I had a vegan show up at a dinner one time that got pissed because there was no vegan food, like wherever he goes the host is supposed to cook an entirely different meal just for them.
If it's a good friend I'd try to accommodate them, but I think if you have special dietary restrictions beyond allergies -- which are really easy to accommodate -- that you should ask if it's okay to bring a salad or something in that vegans eat, rather than try to force the host to comply.
Like if you have a seafood allergy, I can work around that. If you're a vegan, well... That's harder to accommodate. I could accommodate a vegetarian better than a vegan.
I like portabella caps and beans compressed into a patty with seasonings and stuff, these are different culinary experiences.
If someone actually says they want meat but are vegetarians or vegans then you know it's just a fad for them.

That's because they're so friggin' militant about their diet. Heaven forbid that you (gulp) eat something that might give you a little enjoyment.

I have heard that patties like that are very good. I've never tried it. It sounds good. I like mushrooms.
Yea that sounds delicious. but these fake meat patties are nothing that good. They're loaded with toxins, and heart damaging rancid seed oils.
