    I’m not a vegan and I take issue with you saying you’ll have a delicious turkey… I’m not sure such a thing exists.

    That said, I DID just finish putting one in a brine…

      I do turkey once a year because I am not a fan. It will be delicious to never be seen for another year lol.

      I’ve become more vegetarian friendly over the years but Jesus I hate this fake meat trend. Some of us frankly don’t care about not having something that tastes like meat. I don’t want an ass beyond burger I want an awesome homemade black bean burger.

      I get we are trying to encourage people who would eat meat to not eat meat but it’s really like tying your hand behind your back when it comes to enjoying your food because it will never match meat so why try?

      Veggies rule.

        Strong agree. I don’t want food pretending to be other food so I eat it, I just want food that tastes good.

          Best takeaway of eating more vegetarian meals. I don’t have to worry about those gross bites of meat where a bone slips in or grisel. Ewwwwww

            False. Best takeaway is the fiber increase. It it is nice to have fewer nasty bites though.

            Also, when I DO opt for a steak I don’t feel as bad spending more money and really making a production of it.
