PAH are my brother's initials and he is not synthetic!

Anyway, why would I wanna synthesize proteins when I can just have some rice & beans?

People seem to think tofu injected with all sorts of crazy proteins and fake meat flavor is the most humane and wonderful thing in the world. To me it sounds kinda like eating a piece of jello that fell on the floor in a house full of animals.

You know that Jello is made from boiling animal bones, right?

Yes. Yes I do. My point is that it's unnatural ;) and if it fell on the floor of a house full of animals it would be especially not tasty!

I'm not sure how tofu is any less natural in production than peanut butter or vegemite or bread, even.

I don't think I was being rude in any way. I was just expressing my opinion, too.

Just for the record, i've never liked Jello either hehe. Jello and Tofu get ranked on the same level in my brain, i'm not sure why hahaha.

Maybe cause they're both squishy and wiggly?

Yeah, i think it's the wiggly-ness of it all. Most likely. Though it always turns me off to eat things with no flavor (example: tofu). I never quite got tofu, because even when it's flavored, it just tastes like nothing to me. It tastes like nothing, with a hint of something, and jiggles around in my mouth haha.

Actually, fake meat products are usually made from gluten or texturized soy protein rather than tofu. Tofu is not the only product that can be made from soybeans; calling all soy products "tofu" is rather like calling all dairy products "cheese".

I think you've all failed to sense that my comments are made with humor and personal opinions in mind. Way to go sense of humor! I don't really give a shit who eats tofu for dinner, or who doesn't eat meat. It's a personal choice, and oddly enough I can accept that.

As well, please note i never said fake meat products were made of tofu. I said tofu was flavored with fake meat.

I've never seen or bought a product consisting of tofu flavored with fake meat. I'm not even sure what that would mean. "Fake meat" is not a flavor, any more than "cereal" is a flavor.

It's generally a useful skill to accept a correction without responding with a great deal of irrelevant defensiveness.

Fake meat, as in artificial meat flavorings.

Anyhow, for the sake of not being a dick to Sub, I will not continue this little 'disagreement' on his journal. I think he probably likes people bitching at eachother in his comment section as much as he enjoys having a root canal.

All along I thought soy was a natural source of protein!

Please read my above comment, as i don't feel like flooding Sub's comment section with repeat messages.
