Vegan

Quorn is way better than tofu or what I assume is some form of seitan you get with some of these. It really is way better flavor and texture than even decent quality chicken nuggets.

This is my entire take on most veg meat replacements. I won't use substitutes in place of higher quality meat, but if I could I'd replace every single instance of low quality meat in my diet with some tofu/cauliflower/tempeh/whatever substitute.

It's probably more that fake chicken in general has been really good for a while now, you'd be hard pressed to know it's not real chicken if you weren't told beforehand. My local shop puts most meat-free stuff all in one corner together, but meat-free chicken nuggets get to go on display next to the real stuff in the freezer section.

Red meat is the difficult stuff, most fakes aren't great and it's almost always easy to tell it's not real meat. When I feel like sausages I usually go for Richmond meat-free ones, I do like them but it's very obvious it's not pork. They have recently released cocktail sausages I love, though!

I bet they are not healthier.

Been doing blind taste test every year and as real chicken nuggie companies cheap out, you can really taste the sadness. Fake chicken nuggets just taste more hefty.

I've had probably 4 or 5 different brands. Two of them were really good, the others were as you described.

I had Franzia and it was horrible! Bitter and it took on plastic flavors from the bag it was stored in.

Colour me skeptical of wine.

While I personally don't do well on a full vegan diet, the vegan food I like is it's own thing, not some terrible imitation of meat.

Indian vegan dishes are amazing for example.

The panel of 1,150 American omnivores liked nuggets from Impossible Foods, MorningStar Farms, Quorn, Rebellyous Foods and Simulate the best

It wasn't a single particular nugget, but an aggregate of vegan nuggets. And I can assure you, that Quorn and Morningstar are definitely cheaper than livestock chicken nuggets.

Bon Appetit's crispy tofu nuggets recipe

I eat meat but I go Qurorn nuggets when I buy frozen to eat less meat but also because they genuinely taste better than chicken goop.

I still think chicken tenders taste better and I have no real issue eating chicken goo but it comes down to three/four things. Price, taste, healthiness, less suffering.

There is ways to get people to eat less meat and it think it starts with some meals being vegan or having some meals that are 50% less meat and then 50% mushrooms/veggies.
