    One of the things that annoys me about vegans… is they always try to convince me [this recipe] always tastes like the real thing.

    And I think any one who eats meat on a regular basis is going to know an impossible burger is not beef- it might be the closest, sure.

    Probably the best way to “convert” people- or encourage reductions- is to be less apologetic. Tofu is wonderful and delicious as it’s own thing- but as tofu-chicken or tofurky or anything of that sort, it sets expectations that can never be met.

    Forgetting to mention a dish that stands in its own happens to be meatless… well, my parents were halfway through the second bowl of a tofu stir fry before they realized it.

      And one thing that annoys me about non-vegans is that they always tend to stereotype vegans. There are nearly 100 million vegans in the world my friend. We are not all the same.
