May as well buy burgers in the US, since you already paid for most of it through taxes!

I realy don't get why people eat those meat subsidies. They are realy not that good and unhealthy too. Cooking a meal just with vegetables and other stuff can taste realy good, is healthy and cheap at the same time.
Probably because Americans were raised on a super meat heavy diet. Meat burgers. Meat casseroles. Meat sauces. Meat everything. Fake meats make those recipes achievable for vegetarians and vegans who long for mom's home cooking.
Italian here, sardegna. Sausage, porchetto, chicken, lamb (lots of it), small baby birds, brains, all kinds of fish especially sword fish, octopus and Squid, lots of cured meats... the list goes on. Every meal has a meat and we live the longest in italy.
You want the real reason in a thread jerking off vegetarianism? Here goes:
Yes meat does that. I am talking about fake meat.
Impossible and beyond taste delicious in respective appropriate dishes. Dunno wtf you're on about. Also a lot less prep and clean up to toss a frozen patty on the grill than cook a bunch of veggies. The downside is that it isn't particularly healthy-- at least on par with a red meat burger. But the idea that they all "taste bad" is just dumb and contrary to what clearly a ton of other people experience.
They're junk food and that's why I love them.
It's the same impulse that keeps me buying Takis.
