I’ve eaten chicken, turkey, sheep, cow, pig, duck, rabbit, snail, deer and horse. It’s a bit more than 3, and that’s just the general category (for example, counting boars and pigs as only one type) and only land animals. If we list each fish species, crabs, squids, calamari…

I resent that. I eat more than 3 species of animals.

capitalism does not beget a wide range of meat for the average household. people eat "the same 3 dead animals" because it's what's affordable and even that's becoming less and less true

Sorry, I'm trying. Honestly. I'm looking for vegan and vegetarian recipes and while it usually tastes "fine", it's mostly just "meh".

I don't get the hype for things like lentils or quinoa either. Both are "meh" at best.

So far, I'm unable to find meat-free recipes that truly satisfy me.

And no, I'm not a bad cook.

Tell me your reasonably priced vegan and vegetarian recipes that little children will eat, too. Serious request.

As a fellow omnivore trying to eat more vegan/vegetarian recipes, I think rainbow plant life on YouTube has the best recipes that I've tried. If you've read Salt Fat Acid Heat, most/all of her recipes are based on that technique/ideology. Her red lentil curry is really good and I make a double batch about once every other month to keep in the freezer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHRyfEbhFFU

I live with people that don't like coconut milk so I just use a mixture of heavy cream and milk. I also sub half of the red lentils for brown lentils for extra fiber.

Most people are going to say beef, chicken, and pork.

Yet goat is the most popular meat worldwide. And I'm good with that, those weird-eyed hellspawn need to die.

To be fair, one of those three animals basically perfected it's flavor to the point where everything else tastes just like it.

Hahahaha, what a funny meme here on c/memes. I'm literally laughing my ass off.

Find me a plant that tastes like a nice hamburger and I'm sold.

Plant-based meat has been a thing for a hot minute so I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make

edit: for chicken nugget enjoyers, I like the morningstar farms equivalent. Pop in the toaster oven/air fryer, coat in sweet & sour or orange sauce, put on a bed of rice, + sprinkle some sesame seeds on top. ooh that shit's so good

Almost correct. It's 6 dead animals in my case actually

[–] Kushia@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I love taste.

It's far easier to slap a chook in the oven and end up with something delicious than what I've been able to figure out that's only plant based.
