The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Really? They're multiple times more here

Srsly? Wow. I've seen immposible go for around ten dollars, gardien for like 5, and then morning star and quorn for around 3. I don't buy any of them because baking my own tofu ones is easy and I enooy cooking.

This is on the west coast US

In Australia they’re basically triple price. I can get 500g of Australian chicken nuggets for $3.50 or 280g of Quorn for $7

Share the tofu recipe? I’d probably beyond my skill as a cook, but I’m always interested to learn more.

It's honestly not that tricky, just a little time intensive. My secret, not-so-secret trick for all tofu is to freeze it immediately, then dethaw day of with warm water/microwave on low/leaving on the counter all day/night. The freezing proces changes the texture in to something super tender!

Yeah around me they are at least double. Usually like 2.5-3x more expensive. It's the only thing that stops me from getting them like constantly

They are CONSIDERABLY better. Especially with BBQ sauce!

I'm pretty sure that last sentence is about to get me kicked out of Texas

Nuggies with BBQ is the only way my friend.
