Hi,In my opinion there is nothing like the real stuff.One can find organic grown meat that is very healthy compared to the processed types of meats .With processed meat,one hasn't a clue if we are eating pulverized bones,feathers,or what. Stick to the real meat and you will also make the American ranchers happy!!!!

there are a lot of vegetarian foods that look and taste something like chicken and other meats. you might think they're weird at first (i did, too), but consider the following:
a) a lot of them taste really good
b)they're cholesterol free, lower in saturated fat, have no growth hormones or antibiotics, won't risk giving you salmonella or a bunch of other pathogens (unlike meat which have all of the above), etc...
c) they are in fact made of real foods that you're probably consuming anyway (i.e. plant proteins, grains, etc)- so it's not "fake" _food_, just not the actual flesh of a formerly living being.
d)they certainly couldn't be any grosser than the decomposing corpse of a small tortured and murdered bird. you have a nice meal and nobody has to lose her life-seems like a pretty good deal to me. :)
i haven't tried this particular brand, but there are a lot of good products out there if you're open to giving them a chance.

The El Natural "chicken breasts" are actually really good. I've only been a veggie for a few weeks now, but they are one of my favorites. I like to put them on salads. I've only found a few other meat substitutes that I like, boca burgers are one of them. With all the fixings of a regular burger, you can hardly taste the difference.

I tried tofu once and wanted to puke(sorry) but I never tried this chicken. I'll have to write down the name and give it a try but I have a feeling I'm not going to like it, lol. Anyways, I always wanted to know this, does this "fake chicken" have the all the amino acids in it that meat has?

I'm SO inbetween on this subject of eating meat. I can relate to the one side (vegetarians) and the other(omnivores). They ate meat in the bible, but then again it is cruel how they treat the animals, especially the (non organic farmed) animals. But, animals would overpopulate the earth if none of us ate meat and they would die one way or the other. Plus animals eat other animals to survive, it's natural evolution. So, like I said, I'm inbetween on this one, but I definitely don't like tofu/soy, LOL.blah!

Actually Morningstar Farms has veggie burgers to DIE for!!! I've fed them to many a meateater who loves them! They also have 'chicken wings' that are great too.
There are many veggie 'meat' products that are extremely tasty. 'Tofu pups' are GREAT!!! They're JUST like hotdogs.
When you think about it, the only reason they taste like meat is because they have the same flavorings as meat coz alone, meat doesn't really taste of a whole lot.

Wow -- talk about going offtopic, guys! I'm going to end your poop conversation right here!
Some really good tasting *meat substitutions* (please, don't call them "fake meat" b/c they're very real foods!) are out there.
I didn't give up meat b/c I didn't like the taste, I gave it up for ethical reasons. Thus saying that you aren't a vegetarian b/c you like the taste of meat is pretty much an invalid argument to me. Others might disagree, but that's just how I feel. If you're really against eating imitation things, then I wonder if you ever use non-dairy creamer -- YIKES! Fake milk?? God forbid. See, I bet you use imitation things all the time. I agree with the poster who said they're not more gross than eating a corpse of a mistreated animal.
I love:
Boca Breakfast Links
Boca Chik'n Patties
Gardenburger Riblets
Tofu Pups (Yummy with Bush's Baked Beans! Vegetarian, of course)
Tofurkey Hickory Smoked sandwich slices
Tofutti Cheese
Anything made of gluten! Especially my fiance's beef stew! Mmmmm
There are so much more. But really, people, be a little more openminded. It's okay if you don't like the taste of tofu -- i'm not a fan myself -- but I think it's a little off key to keep saying it's too gross, so you eat meat. That's not a logical conclusion. If you really wanted to, then you'd find a way around eating meat without eating tofu. If you don't want to, then try not to be so offensive to those who do want abstain from animal products.
Truth is it isn't about tastes. B/c veggie food tastes good. It's about finding it within yourself to realize that the way animals are exploited and treated in today's society is morally wrong, and since we're intelligent enough as humans to realize that, we should feel responsible to do something about it. Not entitled to do it for that reason. :nono:

Getting back to Sammy's" subject. I have been eating meat substitutes for 10 yeaqrs and I agree they were pitiful at first. But! they have gotten a lot better. I can't speak on the chicken like stuff you mentioned. Have you tried "Morningstar products? They are getting real good. I usualy have the sausage Patties or meat strips with breakfat. Most of the egg substitues are really good with them (I use "Egg Beaters") Boca Burger makes for a decent Cheeseburger. Boca Burger or Morningstar Crumblers make for a great meat sause or taco filler.
Looks can be deceiving when seen on TV. It is difficult to make what was mainly soy meal look like a wing or drumstick!
I used to say "I would never give up beef if my life depended upon it...Weeell it did and I did!

Dang Veggiegirl you're making me hungry! My poop is green because of the herbs I take...hahahaha, I've been on a 30 diet (just finishing up), and it's like whatever I take, I feel the effects right away. Hahahhaaa, sorry about the poop thing again guys.
MMmmmmmmmmmm....Boca, mmmmmmmm. I went to a restaurant on Friday (it's tough eating out and being vegan at the same time), and this mongolian place had tofu! I was overjoyed (all veggies, and they cook it in front of you)...oh man, to those who won't try or don't like tofu...have it prepared right. I think I was in vegan heaven. :) :bouncing: mmmmm, ok now I made myself hungry, hahhaha! Have a healthy day guys!
