[–] trouble@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago (1 child) I grew up on a farm and enjoy eating meat permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AlreadyDefederated@midwest.social 5 points 1 year ago (1 child) Have you tried some good alternatives to meat? Like, try seitan* crumbles in a taco. With all the spices and other toppings it's really hard to tell the difference. Also, I find it almost impossible to tell an Impossible Whopper with Cheese from a regular Whopper with Cheese, after all the glop they put on it. I know those are both bottom-of-the-barrel meat choices, but maybe branch out and try a thing or two. If you don't like it - no biggie. I've tried casually dipping my toes into the vegetarian pool with just occasional meat substitutions. Occasionally I find something that's "No way" but more often than not, I find something that is also really tasty. It's not meat, but it's also tasty in a different way, so I don't miss meat as much. I've found vegetarian dishes I actually like. My biggest problem however is getting enough protein in my diet when I start eating mostly veggies. [* Seitan only if you can handle gluten. Because, it's like 100% gluten! ] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 child) Meat alternatives are a nice thought. I'm glad they exist for people who can accept them in place of meat. I haven't found them to be very good substitutes yet so I'm not there. I've had the impossible whopper, and while it's good, it's not a replacement for me. Hopefully more options come over the years. I'm hopeful for lab grown meat personally since it'd still be meat, just ethically produced. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 5 points 1 year ago (1 child) It's crazy that people don't like meat substitutes, but if you tell them it's not a meat substitute, but actually a special cow from nepal with a different taste, it's suddenly good and exotic. I hate it when it doesn't taste like animal suffering. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago Slaneesh would agree. permalink fedilink source parent
