Tofurkey?
 
ALL of my seven sisters have become veggie nut cases although
fortunately their kids have not succumbed. So, I was naturally
skeptical to see a vague meat-looking waaaaay too symmetrical blob
covered with gravy and dressing at Thanksgiving AND, there was an
identical one next to it. Yeah, sorta meat-like texture but no
internal structure. I just had to ask, Yup, it was Tofurkey and to be
nice I had to take some. If you smothered it with enough gravy and
had a few drinks, MAYBE you could accept it.
Fortunately, my brother had made some smoked turkey and brother in law
made some smoked mullet.

If you removed the 'r' from that word, it might be more descriptive.

I have never ever met a vegetarian who was NOT a nutcase. If this is so
good for you, why is it that the practitioners of it are so agressively
adamant about it? It seems to radically change their internal chemistry,
and dominoes into their personality. Some of these people who you would
think eat nuts and berries turn into people with the personality of grizzly
bears.

Just MHO, YMMV

I went without eating beef for 15 years, not because of my health but
because of the perversity of supporting a system that plunders our
country's resources.

Vegetarians, in my experience, are more likely to be aware of their
own health and the health of the environment. No wonder the Bigot
Steve doesn't understand them.

Your life is wracked by fear of almost everything. Poor boy.

Why would someone be branded a "nut case" because they've decided on a
healthier lifestyle? Seems as though you wingnuts instantly brand
someone that doesn't live your exact lifestyle as nutcases or some
such. Why is that?
And I LOVE smoked mullet.

It's not so much being the veggie head that makes them "nut cases". It's
the other aspects of their personalities that seems to go along with
that lifestyle, at least up here in the North :)

I had a friend that was a vegatarian. It was just crazy in her mid
thirties hearing her try to tell us that "no animal in the world really
eats meat, only us". What I said? What about Lions I asked? She
explained to me that Lions don't eat meat, "they rip open the animals
and only eat the stomach contents of grass and stuff"! That was about
when I admitted I was an animal and a terrible person for eating meat,
and went on with it...

Most vegetarians aren't concerned with whether animals in the wild eat
meat or not. Most are concerned with human consumption gone wild. What
we have in this country now days is NOTHING short of animal factories.
I've seen it first hand. Animals aren't treated with any regard to
pain, living conditions or anything short of getting them fattened up
and ready for sale. There is also the aspect about what those huge
farms are doing to the environment, let alone eating diseased
animals.
Isn't this a lovely sight:

I really doubt that if there is a God, he'd want us treating his
creatures like this.
