It tastes exactly like Mcdonald's if not better, but it's about $30 for one person which is a little crazy Definitely check out the restaurants on 16th & Valencia in the Mission - literally every place has multiple vegan options even if it's not explicitly a vegan restaurant I see that this is where shizen is. But we already frequent it's sister restaurant, Tane Izakya. But looked up the menu on that Indochine Vegan place and it looks insane. Gotta go get me some of that shizen is amazing indochine is so fuckin good and a lil more affordable joyride pizza is also on that block and they do vegan cheese,pepp, sasuage and chicken

Maybe yall can give me some advice.
I wen't pescatarian, or whatever people label use, about a year ago. No meat but seafood, eggs, and dairy I still eat. As far as dairy, it’s basically only when it’s an ingredient or if it’s on a sandwich. I’m highly allergic to tree nuts so even trying to go vegan would be tough given how heavily nuts are used.
I wen't to a bagel shop yesterday morning and very nearly ordered a baconeggandcheese(cuz yes, in NY, it’s one word). I haven’t had a one since I stopped eating meat, and it’s been on my mind since then. Straight up feels like a relapse brewing lmao
Any of you still have that happen, and then feel like you want to make an exception for it but feel guilty about maybe doing so? I miss baconeggsndcheese so fucking bad. Any of yall have something that you just can’t let go of eating? There simply doesn’t exist a suitable replacement to bacon in an egg sandwich, and you can’t make a better one at home even if there was.

There simply doesn’t exist a suitable replacement to bacon in an egg sandwich, and you can’t make a better one at home even if there was. Not in a while, but there were definitely some rough cravings in my first couple years. I’m mostly okay with substitutes, but stuff like legit carne asada or calamari don’t really have a good replacement. I would just make sure to eat a lot at home before going anywhere so I wouldn’t have an excuse to stop and get food

Things I miss: - crab Rangoon (I was eating these a lot as a vegetarian because I had no idea that imitation crab was actually fish lol) - roast beef sandwiches - eyetalian subs - prime rib - lamb chops - prosciutto - chicken McNuggets (these are the reason I wen't vegetarian because I literally could not stop eating these)
That being said, I have never had a desire to eat meat once giving it up thankfully because my disordered eating is pretty bad and I don’t know that I would have the willpower to overcome those desires. Food aversions are a blessing and a curse I suppose.

Has Board ever dined with Street Beet in Detroit? Pop-up of various fast food menus with a fresh vegan twist 🤤
Taco Bell = Taco Hell, McDonald's = McDaddy's, Pizza Hut = Pizza Slut 😈 They ran a Little Caesars menu called "Lil Sleezers" and got hit with a c&d from the evil corporation. Then they did an epic clapback pop-up called "Lil Babies." Now they operate out of Third Street bar. Highly recommended!

ngl been having some jaded thoughts/cravings lately not sure why. but i’ve been watching parts unknown while hitting the stationary bike and man there was a scene where they just grab a hog and shoot it in the head point blank and was just kinda horrified/disgusted by how normal that is so that fixed me right up
the hardest thing for me is that i kinda live in the middle of nowhere so easy takeout/delivery in any capacity is not much of an option

Now and then I'll get those random nostalgia cravings.
Jack in the box - sourdough jack w/ curly fries, tacos McDonalds - 2 cheeseburger meal that I used to always get in high school La Costa (Mexican spot down the street) - carne asada burrito, carne asada tacos
Those are like the only things that pop in my mind when doing the whole "what would you get if you wen't back for one day" thing lol.
I was always trash hahaha

Thin Lizzy Gulag Graduate search this thread for "BIL bacon" as someone who worked at a deli and has made and/or eaten literally thousands of BECs in my youth, i would definitely say it's a worthy substitute that you can make at home also if you're out and about in BK try ATM vegan deli on dekalb and bedford, their shit is very very close

vt fell off bigtime imo products shrank and declined in quality, prices wen't up ice cream is good tho 100% true. The stuff they ship to grind core house tastes stale or freezer burned.

Also the Oscar Mayer vegan dog is incredible. Beats the impossible dog, field roast, uptown, and lite life. It’s only competition is the ikea plant dog.

There’s just something about the way a good bec is made in a deli that can’t be replicated at home. Maybe it’s the flat top, maybe its the whole experience, maybe it’s the government cheese and the rolls baked by the roaches in hunts point…but one at home just never hits the way even a middle of the road one does from a deli/bodega. Why can’t bacon for egg sandwiches come from a fish 😭

I was a champs die hard, but Ro's fucking sucks. The food is overpriced and under seasoned. Also every time I've been I'm always seated across from the big ass Harriet Tubman portrait grilling me while I eat an unseasoned waffle.

imma hang in bk for a few days for the cold world gig looking forward to hittin some of these spots, have only been to champs (rip) Dreamery for ice cream (soft serve). Xi'an Famous Foods has vegan Biang Biang noodles. Hartbreakers has a good vegan chicken sandwich. Bunna for Ethiopoian, it's absolutely delicious. JaJaJa for mexican fusion. Seitan's helper for killer sandwiches. If you head into manhattan, orchard grocer's BLT or eyetalian combo is where it's at.

King shit. It’s definitely the seasoning or something. Years of dubious cleaning cooking all manner $5 sandwiches, eggs, halal food, and whatever else does something. Maybe it’s the bodega cat dandruff, or the spit from the annoying drunk who comes in every day asking for loosies, or the vibrations from middle eastern jams, but a hot sandwich from a bodega is just different. Hell, they even make turkey bacon or beef bacon slap. If I still drank there’s zero chance I could resist.

You also don’t need to double them up or cut them Dip sheet in water. Shake off excess. Dip in marinade. Drop in hot pan. It’ll start to bubble and become soft pretty much instantly. Use tongs to kinda smush/fold it into a bacon shape so it has creases n whatnot. Flip it until you get to your desired cooked bacon level. Remove from pan onto paper towel Make a BLaT
