Which do you like better and why?
Or is there a better brand? I think I'm just tired of meat, preparing meat, and tasting meat.
Boca
Morning Star
Ew to both and I'm a omnivore
Ew to both and I'm a vegetarian/vegan

Morning Star for sure. Boca tastes sooo gross. I think MS is actually quite tasty. I lived by it when I was veggie and still eat it on a regular basis now.
both are gross and unhealthy. I have pretty much written off all fake meat products, because a lot of them still have egg whites and milk and the ones that are vegan are full of soy and sulfites, not healthy at all. I don't even eat tofu anymore, I just eat tempeh.





Gypsy, could you suggest a yummy tempeh brand? I want to try it but been afraid because it looks so ugly.

Whats Tempeh?




Boca Boca Boca! They have less grease and generally taste better. However, Gardenburger rocks my socks.



I like everything morningstar farms makes. Even the bbq riblet...it tastes just like a McRib!
I like Bocas burgers, but everything else I like Morningstar better. MS's black bean spicy burgers are YUMMMMMY!!
Morning Star x 10000!!!
I love this stuff. Its more delicious than regular meat imo.
I like boca's "meat" crumbles but I don't like thier fake burgers so much. Garden burger is way better for that. Some of morning star's chicken is just gross, but those fake bacon strips are so good on a "B"LT.. Quorn is the best chicken alternative IMO.
As for boca or morningstar, It's a toss up for me, it really depends on which product.
I eat Boca because of the nutrition labels... less calories. I think they taste good, too. (Even their fake bacon and you know me!)
I don't know of any good tempeh brands, but I think tempeh makes for an excellent sandwich!
If you think school is hard, try being stupid.
I like Boca because they sell them at Costco and I'm cheap.
But I really prefer Gardenburger, or sometimes California Burger.
the best fake meats, imo, are gimme lean brands, Tofurkey italian sausage, Ives sausage and the all time best
gardenburger riblets. OMFG.
Overall I prefer Morningstar, except in the case of faux chicken products. I think Boca does slightly better.

I think Morning Star is THE BEST. They have a bunch of different veggie burgers that kick ass.
Tomato Basil
Mushroom Lovers
Spicy Black Bean
Seriously delish





Another vote for the Gardenburger! I LOVE them. Seriously, I eat one almost everyday. Perhaps, there's crack in them, but I don't care. I used to love Bocachicken but it makes my belly hurt now. I must try these riblets...





+1 on gardenburger riblets. mmm. ps im not veg but i eat vegan a lot.
Love it!
I like Morning Star better, but I buy both. I really like Morning Star's buffalo chicken nuggets, their fake bacon, and mushroom cheese nuggets. I do not like their Eggs Florentine though. I also like Boca's spicy chicken patties. I think Morning Star has a little more calories because a lot of their products have cheese or breading.
Do you have a Food Basics near you? (same company as Super Fresh and A&P) They sell both Boca and Morning Star products, and for a few dollars cheaper than other food stores.
i love me some morning star!! Somebody wanna mail some to Germany for me please!!???
Morningstar kicks ass! Boca tasts too much like real meat to me. Yuck!
Voted Morningstar, as it has more options for vegans. I rarely by anything besides the Starter Strips (usually to impress others) because of the prices.
In Portland there are many cheaper and better brands in various stores (lots of good imports in Asian groceries and Food Fight), and I've made my own fake meat in the bread machine/crock-pot (very very cost-effective and realistic), so we have options.
Morningstar's Starter Strips are really good to feed to omnis, though.
i love moringstar they make the best broccli chessy things and there meats are good to.





Um, did they drastically change the taste/formula of Boca burgers? I can remember when they first came out and my mom bought them so we could try them, and they tasted pretty similar to a real hamburger, we both rather liked it. Remembering this, recently I bought some Boca burgers and I couldn't take more than a bite. It was disgusting to me. And the taste lingered in my mouth forever and it made me lose my appetite for the rest of the day. WTF?
