Good Afternoon Paul, thank you for the comment - this was not good at all and like most other plant based products it had the texture of MDF boarding that had salt added - Layla does not want to be left out ! lol - Have a great afternoon my friend :-)
Hi Graham, i just don't know what to make of this product. I've been vegetarian & vegan in the past & i think i may have tried tempeh "bacon" rashers. At the time i think i thought they were alright, but i couldn't eat them now. What would you do with them? Put them in a curry? Would it spoil the curry? Hmmm. ..
Good Afternoon Kate, thank you for the comment - I have no idea what they are about - I have tried a few plant based foods and have not liked them with the exception of a couple from Aldi - I find the texture is always questionable and this had no flavour other than salt - It says that you can eat them cold from the pack or to microwave them for a minute - It did say that you can add them to a curry but I do not think I would like to try that ! it was the attractive packaging that drew me to it but we live and learn ! Wishing You a Lovely Afternoon :-)
Good morning Graham - well, that looks totally un appetizing and horrid. I wouldn't have bought it anyway, but your review only confirms my thoughts on these types of 'food' ! Great review as always, but it's a YUK from me. Take care 🙂
Good Morning Michael, thank you for the comment - it was not pleasant at all to be honest ! I have tried several plant based foods and have not enjoyed any of them - I do not know how people can eat these products on a daily basis and honestly say that they enjoy it - The Texture is all wrong and this one had no curry taste at all but it was salty ? I understand the ethics behind it all but for me it just does not work ! Take it easy and have a great Sunday :-)
I'll say it again.. these vegan/no meat/plant-based products always lack something and the weird textures don't help, I don't think I've had one that fulfilled me and to be honest... since I'm a meat eater anyway I'd never buy one of these over the actual meat products. I guess in my opinion these really are only for the folk that don't eat meat which is also fair enough. Disclaimer: Not trying to put down anyone who chooses a meat free diet - just these plant based things aren't for me! Nice review!
Good Morning FergieWergie, thank you for the comment - I have tried several plant based products and they have been very poor in texture and taste and how people can eat this stuff day in day out and be happy beats me - we are Omnivores and we have Canine Teeth for a reason it is to eat meat - I have several Vegan and vegetarian friends and they are happy enough with their choices but they also need to take a lot of supplements to provide what is missing in their diet to maintain health - I fully understand the ethics behind it all and I respect their choices and it would be so nice if they too could respect our choices - Have a great Monday :-)
Hi Graham that looks a bit rough I have never tried Tempeh and don't think I will after your review - Nice to hear Layla! Cheers Paul
