    I always liked Boca better for the soy 'burger' patties, but if I remember right, Morningstar makes a good fake chicken patty.

    they are okay, nothing to write home about. I don't really care for them because GMO soy they use. There are better tasting veggie products out there like Amy's and Sunshine burgers.

    I'm new to the Morning Star products also, but from what I've tried, I can tell you that they are really tasty! So far I've only had the grillers original and the black bean kinds and those really wowed me.

    Currently I've got a box of the 'turk'y' and 'mushroom lover's' sitting in the fridge but I haven't opened either one. I'll keep a head's up for ya.

    I recently tried their "Mushroom Lovers Burgers" and loved them.

    The Spicy Black Bean burgers are to die for! And I like the "chicken" patties quite a lot too. Boca has a better "burger" IMO.

    I prefer Boca, but I am fine with Morning Star too. The one thing that I hated, was the grilled chicken strips (Obviously not real chicken) besides that, Morning Star products taste fine to me.

    I like Dr. Praeger's best... but I do eat the MorningStar Grillers Chick'n and the MorningStar Spicy Black Bean.

    I use the Crumbles for Veggie Tacos and the "Meatballs" in Spaghetti. They both taste good, too.

    I've liked the chicken patty, grilled chicken, and the original sausage patty. If you want a veggie burger, go for Boca. Much better in my opinion. I recently had a Garden Veggie burger from Morning Star and it made me gag.

    I personally really like the original "sausage" patties, chicken patties and the corndogs. The crumbles are very good too in taco salads and chili.

    Love them! :heart: My kids have no idea that the chik'n patties and nuggets have no actual chicken in them. Plus they also love the corn dogs. I've actually never tried the corn dogs but I've liked everything I've tried. HTH.

    Love the sausage links and spicy bean burger, but stay away from the meal starter "chicken" strips!

    Their "chicken" patties, burgers, and breakfast links are good (I much prefer the links to real meat). An even better meat replacement brand is Gardein. Their Seven Grain Chickn Tenders are AMAZING.

    I did not read all the entries, so this might be a repeat. BUt I LOVE LOVE LOVE the chipotle black bean burger. There hasn't been a day in almost a year that I haven't had a box in my freezer. So good!!!

    My dietitian recommended me morning star sausage patties telling me a lot of the meat eaters she sees say they like them. So I gave it a try and bought a small box. They were good so I bought a big box at Costco. =P

    Now the only question is what to do with the meat breakfast sausages sitting in the freezer.

    Agree! I love gardein much more.

    Personally I have tried Boca, Morning Star and Quorn as well as Trader Joes stuff.

    I like Quorn because it isn't made with soy and seems to have really high protein and their stuff is delicious. However as far as soy based products, everything from Trader Joes has been far superior than either Boca or Morning Star and almost all their foods are made with non-GMO soy.
  • SPICY BLACK BEAN BURGERS are amazing!!!!!! I also eat their sausage patties with breakfast every morning. Amazing.
