Probably not.
Mr C was very firmly put in his place by a militant veggie was he tried to serve her a quorn 'meat' pie.
I tried to tell him that it wasn't the done thing to do, but in his eyes because it didn't contain meat it would be fine."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

If they don't eat animals because of ethical reasons I don't see why not......my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

Quorn Bacon = Fakon
Quorn Ham = Sham
Quorn Chicken = MockadoodledooScience isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Why not just eat lots of varied veg if you're a veggie?And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

Exactly, why have quorn shaped like a lamb chop, or a sausage or whatever?
Why not come up with some new "Quorn" shaped items.Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.Comment

By making it into fake mince or fake ham or fake chicken (or variations there of) adds flavour and variety. We don't eat fake mince, fake ham or fake variations there off in order to experience what meat tastes like. Veg offers what we need for Carbs, but lacks the necessary protein we need to survive.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

Of course, this new stuff will lead to an entirely new group including vegetarians AND meat-eaters, who refuse to eat 'unnatural' food.
I wonder if this could be one of the major changes that happens in our lifetimes.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
