Have you never enjoyed a burger and a beer with your friends? Or is that you fail to see the social component of eating?

Doesn't seem relevant. There's a decent amount of veggie/vegan options these days without using fake meat.
Fake meat isn't really a product for vegetarians/vegans. It's is a product aimed at creating vegetarians/vegans, and that's going to be much harder.

I always feel like people are being intentionally obtuse when making these arguments. I'm vegan and know many vegans who enjoy beyond meat. We didn't go vegan because we didn't like the taste of things which were traditionally derived from animal flesh, and it's nice to be able to enjoy effectively the same foods without the animal exploitation.

This is just flat-out wrong.
