They’re not made for people like us who have been veggie or vegan for years and have learned to cook with pulses, legumes, etc. They’re designed for people who want to cut back or give up meat but have to break the cultural training that every meal needs meat. Also they allow casual food places that don’t have professional chefs like pubs, cafes, etc to have quick and easy veggie options on the menu.
This is what people don’t get, if you’ve been veggie for years then you don’t need meat substitutes, these products are for normies trying to cut back or give up while they break the cultural training.
Yeah, that’s why things like Indian, Chinese and West Indian cuisine became parts of British cuisine bu osmosis is it? Get to fuck with this racist nonsense.
I don’t know what country you’re in, but lots of Indians in the UK are actuall run by Bangladeshis and the food is a bit middling. Once you find a good one you become loyal.
That’s not a very uplifting comment. But to clarify, we don’t have the old disposable ones here anymore. You can still buy a 20p harder wearing plastic bag at the checkout with the intention that it’s reused, handy when you’ve popped in unexpectedly but most people are taking their own now.
There’s a difference in what’s made illegal and peoples demand. There’s little demand for guns in the UK since they were made largely illegal for example which is why one gun was linked to 30 odd cases when found as they’re not flooding the black market. There’s a big demand for drugs and if they’re made illegal, cigarettes.
Fair play to them, as a real ale drinking Brit, I wouldn’t touch this or bud light with a bargepole, but if it a corp outwardly supporting LGBT rights then I hope it does well.
