Review: Gardein Home Style Beefless Tips

Gardein Homestyle Beefless Tips- *****
These get 5 stars. I absolutely LOVE these beefless tips. If I could live off one vegan product this would be it. I have had these a few times already. I like to eat them plain. I have cooked them and then ate the refridgerated leftovers cold. They are great with mashed potatoes and corn on the cob. I also had someone tell me these are great in a "beefless" stew. I cannot wait to try that. I am actually salivating right now thinking of these beefless tips. These can be purchased at most Super Targets and Whole Food Co-ops. I got mine at Cub Foods.

Review: Light Life Smart Dogs

Light Life Smart Dogs- *****
I gave these veggie dogs 5 stars because they were the best veggie dogs I have tried. They had the consistency of regular hot dogs and I was able to cook them any way I choosed and they turned out well. I also liked the flavor. Bring these to a BBQ and share with everyone. The kids dont notice a difference. Also, these are one veggie dog that non veggies will say is good. My 15 year old nephew ate these right up. He is not a vegan but is usually willing to try things like this and eat them again after having them once.

Review: Yves Veggie Dogs- The Good Dog

Yves Veggie Dogs- The Good Dog: ***
Ok, so I tried these back when I was a vegetarian and I thought they were a little gross. I boiled them like I normally would boil hot dogs. They had a weird consistency and tasted "a little weird." So I didn't buy then for awhile. Then one day I tried them again but I had them in the microwave and I put them in a wrap with vegetarian chili. That was pretty good. Then another time I had them in a tortilla with BBQ sauce and pickles. That was also pretty good. I found that if I ate them uncooked I like them alot better. I will eat them right out of the package as a quick snack or slice them lengthwise to put on a sub when I was out of vegan balogna. I would have given this 4 stars if it wasn't for the fact that I found a brand that I liked much better! I will eat these again but most likely they will be uncooked.

Review: Rice Dream Mint Pie

Rice Dream Mint Pie: *****
This one got 5 stars because it was DELICIOUS! It was a minty chocolately Heaven in a tiny package. I stopped at the Whole Foods Co-op. I just wanted a quick snack so I grabbed one of these. I ate it in the car on the way to the waterpark. Wow it was so good. Of course it didn't taste quite as creamy as dairy ice cream does but it was so good it didn't matter. I would like to go back there and buy a whole box to stash in my freezer. I can't remember how much I paid for it but I know it was less than $2. Maybe $1.59? Either way it was worth it.

Review: Yves Meatless Balogna

Yves Meatless Deli Balogna: *****
I give this 5 stars because it tastes so close to balogna that nobody even notices the difference. When I gave it to my daughter she looked scared for a minute and asked if this was real meat or fake. I told her it was not real meat and she got this look of relief. She smiled and took a bite then said, "This is so good that it tastes better than REAL balogna!" I had her cousins try some and they agreed that it was acceptable. We had these on wheat sub rolls from the bakery with shredded lettuce, pickles, and vegan cheese slices. It tasted great and we spent way less on 8 subs than we would have spent at Subway. It tasted great and only took a few minutes to put together. We were very pleased.

Review: Tofurky Deli Slices Hickory Smoked

Tofurky Deli Slices Hickory Smoked: *****
I had to give this 5 stars. It was the perfect meatless deli slice option. My mouth is watering thinking of it but sadly I ate every last slice. It tasted just like real sliced turkey only without the dead flesh taste. The texture was the same, the flavor was so close that had I not taken it from the package myself I would have been questioning whether it was real or not. It was delicious on a sandwich and so good that I ate the slices alone. They were great with tofutti cheese slices and pickles on wheat bread. I am thinking of buying a whole case of this stuff.

Review: Tofurky Deli Slices Peppered

Tofurky Deli Slices Peppered: ****
I had been searching for a meatless deli slice option for my sandwiches. I was getting tired of pb and j. I love the Yves Meatless Balogna but I wanted something different. I found Tofurky. All I can say is yum!
I gave the peppered kind 4 stars. I would have given it 5 stars but it was a little TOO peppery for me. It was something I enjoyed but I would have to be in a special mood for it to have it again. It actually wasnt too bad for price either compared to the Yves options. I would recommend it if you enjoy peppered deli meat.
