That's funny shit. Being a vegetation I can relate to what she is saying.

I was a vegetarian for about 6 months last year. Just wanted to see what it'd be like. Wasn't hard. Only went to a vegan restaurant once, underwhelming place, weird patrons. What's the story with saitan? That's some nasty shit. If you don't want to eat meat, why invent something that tastes like meat?!

Precisely the point I've made many times.  What is the point of a vegan burger that tries it's best to look like a big mac and soy lumps that purport to be chicken nuggets ? 

Seitan is called fu here and is often used in the vegetarian cuisine eaten by buddhist monks. Incidentally the food they eat , especially in Kyoto, more often than not comes from quite high end restaurants who work as permanent licenced caterers to the temples. The idea that the monks eat some humble fare knocked up in the temple kitchen is wrong. They get some seriously gourmet nosh. Personally I'm a carnivore but don't eat very much meat these days.
