I agree!

I'm not sure where you live but in the UK we have something called This Isn't Bacon that I find rather delicious :)

Too bad, I'm from Germany! I appreciate the tip though :) I also love that product's name and how well it fits into the discussion as a whole :D

It is quite amusing in the context I must say :D

In the UK recently we just keep getting more and more new vegan substitutes, and vegan options in restaurants. It's an exciting time!

Same here, the variety of products seemingly exploded in the past year. I ordered this dried-peas-paste, which just arrived today, from which you're supposed to be able to make burgers, minced meat, and meat patties that aren't burgers (we call them Frikadelle here). Anyway, I'm excited so I wanted to share :D

Coincidentally 2 days ago I tried something similar for the first time - a pea-based powder that you could make burgers out of. It wasn't as good as Beyond Burgers (my favourite of all the frankenmeats I can get here) but, considering its powdery origin, it was surprisingly good! Hope you enjoy yours! :)
