I'm Vietnamese and I don't think making vegan pork belly is modifying our culture to be more palatable to white people. It's pretty weird for you to say that so authoritatively. The Vietnamese diaspora in the west has developed their own culture that in many ways diverts from traditions but instead takes inspiration from their second home. Many aspects of that diaspora culture then make their way back into Vietnam and become popular with people who never the country. The traditional way still exists, but when young people grow up abroad and try to bring their experience into their experiments, don't just tell them, "You're just trying to be white!" to invalidate them.

Also, I'll let you in on a little something: making food to mimic another food is 100% authentic Viet culture. Super trad even. "Giả cầy" is a traditional northern dish that uses pork to mimic the taste of dog meat. The name translates to "fake dog meat" and making it taste good is an artistry all on its own. Why has this dish existed for so long if pork is "delicious and creative in its own right" and mainstream Vietnamese culture supports the eating of dogs? Could it be that there are people with ethical objections who still want to enjoy the taste of those dishes? Kind of like... vegans who eat fake meat?
