I mean, what types of vegetarian foods give you the satisfaction a person gets that enjoys a steak or whatever their favorite food is?

Portabella mushrooms. I like mine with teriyaki sauce that I mix myself.

I don't get satisfaction from steak because I don't eat it. I became a vegetarian because I don't like the fact that steak is only "juicy" because of the blood (and other reasons.)

I think that there isn't really an equivalent. Steak has a special place in Western culture, and there just isn't one typical vegetarian food that could have those same connotations.
I can say that even before I was a veggie, I loved homemade macaroni and cheese, or vegetarian curries. Mmm.

I've been a vegetarian since I was 8. The thought of a juicy steak is literally making me cringe! I don't want anything that is even sort of similar to steak! There are fake steak strips made by Morningstar that taste a lot like steak and that's why I hate them.

A big juicy hunk of tasty, yummy tofu. I'm not a vegetarian, but I love that stuff. I actually don't eat pork and beef but I don't call myself a vegetarian. Still, tofu is good and good for you. Vegetarian or not, everyone should eat it!

There IS no equivalent. As for "Fred M" remarking about murdered animals, does that mean cut up with a knife, etc. Well veggies are cut up with a knife, so does that mean you eat murdered veggies?
All kidding aside however, there is no equivalent. Meat has a totally different taste and texture than veggies. Just don't let anyone put you down because you're a vegetarian.

For me, I like to take some seitan I've made, slice it up, dip it in soy milk, dredge in a flour/nutritional yeast/seasoning mix and fry it up in oil. Yummy! If I'm not lazy, I'll make some veggie gravy and pour it on top. Sometimes I'll marinate the seitan instead and fry it up or grill it.

Definitely grilled portobello mushrooms. I don't know if they taste better than steak like the other answerer said but they are very good. having them WITH a steak is a great combo.
