    So you decided to make an entire thread just to insult vegetarian/vegans because what MFP really needs is more vegetarian bashing? Not to mention you judge the entire diet of a vegetarian on some pre-packaged meat substitute? Wow this thread is super myopic and uber unkind but still I wish you well in your pursuits at finding whatever the heck you are seeking.

    So the OP automatically assumes that if we don't eat the "heavenly and most nutritious meat" then we have to have meat substitutes and that all vegetarians eat meat substitutes because we can't live without it..Those things are vile and all the news lately about Soy beans (which is what is in most of the fake burgers etc.) is seriously harmful for humans, also people who eat meat are susceptible to it as well because the animals eat a lot of these genetically modified soy beans and feed.

    I usually know better then to respond to a troll-thread, i'm sure your sitting back with your coffee with a smug look thinking "how can anyone be vegetarian and have to eat those things!"..whatever..

    HATERS GONNA HATE, OH NOES A PUNY VEGETARIAN

    ...

    I hate bacon.

    I don't understand it and I don't like it.

    And I often wonder; How do people even eat this?

    But I don't applaud them. Because I recognize that everyone has things they like and things they dislike.

    End of story.

    Sounds like user error to me.



    Also, why assume that vegetarians all like morningstar products, or even a SPECIFIC morningstar product?

    Im sorry... but if you try their corn dogs and Chik'n'Nuggets they are pretty freaking awesome. Haters gonna Hate

    I eat tons of meat. Love it. I also love the morningstar sausage patties. I eat one almost every morning crumbled into an egg and veggie scramble. Go figure.

    I prefer the Boca original 'chicken' patty. It's tasy, especially with a little bit of cheese melted on it and some bar b q sauce!

    I truly do applaud vegetarians, it must be really hard. I got a taste of that when I was pregnant and had a meat aversion. The look, smell, or taste of meat was just abhorrent. It was so hard to find things on menus that were healthy on a day to day basis. Most "vegetarian options" were just stuffed with cheese and fried. I gained sooo much weight. Others just tasted awful. I can't say how many times I sat through a work event, picking at he "vegetarian option" and then ordering French fries because I was starving. Any 5 months without meat and I found out that it is much easier to lose weight when I can eat lean protein. But I did discover lots of home options... Like quinoa, and grilled seitan and veggies.

    I'm really sorry if anyone thought I was "bashing" vegetarians because that was not my intention.
    And I also never implied that ALL vegetarians eat meat substitutes.
    I believe that everyone has their own way of eating and living and I find vegetarians very inspiring people.

    Again, I sorry if anyone was offended.
