Meat Substiutes
 

Am I the only one who can't stomach fake meat?
I've tried all differrent kinds and still haven't found anything that I would consider buying again.

I just don't like the idea of it. I'm a vegetarian, not a wannabe meat eater. For protein, i have been making my own seitan. It's really economical and easy to make a big batch at one time.

I've found that the only way to eat fake meat products is to steer clear of those trying to be meat - blech. I love black bean burgers, I even like Quorn, but my favorites are just mixing minced veggies into bulgur and making patties. Pretty much if a package says "textured vegetable protein" it is a strong code for "do not want".

Have you ever tried Trader Joe's soy chorizo. If you like spicy you will like this one.

Thanks for the info Helen.
