I don't like fake meats, usually, but I seem to have a different definition than other people. To me, seitan and tofu are not fake meats. They are foods in and of themselves. Tofurkey is fake meat. Smart Dogs are not, because they're imitating the form of a hot dog, not the form of a cow. Vegetarian salmon is fake meat (and rather scary-looking.)
So, pretty much, the fake meats I don't like are the ones that are trying to look like something that's obviously meat. When you're imitating something processed like hot dogs or nuggets, it doesn't bother me. (Now that I think about it, I suppose that this reasoning might be because I'd eaten tofu plenty of times before I became a vegetarian, sometimes in dishes that also included meat, so I don't really see it as a substitute for people that won't eat meat, but as something in it's own right.)

I like fake meats, and did even when I was a practicing vegetarian.

If I only had a brain...
But the seitan I like best is marketed as "mock duck", and textured accordingly.

Strawberry disappointment.
But what's the duck ever done to you. And how to you mock a duck anyway? "You've got a crap walk"? "Tony Curtis' hair looked shit."?

I like the Morningstar crumbles & fake bacon. I also like Gardenburgers & Morningstar burgers of all shapes. And those buffalo chicken wings. Now I'm hungry.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I tend to prefer veggieburgers that don't try too hard to be meat, because I'm not a vegetarian and in general if I want meat I'd rather have the real thing. I've had some amazing fake seafood, though.

I like all of those except the fake bacon, but I never really liked real bacon to begin with. (Never had it at home, only at restaurants, and since we didn't really go out to breakfast too often, I almost never ate it.) And now I'm hungry, too. I think I'll have dinner. Which will probably be a saag paneer frozen dinner.
