vegan food looks like that?

why did you lie to me /ck/

what do you mean? we've always said vegan food looks like shit

[Anonymous No.18996565]

Why do they always have to imitate the thing they don't want? Vegan recipes are always just a plate full of cope.

the majority of vegans used to eat meat so it makes sense they would want to imitate things they used to eat. Its also a useful skill for when you cook for guests who may not want typical (bland) vegan food

Do vegans really believe that shaping a piece of tofu to look like meat will make it taste like meat? Is this inability to grasp reality, or the denial of reality, at the heart of the mental illness that is veganism?

It's an ok vegan food show but his ghoulish wife freaks me the fuck out. She looks unwell.

because the most common thing to say when someone ask why u arent vegan is ''i would miss the meat xD i need le bacon xD''
now u can eat your bacon and burger and pizza etc but still be vegan. it is just a win-win concept.

what would u rather eat, a burger or a sallad? this is not 1990 anymore, u can eat tasty things as a vegan :)

best meat substitute you can make is a dish that doesn't need meat to begin with
short of that, make something where getting the texture exactly right isn't terribly important and the flavor of the meat would ordinarily go mostly unnoticed anyway
i use tvp for taco meat, i can find it for $0.20/oz dry, roughly $0.04/oz prepared, dirt cheap
1:1 tvp/water, normal taco seasoning, a bit of oil improves the texture, and i can just throw all that shit in the microwave, zero effort
for something like orange chicken where the point of the meat is just to be a chewy crispy fried something to put sauce on, i just fry up some basic seitan, gluten flour is considerably cheaper than chicken too
but not shit like that guy makes, way too much time and effort and obscure ingredients for something i can only assume would just be a subpar imitation

It doesn't have any of the nutrition that meat has, which is the entire purpose of the food. It's like those gummie candies at 7-Eleven made to look like pizza or tacos or sushi.

bro, seitan is literally made of wheat protein-gluten, veggie stock and spices.

Had this at a vegan indian-turkish doner kebab place in Vienna. Sandwich was very filling, full of protein, veggie crunch and spicy heat.

You are both retards. Pland and grain "protein" isn't even protein. it's pretty low on the quality scale and doesn't do as much for us. Combining it with another plant protein improves that but animal products are still the best. Soy actually seems to be the best plant protein though which isn't too far off from animal products, but it's probably going to be lower in other things like usable iron which might make it less beneficial.

i was looking into this dude when i was interested in making seitan.
his vegan pepperoni recipe is fascinating food manipulation.

>wheat protein-gluten
Literal poison, modern grains are being rejected more and more frequently by people. It's not a replacement for meat.

I literally have no choice but to eat mea rice and veg as it's the only inexpensive option I have toget my micros and macros.

Bread is poison.

you can eat soy-based seitan/alternatives instead

"No" Soy-based anything tastes like shit. Only soy product I've ever liked was a strawberry yoghurt and even then it still tasted like Soy.

Yeah, this is a really stupid argument. I’d rather eat a burger cause it tastes better, I know I’ll be fuller. Eating meat shaped dough isn’t the same as just eating meat by any stretch.
