There are just some things that I don't understand. Actually, there are a lot of things I don't understand. However, something in particular has been bothering me lately.
I have come to find certain bits of veganism and vegetarianism that completely baffle me.
If a person chooses to be a vegetarian or even go vegan, why do they want their veggie burgers to taste like beef or other meat burgers? A veggie burger should be just that, a combination of vegetables cooked into a patty put between two slices of bread or bun. If you want a real 'burger' that tastes like a hamburger, go to a local meat counter.
Also, why would a person who is vegan eat any kind of cheese, even if it is not made with animal products? Cheese is made from milk. Anything else is not cheese.
I just don't understand if a person makes an entire diet change to not eat meat or any products that come from animals, why would they still want the satisfying taste of a burger or cheese?
I am not looking for an answer, nor do a mean to offend anyone. I just wanted to share my confusion.
