Fake Bacon
I can't see the point of the fake bacon and chicken etc if you like the taste so much, then eat the real stuff - it probably has less E numbers and polywhassernames!

Ahh, but...
It's not for the taste, but the lack o' meat. I'd as happily eat non-meat flavoured stuff, but it's much rarer.

To be honest...
There's a lot of difference I find. Firstly, none of the veins or fatty bits of string or gristle are present which always put me off meat when I was a wee 'un. Also, the taste and textures are completely different. I find they actually can taste a lot nicer. Lastly, it does seem completely odd to make fake meat but in retrospect it makes it easier to make certain dishes.
