I wonder if they intend to bring back the veggie dogs? they seemed to be pretty well loved.

Hell yes!
We were going to have to slum it with the other two meatless meat brands Yves Potvin founded.
I used to live on these products. I developed a pretty bad food allergy to them. Very highly processed.
It turned out that, in January, ownership of the Yves trademark had been transferred from its former owner, Hain Celestial Canada, to Maple Leaf Foods, a major Canadian meat producer.
Now, we can officially confirm the news: Yves Veggie Cuisine has been resurrected.
That's an interesting way of saying "in the hands of a meat company". Honestly, sometimes I'm not sure with eating at fast food places, but then I consider that even at regular sit-down restaurants, I'm usually still paying companies that serve meat. With this, though? It's expressly funding a company whose near-only job is to kill animals. I don't think I'd consider buying it vegan anymore – just plant-based. I'm not imposing that as a moderator; just stating my personal opinion as a user.
Booo, their products were terrible. Well, personally, I didn't like them much. But I have always been put off by imitation vegan foods. Like what the fuck are vegetarian sausages. Are you a closet vegan that needs to hide that they eat don't eat meat? It would be way more beneficial if they made vegetarian food that stood out as its own thing. More people would probably buy it and not just vegans. Like instead of extruded mash into sausages, mix in some spinach and and carrot and onion and stuff it in a puff pastry or some thing along those lines.
The point is to stop the demand for animal products and plant-based meats and such very much help towards that goal. Many people do like things like this, including many who end up going vegan, in part, because of them. Arguing against them is counter productive
There are also vegan pre-made meals you can buy which don't use plant-based meats (mostly in the form of frozen or canned meals). Those are also helpful. We can and should encourage both
A lot of people have grown up in a culture that uses a lot of meat. They're part of meals they've grown up with, such as hot dogs. Those items make the transition easier for them.
Dude, I eat meat, but I was a vegetarian for years. I'm here to tell you that the Beyond Sausage is the best sausage I've ever had. Like, there is no comparison.
