I get that it's a meme, but what's the problem? I'm vegetarian/flirt with veganism; it's purely for moral/ethical/environmental reasons.

Indian food is delicious. An Impossible burger on a pretzel bun dripping with grilled onions, avocado, vegan aioli and mustard with a side of steak fries? That's also delicious, in my opinion.

Meat is delicious, and that's not at all incompatible with my reasoning for being vegetarian.

For real. I was raised on slop, now that I'm a vegetarian, it doesn't mean I don't like the foods I grew up eating.

I guess the point is that we don't need to rely on expensive substitutes made by the same corps that own slaughterhouses to make tasty, nutritious vegan food
