Get away with what? 'Flavoured' products are not required to contain any of the ingredients which they are meant to taste like. Even the endless screeds of EU regulations don't demand it. There's no banana in most banana milk shakes, no hedgehog in hedgehog crisps, and probably no butter in your butter biscuits. Caveat emptor, amice, caveat emptor!

Yeah, and no chefs in Chef Salad!

That's because it's Chef's Salad.
Lack of punctuation can kill. There's a big difference between "Let's eat, Grandma" and "Let's eat Grandma". 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

If it's any consolation, my first attempt at curing my own bacon seems to be going well: it had its last dose of curing rub yesterday, and will get rinsed off tomorrow. Then with some luck I can eat it on Friday!

When it is done, do try your best to describe the "flavor", in all its detail. Perhaps a video showing your eyeballs rolling back into your head, as most sharks do, as they bite into their prey.

It's been (at least) 44 years since I engulfed the real thing. This[^] seems to really fill-the-bill.
Anyone who eats both and can qualify the above?

The logic behind faux meat escapes me entirely. If you're a conscience vegetarian why would you want to trick yourself or anyone else into believing that you're eating meat? If you're a health vegetarian why would you consume a product processed within an inch of its your life?

Oddly, I thought about this in the last day or so. You're actually asking the wrong question.
Consider what's "faux'ed": processed compositions which include, as a major ingredient, meat. They do not, in fact, look like meat at all. Consider that for a bit.
So - your question goes away, entirely, and the real issue, then, is can a certain meal be produced with a different set of ingredients and (1) still taste good; (2) Supply a desirable texture and consistency to the user?
Another Consider:
If pepperoni weren't full of all the spices, etc., what would it taste like? For that matter, the (absurdly) revered bacon? Imagine (at least for most people) how they'd like the taste of their meat of it weren't charred to some degree - changing its flavor away from that of meat.
A good argument, then, is that the desired flavors are the result of external additives and/or thermal decomposition products. So, given the appropriate texture, spices, and a set of thermal decomposition products (when appropriate) that are tasty - they're all the same.
One more thing: I've an ethical vegetarian. It has nothing to do with health - just ethics and morality. No leather clothing, for example, but I do enjoy Single Malt scotch, potato chips, &etc.

Unless my search skills are declining rapidly, there is no ad block AFAIK for Edge. It is a really good browser IMO. So, to Microsoft.
I have bought a new laptop recently and I like W10 too thus far.

Well the browser itself is very good. Blocking advertisements is something that browser provider do not and should not be doing. However, there are people outside of browser provider who create these and users can opt to use them.
I am not really sure how that is contradictory. There is a very good browser and no one has, yet, created an extension to block unwanted advertisements.

Some websites, like YouTube, have become unusable without an ad-blocker. It's absurd that you should watch one minute ads for ten second cat videos...

There is no such thin add-in/extension of any kind for Edge so far...It is still beta...
