hehe as a vegetarian I guess I am a little… bias towards faux-meat problems. I just ate 2 grilled veggie dogs, they weren’t that great but they were reminiscent of my hot dog days (the dark years.. hehe) I will have to try these.

I am impressed that you brought up glory holes during a food review. But not surprised.

I’ve had those before; they’re delicious. Mostly because of the barbecue sauce. Also unlike veggie burgers, they actually kind of resemble meat!

@DHL: When I say Sexy, you say Marvo. Sexy! Marvo! @skibs: Yeah, I was surprised by the amount of sugar in this product, but I guess if it makes the soy patty taste better than so be it. @Bear Silber: G Rating? TIB? Those two shouldn't be in the same sentence, hence my separating of them into individual questions instead of one question. @theskinnyplate: purchased it by the truckload, but let me know before you do so that I can buy stock in MorningStar Farms. @amanda: Oh dear lord, you just brought back my bad memories of their fake bacon. @Ryan: With summer time coming up, you should have a barbecue which will help you get rid of those MorningStar Farms veggie dogs real quick. @Kay I. Emm: I'm positive your six-year-old will not notice that it's not meat, unless I tell him it's not meat. @Gregory Ng: The Frozen Food Master: I didn't notice that Boca-like aftertaste of the soy protein like you did. When I purchase these again, I'll try to notice it, but I guess I was distracted by how surprisingly good these were. @Chuck: I pondered about whether or not I was going to include a glory hole reference, but I decided it wouldn't be a TIB review without it. @Bunny: That sounds really good right now. It sure beats the peanut butter toast I'm eating right now. @Neil the hammer: So I take it you also don't like dildos.

I hate fake meat like fake people be yourself but dont be a phoney. I remember when I threw a box of jello pudding at my sister when I was a kid. The pudding broke though a new huge 3 pane window my mom and dad just had put in. My sister said she would cover for me and say it just cracked and fell apart. As soon as my dad came home she went running to him and said He did it dad he threw pudding at me.

THAT IS ALL

I love these. The BBQ sauce is thick and tasty, the texture is just like real meat riblets. I make mine with a side a steamed veggies and mashed/baked potatoes.

I’ve never tried a veggie burger but these sound somewhat tasty. But I think this REVIEW is going to give me nightmares after that public bathroom reference.

Great review Marvo. Completely agree. Did you notice the Boco-like aftertaste of the soy protein?

P.S. I worked at McDonalds in the early 90′s when I was in high school and making McRibs was THE Worst part of the job but eating them….well I happen to love eating them. I would liek to see what happens to your dreams when you dont eat them right before you go to bed.

I should remember not to read food reviews when there are rumbys in my tumby. These sound divine! I wonder if I can fool my carnivorous 6-year old with these? He still thinks Quorn Nuggets are chicken so thank God for childhood illiteracy.

The only Morningstar Farms product I’ve had is the Chikn Patties and they are pretty great…tastes like chicken. I have some Morningstar Farms Veggie Dogs that have been sitting in my freezer for about 4 months….What was I thinking when I got those? Still can’t get myself to crack them open. Between this review and the FFM Greg at Freezerburns high praise of this product, I’m definitely going to give it a shot.

I like BOCA for a brands of fake meat. Morning Star is either a hit or a miss on their products. I only eat soy for the lower calories. I will however enjoy a good juicy meaty steak on occasions.

You make me wanna try this. I have yet to find a good tasting fake meat.

@skibs – I know, right? I hate that about certain products. It seems like whenever they have a healthier option (low-fat, non-fat, low sodium, etc.) they usually substitute something else in it’s place that is just as unhealthy but of course they market the other facts.

@Marvo – This thing is getting more raves than I expected. I’ve got to try it now. I know you’ve seen it but here’s a video review of it from the Frozen Food Master:

P.S. I wonder how a G rated TIB review would sound…maybe I’ll make like a Garfield Without Garfield thing for one of yours :P

I think I’ll stick with B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
That’s a lot of sugar!
