There are “juice” drinks that contain 0% fruit juice so I feel like this isn’t an impossibility. I often joke that shit like cheese wiz could not possibly have come from nature. Can anyone think of an example?

    I’m fairly certain its not generally vegan yet, but most “crab” in (cheap) sushi is most definitely not crab. I think it still has some fish in it, but it’s teetering out there on the edge.

    There are quiet a few “buttery” things, like Ritz crackers, Pillsbury crescent rolls / flaky layers, and most movie theater “butter” popcorn that are vegan.

      Imitation crab is still fish, (usually pollock) it’s just pureed and thickened with corn starch I think. Pollock and other white fish is just a lot cheaper to farm than crab, and the process approximates the texture pretty well.
