That's simply mean spirited. Proper vegan food has always been delicious, it's just that most places only serve half-assed burgers with some terrible meat substitute.
I always enjoyed the taste of impossible burgers. But i kinda get your meaning. The problem being that there was only one place i know of i could get good vegan food. There was this restaurant in California near base. It was only vegan options and by my recollection, was very popular, you would just go there because it was good, not because we were looking for vegan food specifically.
Such a place dose not exist around me as far as i know, which is a shame because there is no normalization going on.
There’s a brewery called pig minds in like Rockford il, I used to go there when I was in a summer immersion course at Beloit college.
Their entire menu is vegan, and people often have no idea until they have been there several times, because their food is just amazing. They have “chikn” options (I assume breaded tofu or smth) and vegan cheeses, such that nobody really realizes it.
Unfortunately the area I’m in now doesn’t have anything like that. Used to, but it shut down.
