What the fuck is the 'authentic experience' of a chicken nugget that seitan is incapable of replicating, anyways? Also the burger patties I ate in school as a cringe baby carnist were 60% TVP soy to begin with, so if anything I'm being even more honest with my frozen slabs now

Also, and this is a bit of a different issue, but there is absolutely no reason that "meat" has to mean animal flesh. Historically the word "meat" has been used to refer to all sorts of things. Nutmeat and sweetmeats are the two examples that spring to mind immediately, neither of which is dead animal. I support taking back the word "meat" from the carnists. Yeah, I eat meat, it's soy meat and it's delicious! No dead animal involved!

The only modern use of the old definition is in mincemeat pie...

That being said, I think the chuds are gonna do a slogan of "put the meat back in mincemeat pie" or somethin', when someone tells them that fact...

Honestly if someone has a vegan or vegetarian recipe for mincemeat pie, feel free to send me your favorite recipes. I've been wanting to find something that can match the stupidly umami and salty notes of an Australian pie. Vegetarian is cool with me too, honestly.

I think we're referring to different mincemeat pies (the one I'm talking about is the one ironically without much beef or suet, and it's rather sweet)

Australian mie pies probably need something like a mushroom gravy and some nice seitan and tofu to substitute for that

However, I did find this prbly Quebecois dish
