#118 – Specials

There are many reasons that people are or choose to be vegetarian. For some reason it tickles me to look at all the stuff in the grocery store that are vegetarian but mimic animals products. I guess these are bridges for the reluctant vegetarian to make a transition to food categories they haven’t experienced yet.

    like the dreaded tofurkey? Brr… give me shivers just thinking about it.

    …or, you know, food for people who like the taste of meat but not the killing animals to get it part…

    (Or, for me, who find the fibrous texture that comes with actual flesh unpalatable.)

    I always find that..entertaining. Personally I have vowed to not take a vegan/vegetarian seriously, unless they stop making their stuff taste like the dead animals they complain about. It just boggles my mind….

    Also slightly related. Bacon is the biggest meat that brings people back from the insanity that is veganism/vegetarianism.

      Bacon is the only real reason I couldn’t go vegetarian. Can’t live without it.

  4. You know, there is probably an actual market for a vegetarian cannibal theme restaurant.

    You could call it “My Main Man.”

    I’d rather have the Dish Of The Day at Milliway’s.

    I’ve always wanted to meet the meat.

    How… how do you get something that is simultaneously vegetarian (implying vegetables) and cannibalistic (implying human meat. Note how that is not a vegetable)?

    1. Chris says:

      Vegetarian because it’s made of tofu, cannibalistic because it’s shaped and flavored like a human. Think tofu hot dogs or veggie chicken nuggets.

        So in that case, would this count as such, or would you still be eating meat? Or would it only count as vegetarian if it came from vegetarians?

          Poop burger…call me a geek, but the process described there makes me think of “protein re-sequencers” from Star Trek.

    This is why I distrust anyone who calls himself a humanitarian.

    Eating only grain won’t bring back Chuckler the chicken. Besides, the human body was designed as an omnivore.

  9. Steve says:

    I’ve been a vegetarian for about half my life, and imitation meat tastes nothing like real meat. Some of those products are still pretty good though.

    Vegetarian:
    Ancient tribal slang for the village idiot who can’t hunt, fish or ride.
