While I personally don't do well on a full vegan diet, the vegan food I like is it's own thing, not some terrible imitation of meat.
Indian vegan dishes are amazing for example.
Exactly. You can either use high quality natural ingredients or you can try to mimic them. With the exception of some dishes where say imitation ground beef works well, you're always better off highlighting plants and fungus in their natural form rather than trying to make them taste and look like something else.
