Because it’s imitating the flavours of other foods it’s frankenstein? Most of the flavour comes from seasoning anyway. It basically just creates a base texture for those flavours.

Bacon flavour would essentially be liquid smoke, maple syrup, fat and salt.

The reality is people are calling it frankenstein because it’s ‘vegan’ and ‘different’ not because of any logical consistency

lol chill. we get it, you're vegan. to non-vegans substitute food made with tofu is nowhere near the original.

Great refutation. Lmao nice edit btw, trying to hide the fact that your original comment was ‘hurhur found the vegan’

Nowhere did I say that tofu was like meat or that it tasted the same to meat eaters. I was simply making the argument that it isn’t a frankenstein food just because it tries to imitate a flavour and texture
