As a chef I can say I have cooked loads of veggie food and unlike some in the trade have no problem with vegetarians and the range of delicious veggie meals are resplendant,


Christmas dinner is easy all the usual trimming and replace the meat with a nice homemade veggie dish and veggie gravy

Good man.

I've been involved with a few family restaurants and have many associates and friends 'in the trade'. Everyone knows that veggie food is the cheapest to make and so is most profitable, admittedly at the lower end of the biz, but so what.

I heard Rimmer say on Radmad last week that he bought Greens coz it was cheap. I went when it was the old one front place and then two front, but never really liked it. I also went to that place in Covent Garden in the nineties [the Creme Egg? or sommat]. Strange.

As a veggie of nearly 30 years, I am not actually a fan of veggie restaurants. I like good options at curry houses [I could name many] or Chinese [the veggie banquet at the Great Wall in China Town was sensational last time I went].

I bought a Quorn substitute turkey thing today . Bang loads of gravy on it and it shouldn't be too dry. Couldn't find veg pig in blankets so just having a couple of Quorn sausages . The Quorn turkey substitute I had last year was really nice.

For the first time in my life I've been considering going vegertarain. The antibiotics and steroid stuff has always concerned me but lately meat has just been repulsing me a lot. I had a few where there has been really jelly like fat and the other day eating ribs a stringy piece that looked like a vein in a prawn, silly things like that keep putting me off.

Search the internet regarding how animals are treated . I was dabbling with the idea of goin veg and reading up on a few things made my mind up for me .

I've actually had something like this for Christmas a few years back and it wasn't all that bad.

I think these types of products can make the transition from meat eater to vegetarian a little easier.

I just had this product for the first time tonight, testing it out for Thursday - looks huge on the picture, but they were small, but 2 in a packet for $5 (about 3 quid 50) so quite cheap, came with a packet of gravy too, have to say very tasty and much preferable than the Tofurk'y (Quorn style) one I had on Thanksgiving (and I liked that too).
So nipping out to get another packet for Thursday :)

Edit - just looked at the picture again and there is a box and a packet. So imagine the actual one in the picture is a longer / bigger one from the box, they only had the packets in my supermarket.
