Quorn products



aside from price how'd it taste? what are the morningstar burgers made of? i'm leery of soy.

so far so good, thanks for asking! I'm shopping mostly at a really nice place called the Queens Health market or something like that, lots of soups, noodles etc there makes cooking convenient.

i think dh has gotten over it and moved on yay! he's supportive and makes food for both of us but puts meat in his meals like meatballs or something. we're both learning to adjust

The taste is not bad at all. I LOVE their meatballs! So did Scott, who actually thought they were turkey balls . He now requests I use them when I make spaghetti & 'meatballs'!

I'm not sure where you live but Whole Foods & Fairway are flippin fantastic grocery stores. The selection for veggies is drool-inducing .

Morningstar products main ingredient is either soy or a soy byproduct (veggie protein).

Great to hear your dh is making the transition easier for you .

As I've said before, you can always FM me with ? or .

I have never tried Quorn, but I have been a vegetarian for almost two years. When I started it I wasnt sure if I was really going to be able to do it or not, but I was able to, and now cannot ever think of going back!
good luck ladies!

i meant to update this; i did eat it (the gruyere patty) and YES it was awesome!!!!!

They're really good, I agree. I LIVED on Quorn when I lived in London for a year. I have to tell you, though, the Boca chick'n patties are also really, really delicious and usually easier to find. They don't make the fancy stuff like the gruyere though (was that good? I've been afraid to try it).
