^- There's the inspiration for my latest poll (scanned from last Sunday's comics), and here's the actual poll:
*
(1) Which of the following have you eaten at least once in your life?:
* Tofu and/or stuff made from tofu?
* Stuff made from soy proteins (e.g. soy milk)?
* Stuff made from vegetables/vegetable proteins (e.g. Gardenburgers)?
Of course, the above list is anything but exhaustive when it comes to fake foods/food substitutes, but I wanted to keep this poll from being too broad. ANYWAY...
(2) Of the previously listed stuff you HAVE eaten, what'd you think of each one?
*
Me? Well, I'm not neccessarily a health nut or whatever, but I have eaten some of the previous foods several years back when my family tried to cut back on cholesterol. Anyway, here are my answers (I'm working from memory here):
(1) * Tofu and/or stuff made from tofu? - Nope!
* Stuff made from soy proteins (e.g. soy milk)? - Yep. I've drank Silk (which is soy milk).
* Stuff made from vegetables/vegetable proteins (e.g. Gardenburgers)? - Yep. I've eaten Gardenburgers before.
I've also had fake bacon before, but I can't remember if it was made of soy protein or veggies (or both). :notfunny:
(2) Chocolate Silk is quite delicious (but then again, chocolate makes EVERYTHING taste good, doesn't it? ;))...Vanilla Silk is just okay. Gardenburgers are okay if you drown 'em in ketchup (:P). The fake bacon was okayish, but the real thing is better, for sure (just like with the burgers).
And how 'bout you? :)
P.S. - If any Mods think that the comic strip at the beginning of my post is too big or something, I'll do something about it the first chance I get.
