I remember that abomination.  I ate it before I turned vegetarian in
1986.  (I wonder if there is a connection.)  But I think taste is a
matter of expectation and category.

When I eat a soy steak with A1 sauce, I might be tempted to think,
"Worst steak I ever tasted!"  Until I remember that I am eating
soybeans, and then I think, "Best salad I ever tasted!"
