Speaking as a vegan, I really don't want food that imitates the taste of meat and I will refuse to eat anything that's been prepared on the same griddle or using the same utensils as meat.
Pretty much how fast food outlets in India work - the kitchens are divided into vegetarian and non-vegetarian sections, with separate utensils, fryers - everything. You can walk into a KFC in India and get vegetarian options that were cooked in an entirely vegetarian section.
