      I mean, you say that, but I’ve actually had a moment of “Wait, is this what the steak people are on about?” with a vegan product before.

      Basically, there’s these texturized soy chunks, which come dry in the package and then you cook them to rehydrate them before you fry them. And yeah, if you take them out of the water too early, they’re chewy AF, and if you’re too late, they become quite spongy…

        While I’m not vegan, we actually should. Meat and dairy is fucking up the planet. I’m thankful for every vegan out there. My wife recently turned vegan and started cooking these amazing dishes, I barely eat meat anymore. But I just can’t do without cheese. Cheese is life. Meat is super unspectacular, even a good steak.
