    I'm sure most all of you have heard of Morning Star foods.
    Why not substitute?
    On a night you're going to have burgers, why not have a vege burger? They are so delicious.
    Chicken nuggets, why not Morning Stars?
    So much less fat, no grease, all entirely healthy & delicious.

    Yes, pricey. But who has burgers every night? Who has chicken nuggets every night? I know I don't. Though Morning Star is delicious.. & It does tempt me to make one. Yummy yummy substitution ;)

    lol, all I can think about is that episode of south park called "smug alert" lol - this clip in particular:

    Hahahahaha I love South Park.

    I'm vegan and find this thread to be obnoxious.

    What did you expect, OP? People to look up and say "yeah, you know that sounds like a great idea". All this does is gives people a venue to sing praises for meat.

    Lol ... Drama, drama, drama.

    It is obnoxious... Your comment is obnoxious too.
    So it's hypocritical of you to say the post is when you are.

    Lol it's the INTERNET as I just typed. Relax, geesh. You don't like this topic? Click the X. That's the simple thing about the internet. You can SIMPLY x out your problem. Save the drama for real life, lol. But as most people do, it's easier to fight a battle over the internet, right? Hiding behind a screen?

    I've been called worse things.

    When you open up a forum on the internet, you're inviting people's opinions - whether they agree with you or not. If you aren't prepared to handle that, write it in a diary. As they say, if you can't handle the heat, get outta the kitchen. I found your post on a public forum to be counterproductive, and I don't think it's that much of an issue to tell you that.

    I would love for people to turn to veggie burgers instead of meat burgers and make more compassionate choices. But things like this are completely counterproductive, and actually winds up encouraging people to do what you'd rather they didn't. And I find that upsetting.

    Morning Star has something in their mix that causes me to break out in hives, and itch all over. I am allergic to something in there, it's almost like Anaphlax...I have no problems with Boca Burgers, and I really like the "flame cooked" version. The Boca Chicken patty fakes are unfit for consumption.

    Some of the ingredients are genetically modified...which is gross/bizarre/not normal.

    Livestock is not. They may eat a partially GM diet...but to my knowledge, it doesn't transfer into their meat.

    I'd rather eat a burger than a healthier version with GMO ingredients.

    You sure are. I said opinions welcome but why rude ones? I've been called worse too. Lol, I don't expect my comment over the internet to hurt your feelings. It shouldn't lol. But yeah vege burgers are good. Homemade seem super good.

    Yes, pricey. But who has burgers every night? Who has chicken nuggets every night? I know I don't. Though Morning Star is delicious.. & It does tempt me to make one. Yummy yummy substitution ;)

    Because of this right here. If I am not eating it every night I want to eat the real thing. There is nothing more delicious than a pure beef burger, grilled with all the fixens! I am not substituting that kind of taste. If I am not eating every night then I don't care how bad it is for me once in a while.

    Rarely do I eat a chicken nugget so again if I want to eat them I will eat the real thing.

    For vegetarians:

    There's two of you who commented & seem hurt because you said this topic was just for people to talk **** about vegetarians.

    Sorry. Not my intention. My intention was to help. Yes, that didn't work. But I apologize your feelings got hurt. Just remember, we all make our own decisions & I'm happy you're happy with yours. :)

    For meat eaters:

    I didn't mean never eat meat. Thought it was a healthier option & to substitute sometimes. Try some homemade ones. But my dad is like some of you. He says "THAT'S NOT A BURGER. I don't mind eating it but I want meat." Well eat you some damn meat, lol. I wasn't trying to say "NEVER EAT MEAT! "

    It being obnoxious is your honesty, yes. Nobody said you had to agree. It's more so the "What did you expect OP?" blah, blah thing. Because i already stated that I was TRYING keyword:Trying.. to help. No, that didn't work. Now go down & read all my other comments where I say sorry to those vegetarians who thought it was made for meat eaters to bash vegetarians..
