Pre-note: When I mention "imitation products", I mean a food item that is trying to exactly replicate a non vegan item. Something like a black bean burger is not an imitation production, it's just an alternative.
I was bored so I started creating a tier list of vegan products and how closely they imitate non vegan products. I was trying to keep the list genericized with less emphasis on specific brands, but for some items the brand was really important.
What would you move around? What would you add? I only have a few items so far. I'll update the list as comments come in.
S tier - practically indistinguishable
Beef burgers (impossible, beyond)
Breakfast sausages (impossible, beyond)
Chicken nuggets/patties
Mayo
A tier - you can tell it's different but it's just as good
Queso dip (cashew based)
Ground beef (impossible, beyond)
Egg (just egg)
Butter
Milk
Ice cream
B tier - you can tell it's different and it's a slight downgrade
Deli cheese slices (some brands are C or F)
C tier - you can tell it's different and it's okay but a significant downgrade
Cream cheese (most brands)
Pizza
F tier - you can tell it's different and it's not good
I am not a vegan but I like almond milk/ oat milk to be better than dairy milk. I find that dairy milk has a weird smell in the US that I am not accustomed to. Also it weirds me out that dairy milk from the grocery stores takes weeks to spoil.
