do you know the veggie meat?

It is easy to find meat substitutes in my area. I really like the meatless ribs made by Morning Star, except for the high price. I always stock up on them when they are on sale. My brother is a big meat eater and hates the idea of most things that are fake meat. The one thing he loves, though is when I make him mini corn dogs with veggie dogs. It is one thing that even he thinks tastes actually better than the real meat version and it is nice that I can make it and we can both eat it since I do not eat meat. Overall though I do not eat much of meat substitutes because one of the reasons I do not eat meat is that I do not even like it.

i don't know where you live so I'm not certain whether or not you can get them in your supermarkets but try the frozen foods section. I usually buy either Gardenburgers (brand name and made from vegetables) or store bran burgers that are made out of soy protein. You can also buy soy meat crumbles to use in pasta sauce etc. DH and I love them and use it as a meat substitute twice a week.

How is the veggie meat different from tofu? Isn't it that one? I'm confused.

I've heard of them but never tried one. I know it's different then soya burgers (thos to me are gross). I know I've put veggies in my meat patties before. Purary the veggies, drain the liquid and added to the meat patties when cooked them. It added some great flavor to them and I've done that a few times but I've never bought them. I saw them once and that was in the health food aisle at the store. Anything that is labled 'healty food' comes at a heavy price here. It is very expensive.

hi resssaaa, yes, i am aware of veggie meat and even tried it. it's yummy and really healthy but really expensive. of course, it's satisfying. here in our country, some hospitals and restaurants serve veggie meat to their patients and customers. you are right the taste is like chicken, pork and beef.

i don't like vegetables. i am a carnivore. lol. i have tasted veggie meat once and it does not taste anything like meat. why do they call them veggie meat?

hi resssaaa I see you are in the Philipines and I am here in the US but I do know what you are talking about. we call them veggieburgers here and several different companies make them. we can also get them in packages of ground up crumbles that even look like hamburger. I actually like them and as they are made of soybeans they are very good for you. You can make them into patties that look like hamburgers and with a bit of seasoning they taste really very good.I dont know where you can find these in the Philipines but I think you or your mom could goggle for them and find a place in your home country.Just go to goggle and ask for veggie burgers and they should be able to find them in your country,ask for places in the Philipines that sell these.

Hi resssaaa. I live in India and you can find Veggie meat everywhere here. In our country around 30% of the population. (35 Crores people) are vegetarians ( which is more than the population of USA) and hence vegetarian food are available in abundance. I am a vegeatarian and I never eat Non-vegetarian foods wxcept for Boiled Eggs and that is the diet structure for most of us here. Thanks for starting this discussion and have a great day. Happy Mylotting. Cheers:-)

I remember my sister bought one from supermarkets. I had tried it and it is very good. I think it is good to eat this because it is more healthy compared to real meat.

Actually I really don't know,so come here waiting for the answers so that I can learn one more new word "veggie".
