stop trolling.

Um... because fake meat isn't actually meat?I don't think anything is losing its life if vegans want their tofu in patty shapes instead of brick shapes.

Conspiracy Theory:They are products created by the evil meat producing companies to slowly convert the vegetarians back to meat eaters.I just can't figure out why they don't taste at all like meat.

Have you reviewed the community rules lately? This is considered a 'rant' and rants are illegal. You can lose your Yahoo privileges for breaking the rules.

I think your comparing apples and oranges hun.... Fake meats not only add to taste without harming animals but add additional nutrients which is always welcomed

You have to be kidding, right?Do "fake meats" require that animals must be raised or killed? No.Do other people's eating habits affect you? No.Is everyone that watches horror movies a hypocrite because they don't want those things to really happen to someone? NoPlease THINK before you post a question."Sauteed cardboard in a mint cream and aspargus sauce with tofu nuggets. Ummmmm. Tasty."WOW, you're even stupider than I thought.
