I haven’t seen fake cheese that tastes good yet. A good tip is not to try to make vegan food taste like non vegan. Just enjoy the vegan foods as they are. PS I’m trying the whole “give up beef” thing plus “be vegan one day of the week”.

    Exactly. I really dislike the taste of beef patty. But i tried a patty looking vegan product. It gave me the same bad taste.

    A good tip is not to try to make vegan food taste like non vegan. Just enjoy the vegan foods as they are. As a non vegan/vegetarian, I agree fully. By trying to replicate something else, the result often appears like a worse alternative. I enjoy plenty of vegetarian and vegan foods, but don’t try and tell me that a plant based burger tastes the same as a normal burger, that just ruins the experience. Play to your own strengths and don’t pretend to be something you are not, by doing that you reduce the stigma of vegan and vegetarian labels becoming associated with lower quality. The concept of being vegetarian one day a week sounds like a brilliant idea, not sure that I would go the entire way to vegan across a full day, but a few vegan meals in a week wouldn’t be so hard.
