Vegetarian Lobster

No Ploom no!! 😱 It’s not what it looks like! 😭 I swear I’d never hurt an animal 💔 …is something I should have said longer ago 😔 We think we may have it hard, but every day millions of animals are murdered for our greed when many of us already live in an age of excess 👎 There is an undeniable cultural aspect to food & especially the consumption and/or appearance of certain foods. That’s why I think #fakemeat is a great stepping stone for those looking to make the switch 🤗 In fact there is a long rooted history of the practice in China owing to Buddhist monks https://www.vice.com/en/article/8xyqqz/the-origins-of-fake-meat-are-rooted-in-chinese-cooking 🪷 This definitely looks the part from the outside, even if doesn’t try to be a perfect copy, but how does it taste? Not bad actually! I was expecting gluten or seitan given the texture of lobster but they actually use #texturedvegetableprotein / #tvp instead here! 🦞 As such it is a little more chewy than expected, but it tasted just as tasteless as #lobster anyways 🤷‍♀️ Why do we feel the urge to murder such cool animals again? None of that matters though; Pick compassion the next time you shop 😇 It would make Ploom the isopod uber happy! #veganisnotscary #isopodsofabv #govegan #goveganfortheanimals
