My false-meat empanadas are the best.

Try using 50/50 minced meat/TVP and you won't notice the difference. I don't know how it behaves when doing meatballs or hamburguers, it probably crumbles if you don't add something else, but idk.

    Worldwide, 80% of soy is fed to livestock. The rest is mostly soybean oil. Soy isn't an issue because of specialty vegan products.

      Oh yeah I know that.

      Its just the idea that you are saving animals by participating in factory farms is a bit absurd. Soy and corn harvesting leads to massive wild life death. Along with all the habitat destroyed to keep it going.

      I don't eat beef or soy and really only eat local corn grown on small plots.

        Again, soy consumption, and the many negatives associated with it, is fueled almost entirely by the growing demand for meat. Not direct human consumption. We could sustainably provide soy for direct human consumption.
