I can sort of see why a full time vegetarian might want to have the taste of meat but tbh they aren't going to get it from most of the products offered as tasting like the real thing.
With taste being completely subjective and relative to each individual person, if a veggie doesn't eat meat then the Beyond type products could very well taste just as good for them as they're not eating meat side by side to compare.
It's why I never truly trust my wife (who's vegan) to be the sole judge on if something is convincing or not
She hasn't eaten meat in I don't know how long so her ability to compare and judge I expect is not the most accurate
When we got some of the new Beyond nuggets last weekend, I had to try them for myself as she said they were really convincing chicken nuggets and in that instance, they were indeed really convincing.

Yeah I'd reserve judgement until tasting them. I was unsure too, but they're very convincing.
My wife works at a local coffee shop that, for a while, was trialing this "Beyond Meat" crap.
They were discontinued after I believe six (six!) days due to poor sales.
She tried one of these Beyond Meat sandwiches they were trialing. She took literally one bite and spat it out.
But hey, if you like 'em, then go hard.
Yeah, in the countries Beyond has now expanded to (which in of itself shows demand and success) it's doing extremely well so while it may not be to everyone's taste, they're certainly doing something right.
Have you tried one of their burgers or sausages BBQ'd? Or the mince in tacos for example. You might be surprised.
