Veg* meat products

That was interesting (not really, but read on...)

I had a vegan turkey & cheese sandwich today, because no better veggie option was available on the lunch menu. Intuitively, I have a general distaste for any veggie product that attempts to imitate meat, because it's contradictory to what being a vegetarian is about. But in this case, I decided I needed a lunch and I'd try it.

Well, it completely confirmed my intuition. The sandwich was a great meatless option for people who like turkey sandwiches. But for vegetarian like myself, not appealing, because my palate has changed, and meat is simply no longer appealing to me in any form.

Does this mean I can't eat or enjoy veggie burgers? No, not necessarily. Just so long as they aren't processed to try and imitate meat.

Wow. Intuition confirmed and lesson learned ;-)
