I think it is fair to call a food item fake if it is a vegan option that has the animal/animal product name on it. For example, it is fair to call vegan chicken wings "fake" chicken wings, because there is no chicken in it. However, for a generic item like a sausage, it just has to be some kind of processed protein in roughly cylindrical shape. Vegan sausage is not a fake sausage. You can call vegan cheese fake cheese, because there is no cheese, but you cannot call vegan pizza fake pizza, like dude you can eat it, it is a real pizza.

sure, but if the person knows you're vegan, i feel it is already implied with context. i get this notion though if the person may not know you're vegan

I don't know why but this has me cracking up 😆. I think it's just the philosophy of it all but it got it me. Got me thinking about the reality or unreality of pizza. i-cant .
