Hold the pork
This week in Gourmet:
Three meatless tacos worth your time
Sure, textured vegetable protein is cheap (it’s a byproduct of soybean oil production) and the reconstituted soy flakes are filling. The texture is even reminiscent of ground beef, which is why it’s often used for vegetarian sloppy joes and other meat substitutes. Yes, TVP would make a perfect taco if it didn’t taste like reconstituted soy flakes.

I thought there was a bug in my RSS reader when I saw r&g w/an article titled “Hold the Pork.”
