LOL the girls out here wouldn't touch a cheez-it....they all carry carrot sticks, which is disgusting because they munch them while sipping on a grande soy latte with extra foam....if they eat at all. California is the anorexia capitol of the U.S.

Before I read where you were from, the post automatically made me think of the West Coast. The wimmins in Seattle did that a lot, too. I had one try to convince me to go to a place called 'The Gravity Bar' with her. She showed me the menu, insisting it was great. They offered such wonderful treats as a pita filled with tofu, tempeh, quinoa, brown rice celery & sprouts. To top this off, you could have a fresh glass of grapefruit, lemon, garlic, olive oil and cayenne juice.

Ick, tofu is almost as bad as falafel, or puffed Kashi.....I think the California lifestyle has infected the whole western seaboard. Still, it takes all kinds. I wouldn't live anywhere else in this country.

Tofu is very plain by nature...one has to learn to, yknow...put it with stuff that compliments it, it's like a sponge, filling, yet tasteless in its natural state, and ultra-healthy unless its deep fried. But, if you don't like it, it's more than likely you've just never had it done well. It's excellent in a stirfry or laksa/noodles, and if sliced relatively thin and pan-fried until golden, in a burger with avocado, garlic, thai sweet chilli, soy and alfalfa sprouts, maybe some cracked pepper and a pinch of salt...ot if you learn to make pad thai, it just goes supremely well, I wouldn't prepare one without it...I don't think many people LOVE tofu, it's just something that's a filling alternative to fattier/unhealthier things that can actually be quite nice. All about the effort involved.

As for your problem with falafels...I don't get it myself, but on a suggestive basis, I'd say not to eat them on their own as they're rather dry, they're also something that should be eaten hot and fresh and crispy, not kept behind the window of a store, cold, or reheated as they often are...I like mine made from scratch (more flavour), with tahini and garlic sauce, broken up into pita bread with some chopped lettuce, tomato, chopped cucumber, corriander and lemon juice.

It's the vegitarian food myth...lots of people thing vego food is just shit...but, the truth is, vego food is only shit when you don't know what you're doing.

re: The cracker problem - Bring your own snacks.

I just don't like vegan food. And as far as being hellbound, if this is the most hellbound part of the country....bring it on.

Yeah, I think tofu has its place. But not in a pita sandwich! I had the most marvelous salad once with flaked smoked firm tofu and sweet miso dressing...it was awesome. It was sort of a smoked salmon effect they were going for.

Tofu in hot and spicy and Indian food is TO DIE FOR!!

My friend Wes can take an ordinary box of couscous, tofu, sundried tomatos, parm cheese, and make a meal fit for the Gods. My friend Katie is the same way. She made this tofu spinache pie on this crust (Cheeba, maybe you can help me- the grain didn't have wheat or wheat glutten...it was brown, pardon- but a grainery texture, a litely bitter taste, but good) anyway, that shit was good eatin... Tofutti ice treat...bars or the ice cream-like tofu cream, delice!

I have nooo problem with vego food. If I didn't live with my carnivorous dad in the middle of Southern no where with no health food stores within a million miles, I'd definitely indulge in better and healthier cuisine.

While in college, I did all of my grocery shopping at a health food store. It cost a lot more, but the quality and the health benefits were worth it. Plus they had an itty-bitty cutesy little occult section. (Wanna go shopping with me sometime, Pr3ssur3)

Oo oo! I used to buy this miso salad dressing at the my old grocery haunt.. Holy shit, I used to put it on my tofu burgers.... Yummy!
