There's a Sainsbury's near me that stocks LM's Mozzarella ¼lb Burgers, so if there's a Sainsbury's near you, you could try there? I've always found that of the 'big' supermarkets, Sainsbury's is one of the better options for vegetarian and vegan food, generally speaking. (Although my local Tesco does seem to be improving. The same clearly can't be said for yours!) Alternatively, a lot of health food stores seem to get LM's stuff in, so even if they don't stock them specifically, it might be worth asking if they could order some in for you -- or if not, they'd probably be able to point you in the right direction of somewhere equally local that sells them.

Holland and Barrett are a bit variable but usually have some meat and diary subs (and good sales). Sainsburies have cauldron and quorn as well as own brand sausages and burgers.

Goodness direct does online delivery so you could order a lot and freeze if thats possible for you

I was inspired to have a go at making seitan this weekend (from flour rather than gluten) after reading about it here. I'd eaten it once in a restaurant and hadn't enjoyed it at all (tough and leathery). The homemade one was so much better though, really tasty and a nice texture. It seems very healthy compared to most commercial fake meats and has given me so many ideas for new meals. It's great to have something that's quick to prepare when you get home late too.


Thanks for suggesting it!

I've made seitan quite a lot. It tastes very different depending on how you cook it. I'm not keen on it boiled as it gets a strange spongy texture, but I love it baked in the oven. The flour seems expensive, but it goes a long way and is very filling.
Most of the meat sub burgers tend to be quorn or have eggs in. Once you get onto vegan burgers they are often nut, bean or vegetable mixtures. Sains sells the Linda Mac burgers, but they are expensive. Have you thought of getting some of the burger mixes that you just add water too? My hubby likes a few of those and they are very quick to make and are more along the meaty textures. I have seen seitan mixes that you can buy to make ribs and things, but haven't tried any. I agree that you're probably best to make your own and put them in the freezer for days when you don't feel like making anything.

Iceland veggie burgers are not full of nasties and they taste quite good, my boyfriend really likes them but I'm not really a fake meat lover! The make your own mixes are a lot better and in fact the best ones I've ever had were one's that the other half made out of kidney beans and various other things, he modified a recipe he found online with just random things we had in the cupboards, I don't see why you couldn't freeze a batch of them!
