Some of my household is vegan, and it's amazing how much things have changed in the last 5-10 years. It's no longer a downgrade for the rest of us when we cook/bake vegan stuff. Although I still think that the best vegan meals are from cuisines that inherently embrace veganism/vegetarianism.
Definitely, instead of a pretend burger or chicken. I get why some people do it, and we do it a home quite a bit with pretend mince etc. I always feel a bit of a cheat though and am trying and steer my wife away from that.
Embrace the veg!
Not vegan myself, but I think the move away from mock-meat and mock-dairy opens up more interesting food opportunities. Vegan food is way better when it's not trying to cater to non-vegan palates.
