I mean why not just eat the contents instead. Why eat a tofu hotdog? Gross. I've tried one it was awful. Worse thana hotdog and not even comparable to real tofu? If you cannot subject yourself to the real thing? Why eat something more awful? Like vegan cheese? Seriously?|||I completely agree!!!! When I was a vegetarian I couldn't eat those things. 1) nasty, 2)I don't like the original why would I like a fake? Bleah!!!!|||I am not vegan or vegetarian, but from what I've heard from my friends who are, it depends. Some of them don't like meat, period, they never have, however some follow the vegan lifestyle because of cruelty towards animals, but they still enjoy meat taste, but won't eat it due to their ideals. So a chance to have food that tastes like meat, but doesn't have the guilt, to them is a great idea. I've had vegetarian hamburger once at a friend's house and it tasted like hamburger, so you may have just not had a good version of the hotdog, or hotdog is something that can be reproduced.|||People who stopped eating meat because they didn't like the taste and texture probably don't eat fake meat, even though it's not really very similar to the real stuff. However, most people go vegetarian for other reasons. They don't object to textural, nutritional, and flavor variety, they just don't want to eat "real" meat for whatever reason (environment, ethics, health, whatever). This is kind of like saying, "Why eat sugar-free candy if you hate sugar candy?" or "Why eat low-fat ice cream if you hate full-fat ice cream?" Well, most people go for sugar-free because they're trying to watch their sugar intake. It isn't that they don't like candy. Most people choose low-fat varieties not because they hate ice cream (or cheese, or salad dressing, or cookies, or crackers, or any of the other items that are available in full-fat and low-fat versions), but because they're trying to cut back on fat for whatever reason. It's the same with meat. People who don't enjoy the experience of eating meat aren't likely to eat analogs. However, if they like the experience but not something that goes with it (again, many reasons for this), there's no reason for them to choose a product that provides them with some of the benefits without the disadvantages.|||Vegetarian burgers have a different texture and smell to dead animal. Also ----THEY ARE NOT DEAD ANIMAL! A tofu hotdog is just that, a salty, tangy tasting ( some people love them) sausage shaped thing you eat with mustard, Some people don't like murder in their mouth, and that's why they eat tofu. Some people don't like grease and blood in their diet as it is unhealthy, and that's why they eat soy dogs. Some people like myself like the tate of soydogs but really dislike hotdogs made with...welll that mechanically separated meat is the slime off bones and the sinew left after the actual meat has been removed from the carcasss, so go ahead and suck on that if you like. I'll stick to tofu dogs. WHo says these things should taste like YOU think they should taste? I personally think meat doesn't taste anything like as good as a vegetarian burger from Morningstar, but those meat people, with their 3X more expensive and unhealthy and death supporting products do keep trying! Cheese is a product of milk, and milk can be from nut, seed, plant of animal source thank you. IT's you that looks small minded writing this way. Yeah, vegan cheese! Seriously!|||Most vegetarians avoid meat because they are opposed to killing/eating animals - they feel it is immoral. But eating fake meat does not involve killing any animals so is considered acceptable to veggies as no animals die :) Vegetarianism is about objecting to the meat industry and the concept of meat, rather than the actual taste of meat. Hope this helps :)|||Are you being serious? People don't eat meat because they are against animals being slaughtered needlessly, not because they don't like the taste of it. Edit: But that is your personal preference to the food. I don't like tomatoes, so I don't eat pizza. You're trying to offend people for living their life the way they want to. Quorn is very nice, as is some of the supermarkets own branded veggie food, of course, some is horrible - but others will like what I don't like, and vice versa. Accept the fact we are all different and enjoy different things!|||you came on t a vegan forum to berate vegan food.. think about that. i'm a vegan and i don't eat fake me i think it was invented to give those meat eaters who hold onto a steak like it was their childhood teddy a sort of transitional dummy so to speak. also just because you found it awful doesn't mean everybody will. i also make pizza without cheese call the fed's i'm out of control.|||I didn't stop eating meat because of the taste. I have never eaten fake meat made of tofu, and only eat meat substitutes made of wheat or mycoprotein. To me, they're delicious, filled with protein and nutrients, and more ethical than their real-meat counterparts.|||Because there's a dish that they really like. They're opposed to the killing of animals, not to the taste/texture of meat. Because they have no choice. My mom was in the hospital, and the hospital didn't have vegetarian food. They got her a veggie burger. (I would have preferred to just bring food for her, but they were already in the process of getting her the food when I found out.) To fit in. My friends went to U-Dog, and I was with them. I got the soy dog so we could eat together. I like mustard. A lot.|||Because some alternative meat products can actually be nice. True, I have had ones that were terrible before. But it just depends on personal preference|||People like to trick themselves.|||Cause people are retarded and people always want something in the background even though tthey will never use it
