Early European explorers coming to the Americas said there were so many fish in the Atlantic you could walk across it.

But without getting too E/N about it, it was largely miserable even aside from that.

I think I’ve told this before but a friend of mine legit thought that there was a guy in the back “deboning” the wings to make boneless wings.

Many moons ago, like maybe 2007 or 2008, I had an intern who swore the exact same thing and that he'd held that position at Domino's. He went on a huge rant about it one afternoon, and everyone in the office was looking at each other like, "What the gently caress is he on? Do we need a breathalyzer?"

If boneless wings were actually meat that was de-boned then they would be a lot more expensive. Vegan wings are now coming with sugarcane "bone" sticks inserted to give the illusion of eating an actual drum wing. People are weird when it comes to eating meat & meat substitutes.

I don't understand why you'd eat a mediocre version of a meat dish as a vegetarian/vegan instead of one of the many delicious vegetarian dishes out there that aren't trying to pretend to be meat

This means making Indian, Thai, or any other vegan Asian dishes is kind of off the table.

I am not vegetarian, but I don't think it would be that difficult to do so. I just don't see the rationale in replacing meat with fake meat, tofurkey is terrible, impossible sausage was terrible, Saag Paneer is good, a bean burrito is fine. Make dishes that are inherently vegetarian and it will taste good, trying to replicate something that is 90% meat seems like a wasted effort.

Interestingly, Cheetos and Doritos are not vegetarian. They use rennet in the cheese. Rennet is made from stomach enzymes.

I have had some meat substitutes that were perfectly fine. Theres a vegan place near me that makes a “cheesesteak” with seitan and that’s not really something I think you can mimic with mushrooms or whatever. I agree that a good vegetarian meal will make you not miss meat at all, but if meat substitutes get someone to cut back on their consumption I’m not going to knock somebody for it.

My weakness is hot dogs, and veggie hot dogs are like the worst meat substitute around, but I’m still loving eating them.

I'm very lucky to have not lost anyone to COVID in the last three years (that I know of), but I did lose an amazing vegetarian Indian buffet that I had only just discovered in January 2020. If I could eat at that place every day I'd be vegetarian for sure. Also happy three-year anniversary to the first US COVID lockdown lmfao

I would try impossible burgers if you want experiment with meatless burgers, they taste closer to actual beef. Or don't bother. I still eat meat, I try and eat less meat and have more salads and try and find vegetarian meals that aren't just an imitation of meat, and then eat meat as a treat.

Braksgirl posted:Beyond Burgers smell so bad while cooking that I can't eat them. The smell of them cooking makes me nauseated. One thing I noticed is that some people try to fry them without adding oil. Ground beef with a reasonably high fat content, say 90% or 85% or similar, fries nicely in a dry pan, but the substitute ones, Beyond and Impossible, both say to use oil and you have to use oil. Otherwise the surface burns and it is not lovely charring meat smell, it's just burning vegetable matter.

Beyond burgers smell like dog food raw. Once cooked they're fine, though.

Mod Pizza has vegan toppings, including cheese. Made celebrating Pi day convenient. One IMAX theater live streamed the 25th anniversary 8K remaster of Darren Aranofsky's Pi but the projectionist kept the setting for 3D (which this remaster was definitely not in) so we all had to sit thru 5 minutes of blurry movie before they restarted it in the correct stttings.
