This is a genuine question, it's something that always perplexed me, the idea of eating fake versions of things that you don't want to eat the real version of.

Basically the reason I eat products such as Quorn is because they are easy to use. Rather than spending an hour after work cooking a meal, I can just throw a couple of pies/pasties/schnitzels/whatever in the oven while taking the dog for a walk. Vegetarians can be lazy just like meat eaters.
Plus, just because I don't want to eat animals doesn't mean I don't want to eat a burger, a pie, a sausage roll, hot dog, etc. Quorn sausages are still good for BBQs, they just don't contain dead cow or dead pig.
Not so sure why you actually need a tofurkey though...never had one.
