TL;DR: the meat industry's misleading messaging campaign + lobbying

Falafel doesn't taste like a cheeseburger. Beyond burgers taste like tasty cheeseburgers.

Yeah, falafel sandwiches taste better

Falafel can either be the most delicious thing you've eaten in a year, or a bland, dry mound of sadness, and there's no in between.

I do find that a good sauce can mitigate overly dry falafel, but some are just better than others.

As a meat eater I agree. Part of the backlash probably is the promise of the replacement patties tasting like meat - for me they absolutely do not. Falafel on the other hand is great.
