    I am getting somewhat confused so please can you explain something to me?

    Why is it that you can buy vegetarian dishes like sausages or lasagne etc etc that contain no meat at all (‘cos they are vegetarian) but are manufactured to look exactly like meat???

    Quorn lasagne for example, looks exactly like the real thing (with meat sauce) but is made without meat.

    What is the point in it?

    So you can enjoy the same processed junk as everybody else.

    My son said he had a quorn chowmein at school and it was nice (though I think he may have meant corn).

    I do like veggie burgers though, they are much nicer than meat ones providing you buy good ones (spicy bean are gorgous).

    For me, I don’t like eating dead animals, but I quite like the taste of lasagne, sausages etc. I’d just rather it wasn’t animal carcuss!

    Sorry to be blunt, but you asked!

    I can understand that ‘veggies’ don’t like to eat meat etc …. but WHY do they have to make vegetarian food look as if it is real meat ???

    If it isn’t meat … then surely you could simply make it look like vegetable matter and not have to mimic meat.

    Well as most average sausages are less than 30% actual meat there is not that much difference between that and a veggie one.

    I guess it’s just difficult to think of more forms for food to take. I think those sort of dinners are made as meat subsitutes. Lots of things I make at home don’t mimic meat. I guess the other reason is so veggies arent’ left out. When I was younger bbqs etc. were really boring but now I can have burgers / sausages etc. if I like. I also make halloumi kebabs and things.

    I’ve had this conversation (and many more offensive ones!!!) lots of times btw – why does it bother you? I don’t mind what other people eat, it’s up to them.

    I’m not so much ”bothered” Lala … more confused. It just seems to me to be a tcontradiction in terms.

    In other words, if you don’t eat meat … why make the grub you do eat look like meat?

    Similar in sorts…

    Why do lesbians use penis shaped dildo’s? And why is it that usually one of them is invariably the dominant partner with shaven hair and dressed like a bloke? Never really understood it.

    Yes it is a bit of a contradiction isn’t it?

    Like … Why is there only one Monopolies Commission???

    Nice analogy Sword

    I wonder that too

    How come man hating dykes – get their partners to look like a swaety builder , don a strap on , then ferk them like a bloke ???

    It dont make sense

    As for vegetarians – I bet there is a load they eat or wear which contains some extract of animal that they no nothing about !!!
