Vegetarian? Or Just a Processed Food Junkie?

Confession: I tried a pretend-meat burger once, either Beyond Meat or Impossible, not sure. And you know what? It was delicious. They really nailed the flavor. Sure, that stuff is a science experiment and worse for your body and the planet than beef, but it did taste surprisingly good.

I had to swerve the car and run over a kitten on the way home just to get my T levels back up and satisfy my lust for literal murder.

(Relax, vegans. Sometimes we make jokes just to watch you have meltdowns.)

Do you find it difficult, especially regarding protein (getting enough)?

Did it work?

I should have clarified in my post–my diet is primarily lacto-ovo vegetarian. I do rely heavily on whey protein, yogurt, and eggs. I also consume a good bit of tofu and lentils. So, protein is not an issue for me. I avoid meat completely, again due to the horror show that is factory farming. I did try Maui Nui venison because they are very humane and ethical in producing the meat. However, due to the cut I chose and my inability to properly cook it, it was not a good experience. Plus it’s a bit pricey.

Probably my favorite meat, preferably hunted myself. A lot of venison cuts can be tough and benefit a lot from a meat mallet and some marinade.
If you can get back straps from a mature doe (the bucks have tougher meat) it beats any beef steak every time.
