Who has worked with it? How does it taste? Can you treat it just like meat?

    It's wheat gluten. It takes on the flavor of what you cook it with. It's kinda got the texture of pulled or shredded meat. I've found that it tastes great. I've eaten it in a burrito in place of meat and had it at a vegan restaurant served in a BBQ sauce like pulled pork.
    I've never cooked it myself. though.

    By the way, I took my meat-lovin' fiance and best friend to the vegan restaurant to try the "BBQ pulled pork" version of seitan and they loved it. Suckers! :laugh:

    :laugh: Must be good then! Obviously not for celiacs though! I may have to try some sometime if I ever run across any. It could be a decade or so before I see any here in Montana - I just started finding endamame in the stores this year! I don't buy it, but it finally made it here :laugh:
