# I'm not vegi at all, but...
...it has always struck me as odd to create mock versions of meat dishes.

# Quite.
 
I've tried textured vegetable protein sausage, and it's equally as revolting as regular sausage.

# Yeah, this Indian place I go to for lunch sometimes has a soy nugget curry, which is mighty tasty.
 
but it's not trying to be meat.

# I'm a vegetarian
But I see no point in veggie haggis. I tried haggis once, in the pre-veggie days, and it was ok - but I doubt it could be somehow improved by making it out of vegetables.

Sainsbury's own brand meatfree burgers are the best, they barbeque up real nice and don't drip fat all over.

# i think it odd, too.
but a lot of omnivores create mock versions of restaurant food (particularly fast food - there are books about it) and versions of cuisine exotic to them, so it can be seen as just part of that pattern.

i know someone who made mock ketchup (not a tomato sauce or chilli sauce, but an attempt at heinz ketchup) a few times.
