    What scares me here is if a person loses everything - rare but happens every single day nonetheless - how do they recover?

    Even if they didn't fail so often, the feel of them compared to my late-14 model has me waiting until it dies (and probably going PC, ugh) and recommending that everyone I know do the same.

    You have a valid point, but personally I have a ton of anecdotal evidence that the imitation strategy works for omnivores considering a vegan or less animal-based diet. Probably a dozen of my omnivore friends love things like the Beyond Burger and eat them regularly.

    I absolutely agree with your second paragraph; I don't think these things have to be mutually exclusive.

    As someone who stopped eating meat when I was 18 and am now in my mid 30s, I do not even remotely miss meat, yet appreciate and value different textures and flavors. Same goes for cheese and eggs. I tried the Impossible once, and disliked it - but I am in love with the Beyond Burgers and sausages.

    I suspect there are a lot of others like me, who don't care what a given food might be trying to imitate so long as they like what they're eating.
