as much as i wish it were an april fools gag, i think this stuff is actually
for sale!
at http://www.veganessentials.com/ i found some pretty ghastly looking stuff
in the 'foods and sweets' and 'meat alternative' sections including those faux
ribs by 'harvest direct'. it struck me as odd though. why the **** would a
vegan
want to eat something that looked like meat? i mean, wouldn't eating something
that even resembled meat repulse the average vegan?

I was vegetarian for 20 years, including 2 as a vegan, and I never
developed a revulsion for meat. I've always been fine with it, and
was never one of those vegans who can't stand the thought of the poor
dead piggies.

(I like the gluten-based "ribs".)

No - many if not most vegans and vegetarians don't avoid meat because
they dislike it but because they think it is unhealthy and/or they think
it is immoral to kill animals for food. Even so I agree that these
"fake ribs" and similar products are silly. And awful, I bet.

I guess it depends on why you're avoiding the meat. I gave up meat, years
ago, for a period of time. Not for heath or moral reasons -- it was on a
bet. I simply gave it up, I didn't try to substitute it with things that
resembled meat. That worked for me. I won the bet and went back to eating
meat the next day.

If it was a long-term thing, though, I might have started considering what
might taste good slathered with bbq sauce, and that might be fake ribs.

Generally, though, I'm not a big fan of substitute foods. If I want
chocolate, I want chocolate, not some fake-chocolate, low-cal, low-carb
health food thing. I can eat one little piece of chocolate and be happy, but
if I started eating the fake stuff, my chocolate craving would likely
increase rather than decrease. But that's just me. If I had to, health-wise,
give up a particular food, I'd probably just eliminate it and forget about
it.

Couple weeks ago, I bought some turkey bacon. Not that I'm trying to avoid
bacon -- I use so little of it, that avoiding it would be silly. But I
wanted to see what the turkey product was like. It didn't look like bacon,
it didn't fry like bacon, and it didn't taste like bacon. I wouldn't use it
as a substitute for bacon, but it could work well in its own recipes. To me,
it was more like a smoky ham flavor, and it went well in a frittata I made.
I'd buy it again, but not to substitute for bacon.

It's gone, so I guess it was an April Fool article.
