Random Thoughts On A Bitterly Cold Day..


Recommended Posts

I was at my local Safeway yesterday and I noticed "vegetarian chicken wings" . There was also hot dogs, meat balls, chicken strips, and sausages, all meatless. They were in a cooler in the Fruit and Vegetable area BTW..

 

Why is packaged vegetarian cuisine made to look, smell and taste like meat?

 

Makes about as much sense to me as hot dogs in shapes as carrots and celery.

 

Seems even the vegetarians need a meat fix.

Point. And in doing so they process the livin' bejesus out of it. Maybe they figure if it's going to be not-so-healthy after all, might as well make it look like something they hate. Double guilt theory - makes it OK somehow. I wonder if vegans have these types of running jokes about carnis and omnis.

 

Eat!
