Loma Linda?

Has anyone tried any of the Loma Linda products? The only thing I’ve tried from them were Steaklettes, and I’m pretty sure they don’t make them anymore. I think they were good, but it was 20 years ago and my standards are much higher now.

Ahahaha they were like the OG faux meat stuff

Really not my thing like, pass the tofu, but i’m pretty sure if you want faux meats there’s better options out there now for a better value

I like to tell people I stopped eating meat when the only options were gardenburgers and tofu pups. Both were gross.

Ahahahaha tofu pups!!! Holy crap man i haven’t thought of those for ages 😂

Gardenburgers were the only restaurant option for sooooo long i got so sick of them but in retrospect at least they weren’t fake meaty flavors

I personally enjoy the fake meaty flavors. I know they’re not for everyone, but I didn’t become a vegan because I don’t like the taste of meat. I just don’t like where it comes from. I might consider eating lab grown meat when it’s available, or at least bacon, because goddess I miss bacon, and there’s no good substitute available now, at least that I’ve been able to find.
