Hi!
I was wondering what a tofurley tasted like… does anyone know?
what the hell is a tofurley??
Tofu turkey. Could it possibly taste like tofu? Nah, couldn’t be.
My guess - it tastes like chicken.
ummm… sorry about that…
it should be: “What does a Tofurkey taste like?”
I’m gonna be spending the holidays with rabid vegetarians, so it might enter into the equation… I just wanted to know what those things tasted like and if they were good, not good, or just plain weird.
That sucks, glarGH.
Wanna come to our house for a real Thanksgiving feast with actual meat?
I’ve never had tofurkey but I’d guess it tastes something like shag rug or wet newspapers.
Dude… stop by the store and pick up a smoked turkey leg or wing. Feign illness. Something. Anything. Bean Jello isn’t natural food. Bean Jello shaped and painted like a turkey is just wrong. Tofu is not a meat substitute. It’s just tofu. I’m not saying it like it’s a bad thing, but tofu is not meat replacement. It’s just… god man, get a burger on your way to dinner.
I read that PeTA is giving them away .here
I went to a Veggie Thanksgiving a few years ago and while the company was great, the food was horrendous. Instead of making good Veggie food, they made bad fake meatlike food. Big mistake.

I’m a vegetarian, and am perfectly happy to fill up on side dishes at Thanksgiving-- my mom makes some gooood stuff. But, she decided to order a Tofurkey for me just for the hell of it. Last time we talked the store hadn’t gotten the order in yet, but if all goes as well I could very well have post-Tofurkey tales for you this weekend.
I hope it doesn’t suck.
You an’ me both, Rosebud, you an’ me both.
I’d be willing to try it just for the hell of it, because I’m fearless… I like tofu. I like raw wiggly tofu, I like baked flavored tofu, hell, I even like the Boca burger. That Tofurkey better not taste like baked sponge, thats for damn sure.
I’m gonna go to the health food store and see if they have any free samples
Tofurkey is excellent! The vegetarian stuffing, “giblet” gravy and tempeh drumettes that come with the deluxe meal are even better. While Tofurkey doesn’t taste exactly like turkey (more like spicy tofu), it’s quite good and the consistancy is meatlike.
I’m the manager of a large health food store, and the demand for this stuff is incredible. We ordered double last year’s order and still ran out today. And at $9.99 for a 3#“bird”, it’s a great sales producer for us for the holidays. We advertise it extensively and will be getting a huge order of them for Christmas.
Don’t knock it unless you’ve tried it!
I can’t imagine eating tofu, let alone tofu shaped like an animal. I mean, think about it. The tofurkey is basically spongey bean stuff, and yet to your conscious impression it looks like something you’ve always recognized as being meat. Imagine sticking an authentic-looking piece of it in your mouth and biting, only to find a kind of, well, spongey bean stuff flavor in your mouth. It would be like waking up one morning to find that Stop signs, blood and the matador’s cape on TV are all suddenly colored blue. It constitutes a shock to the system, I tell you.
glarGH, if you’re gonna do this, for your own sake, be careful. Remember, small bites. Ease into it.
Just whatever you do, don’t ever let yourself fall into the trap of thinking it’s a turkey. 'Cause, baby, it’s not.
Hell, if there’s no meat, what is there to be thankful for?
I had a “proto-steak” once, a “veg” made me eat it, it sucked,
it was made from shredded mushrooms formed to look like steak (a really bad idea), I have no problem with mushrooms but trying to make them look like steak is just wrong.
If god did not want us to eat the animals, he would not have made them out of meat.

Won’t be nearly as entertaining as when WKRP decided to give away real turkeys.
