I spent a little while trying to figure out a way to phrase it, but gently caress it let's just let the inevitable happen Cream pies are good

I would pay a lot of money to just have an entire cake made of the Dairy Queen crunchy ice cream cake layer.

My milquetoast opinion: My being vegan shouldn't invalidate my opinion that meat is gross. I wasn't like born a vegan. I'm the only one in my entire family, going back thousands of generations. I decided meat was gross and thus became a vegan.

Who in the world cares enough about your opinion on meat to devote a single second of mind space to it, much less comment on it? Has that ever actually happened or is it an internet only thing?

Yeah I've even had like grown rear end professional men try to stand over me and drill me about my protein intake in the middle of the office cafeteria when I was but a tiny intern. I just eat a lot of legumes dude you don't need to be this aggressive. This doesn't affect my job performance

Most meat is good but most offal is awful Mmm mmm can't wait to chew a bitter, spongy, honeycomb-pattern flesh mat for three minutes. Oh or the poo poo tubes that smell like actual poo poo, gotta suck on those a while to really appreciate that slime/poo poo texture

My trainer got me a giant bag of chocolate vegan protein powder for free bc he did some promotions for them. Literally the only way I can make it bearable is to bake it into muffins. The unflavoured stuff is honestly preferable, I'll sneak it into like stir fry sauces and poo poo

Manager Hoyden posted:It melts just like real cheese! I'm really glad that vegan cuisine is moving away from having to look and taste like meat and dairy products. Food can taste good even if there isn't a meat-based thing it's trying to mimic. You can spend a lot of money on "meat" that "bleeds" or "cheese" that "melts" but most of my vegan purchases just go to microwaveable patties, ketchup and nutritional yeast sprinkled over. The idea that my impossible burger burps out fake hemoglobin is not appealing; less appealing is the goo is made from beets which are so fuckin gross. Hth if I had to choose, I'd rather slurp cow's blood than beet juice.

I am of the opposite opinion: Beyond Meat tastes amazing and fixes all the problems I had with real meat (inconsistent texture, weird squidgy bits, raw can kill you so better overcook it)

hawowanlawow posted:impossible burgers are good Agree, but no one else in my family will touch them. Which is puzzling because I otherwise eat the most actual red meat of any of us. Beyond patties are also fine, but Impossible is a little better. Edit: I used to think why eat fake meat when there are tons of other vegetarian options, but as I get older I've come around to hey sometimes I want a burger but I've had enough meat lately. Also, Costco often has mad deals on patties, so it can be cost effective too. Tokelau All Star has a new favorite as of 03:08 on Jul 11, 2023 |

They're decent but the cost and lack of actual improvement over beef makes them very unappealing. The fake fried chicken patties are probably the closest to actual meat, but regardless I'd rather have some well done Tempeh, Tofu, or Seitan before any meat substitute. There are cultures that spent centuries making pressed bean curd palatable, we don't need to reinvent the wheel by injecting protein with fat globulals to make meatlikes.

Impossible digests poorly for me, beyond doesnt Neither is better than a black bean or falafel but I’ll eat the option that’s there when my friends take me out

Beyond patties are also fine, but Impossible is a little better. At best, they're kind of like meat but not good meat. Not meat I'd every bother eating, except to be polite (or avoid it going to waste).

I eat all sorts of meat, which I mention to provide context to this relatively unpopular opinion: Beyond sausage is really good. As in, I eat it regularly even though I also eat regular sausage. If you've been avoiding meat alternatives like that because you're not a vegetarian or you think there's no point if it doesn't taste identical to meat, just try it.

I went to a burger place once with a mixed crowd of vegetarians and meat eaters, it was my first time there so I wasn't familiar with their burgers and didn't have any expectations. I ordered a regular beef burger but when our order was brought out I was accidentally given someone else's impossible burger. I didn't realize until I was halfway through the burger that I wasn't eating beef and that was only because one of the vegetarians got her order a little late and realized right away that her order was wrong. It wasn't what I'd call an amazingly high quality hamburger but I didn't doubt for a second that I was eating actual meat.

I respect vegitarians/vegans and wish I didn't have a baby palette and could do the same. I've tried but I end up just eating beans and pasta constantly and in bigger amounts than usual.
