European lawmakers face a decision on whether ordinary consumers would be confused by the idea of vegetarian sausages or vegan burgers. Meat producers say it’s not that simple.

I don’t get why they have to look the same as meat products, as a lot of additives are necessary to achieve that.
Why should vegans not be able to make and eat the same recipes/foods as everyone else? There are countless reasons to replace individual ingredients vs inventing a whole new set of foods. People are increasingly into these products for some reason (myself included). Healthiness is another issue, but that’s always going to be a concern for all lifestyles.
Because there’s a market for it, simple as that.
There’s also plenty of vegan products that don’t directly emulate meat-based foods. Also some foods were always flexible in their ingredients, and expecting meat is just personal and cultural bias.
