Ok—so you are confused because you think there might be “want-to” vegetarians who like mock meat. Do you know anyone like that?
Hm. Probably not personally. Are you saying such people do not exist?
I am unhappy about the need/want distinction, because it smacks of Freud. There are generally more than two things going on.
Of course there are more things going on. It’s only a model, to quote Monty Python, and as I said it’s a rough approximation.
However I think it’s a useful rough model. Anders_H who commented in this thread is a good example of a need-to vegetarian—he actually craves meat but doesn’t eat it for animal-suffering and environmental-consequences reasons.
