I think that's the thing with meat eaters. They're so used to chicken burgers, and beef burgers, and chicken schnitzel, and hot dogs made out of meat, that when it comes to say vegetarian nuggets (Frys) and if they actually like it, they're shocked that something could taste so good as vegan because all they've really eaten is meat.
Most of the time my family loves the vegan food me and my mum cook.

My aunty and uncles, and grandparents have no problem with it either. Whenever we vist they actually make food to suit our vegan needs.
Me and my girlfriend actually made vegan choc chip cupcakes and her house the other day, I think everyone liked them.
