Think this post confuses veganism and vegetarianism. Also it's chemicals all the way down. Those spices? Made of chemicals.

Those alternative burgers are actually pretty tasty but also very heavy because they are imitating beef. For American fare I'd generally prefer a sandwich with deli style meats made out of tofu or seitan, or a bean burger.

"pulled pork" Seitan is probably my favorite fake meat, its got the right mouthfeel.

Haven't been too satisfied with Tofu, its ok, but there's no pretending its not bean cheese.

Lol, I'm calling it bean cheese from now on

Tofu has a lot of range, there are many types of tofu you just won't see that many in a Western market. There are also a lot of ways to prepare tofu, it's very versatile.

You mean to say scientists don't sit in a circle and summon the "Chemicals" from the lower tiers of hell?

vegetarianism minus butter/ghee = veganism. there are tons of dishes in vegetarianism without milk products
