I had pulled jackfruit for the first time in a burrito at tortilla recently and it was delicious. I had the very same the other day. Jackfruit done right I find very similar to how I remember pulled pork. The quorn fishless fillets I found were similar to the cheap battered fish you get in supermarkets where it’s almost minced, but thought they were ok. Shame though as that No Bull range has been fairly decent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've yet to find a decent veggie option from Iceland, which is a shame, as they tend to have a good sized range, and obviously very cheap. But everything's just cardboard, it's like stepping back in time 20 years to when that was true of any imitation meat stuff. Tesco are a bit much better option for vegan stuff, but still a little pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pulled jackfruit on Morrisons salad counter is really good. We had a barbie at work a couple of months ago and the outside caterers brought some as a veggie option and it was tremendous. I had it on my burger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cauliflower ones, as well as the Sweet Potato burgers are especially nice. They have introduced a new vegan burger called the “Miami” but my local one doesn’t have it yet. Supposed to be the best supermarket produced meat free burger yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, my go to now (Thanks Asda) are the Oomph! Burgers, they are the best I have had at home (and I have just bought some of those Birdseye ones to try as well), but the No Bulls for me are really good, even if the cooking instructions are ropey. They were one of the best things I tried in my first month of leaving meat behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Kat Von D Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 Just watched Game Changers and it was brilliant. They cover all aspects of how a plant based diet improves performance. While I’m no athlete I have seen a dramatic improvement in my general health, so was cool to see all the reasons why I feel better at 30 than I did in my early 20s. There is one part which measures erections after plant based meals which was really good. @Scott Malbranque and @Chest Rockwell should definitely give it a watch. Would like to know what you both think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Kat Von D Posted October 13, 2019 Author Share Posted October 13, 2019 Nobody said being vegan is the only way to get strong, it’s just the best way for individuals to reach their personal best.

I agree. It was a good watch and did a decent job of shooting down some of the horror stories and misinforation, but I honestly think the watchers current beliefs will massvly infuence how it is viewed rather than being a tool to try and make people "see the light". I'm beggining to see wrestling the same way people see religion. What's the old saying, "If you beleive, then no evidence is needed. If you don't, then no eviidence will be enough".
