I have been sicker than hell over the Thanksgiving holiday, so not much has really went on with the site. I did fix a Tofurkey log, which is the vegetarian version of turkey, for Thanksgiving since I am trying to stick with my veggie diet another month or so. I prepared a Tofurkey log for me and my nephew, also a vegetarian, to eat for Thanksgiving and everyone ended up trying it which was pretty surprising. I didn't feel sick until about 1/2 way through dinner, so I got some good shots of the fake meat preparation:
This is how the Tofurkey looked after I unboxed it.
Here is the little bag for cooking all the goodies including the fake meat log and some veggies.
Here is the Tofurkey fresh out of the oven.
I did eat a LITTLE bit of the Tofurkey so I could tell you about it. I thought it smelled like either plastic or play-doh fresh out of the box. As it cooked an odd odor was released throughout the house, much like I thought fake meat might. When I cut open the fake meat log it did cut and feel much like regular turkey, but I thought it tasted like bland sawdust with maybe a little seasoning. I would rather eat no meat at all than fake meat. Once you've had real meat I don't think there is any way to really fake it and have it taste good.
I am getting better now, just it time for me to head back to work, but I did finish taping the Jone's Soda Holiday Pack review with my family tonight. So, as soon as I get the video edited and an article written I will post it on the site. I am hoping either later this week or possibly the first of next week. I hope you had a delightful holiday.
