Just a few years ago, was going to save us: from ill health, from climate disaster. It didn't work out, though. Turns out (as we said at the time) got ahead of . We continue to prefer real food.

I tried the Juicy Marbles plant based filet steak today.

It was nice, but the appearance is very meat-like which I found triggered some (illogical) fear that it might actually be meat, that will put some people off - the texture is also fibrous but I'm told less fibrous than actual meat.

Preparation was easy as I chose not to salt it and leave it for an hour, so just pan sealed it and sliced it before frying the slices again. There's no real flavour so it will need flavoured oil or seasoning, and be aware it spits a *lot* in oil.

If you're triggered by the appearance of meat this isn't for you, personally I'm more used to faux "meats" which are approximations and I've been able to get my head round them, but as these things develop they'll become harder to differentiate and I'm going to have to reconsider how I approach them.

Verdict on the fake meat Simulate brand NUGGS. They were really good! The taste was good, and they reminded me a bit of when I was a kid and not a vegetarian and would eat McDs nuggets. The texture was also good. I made them in the air fryer and they were nice and crispy. Quite satisfying to eat. My only regret is that I didn’t have anything to dip them in!

My birthday present from my friend was fake meat vegetarian nuggets. She knows me too well 😂 I’m super excited because I’ve wanted to try these ones for ages, but thought they didn’t have them in Canada! They also have dinosaur shaped ones, and despite me being 31 with no children, I will most definitely be buying them soon if I like these ones!

This sounds like a sci-fi horror movie in the making 😱

“Company genetically engineers fruit flies to be "biofactories" for fake meat production. The flies are engineered to produce growth factors, then killed and ground up into a mass from which the desired protein for making lab-grown meat is extracted.”

Whilst I still work on this (yes I’m busy doing other stuff too! It’s all new to me!) here is a link to my abillion profile where I’ve reviewed over 200 products and dishes.

It’s a centralised service with an algorithm and ads, yuck, but each review earns you money to donate to :vegan: vegan charities of your choice, yay!
