Hey you should absolutely try eating Indian (and the dozens and dozens of similarly regional food) and look/ask for the vegan options. It's some of the best vegan food you can get at regular take out places. If you're worried about cross contamination just ask nicely or check out reviews to find places that accommodate that
I shouldn't have worked at every vegan place in town. Staff meals make you permanently sick of any place no matter how good.
Yum people that know how to cook vegan can make some stellar stuff, there was this amazing restaurant in Asheville that put out some great vegan food but also helped feed homeless folks
I made a tofu scramble a few weeks ago and it was soooo goooood. went in a breakfast burrito bowl 🤤
Tangentially related question for people familiar with tofu: The only store I know of that sells tofu near me just keeps it on a regular room-temperature shelf. Shouldn't it be kept in a cold area? I'm worried that stuff's not even safe to eat.
Asian market I prefer to buy from has fresh stuff refrigerated, and some carton stuff on unrefrigerated shelves, so I assume some of them are cooked or treated in a way to make them shelf-stable.
So it's relatively safe anyway?
It's not a very often used food item in my country, so I was kinda worried they just stored it in an unhealthy way out of ignorance.
there's shelf-stable tofu and some that needs cooling, the supermarket near me has both, but I have no idea what the difference is
