Nope, as it stands now, unless you are trying to conflate content bias
with nutritional quality? I haven't since going vegan and have no
plans in the future ... to eat foods that I don't enjoy.

Yet, by your own admission you pass a kebab shop a crave eating a kebab.

Any deterioration in health through a vegan diet is slow, you won't
notice the effects over an extended period of time. For B12 it can take
years.

What I have done (at minor initial inconvenience) is stop eating
things I shouldn't have been eating in the first place so I've not
*stopped* eating anything (I should).

We evolved to cook and eat meat, and to digest milk. We should be eating
food we have evolved to eat.

- no great variety in food and no
substitute meat products for vegans.

What is all this 'substitute for meat' stuff? You talk of it like it's
some elixir or multivitamin and it's neither.

It is something you have mentioned numerous times. You had tofurkey for
christmas

It's consumption is one
of the current biggest causes of heard disease, bowel / colon cancer
and diabetes and why ALL the medial health practitioners recommend you
cut down on meat and increase the consumption of fruit, veg, nuts etc.

Yes, we should cut down on meat and processed foods, but for a healthy
diet we should still consume the foods we have evolved to consume.

I'm not aware of anyone being advise to cut down on their intake of
fruit and veg (other than people going OTT with fruit smoothies etc).

There are numerous articles on eating sugar laden fruit and of course
smoothies.
