Would not satisfy me. I don't care for any phony foods.

Asia has a good range of soy based "fake meat." If you have a good Asian market nearby, might be a good place to start.

You can try making a seaweed salad with sesame dressing, or whip up some sushi rolls with veggie fillings like avocado and cucumber. And if you're into cooking, there are tons of recipes for vegan "seafood" dishes using things like seaweed, mushrooms, or even hearts of palm.

Why the quotation marks? That is exactly what it is -- fake.

I've had this at a neighbors house and they were pretty darn good.
