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.

    Ah yeah.

    I eat local pork mostly. I don't touch beef die to my dislike of ranching practices.

    Also have my own farm. Also avoid soy due to gmo and estrogen.

      you're thinking of phytoestrogens, and there isn't any conclusive scientific evidence that they act like estrogen in your body. milk (and meat too iirc) have actual estrogen, which does actually affect you

        Yeah I mean the main reason I don't eat soy is becuase I don't like factory farming.

            To be honest. That's a myth.

            If you actually care about any of this more than just not wanting blood on your hands you'll start supporting local small farms through csa etc. You'll get more food than you know what to do with. Go to a farmers market. Compare prices to the grocery stores. They tend to be pretty close.

            If your city dweller that just wants to feel good about not having death on their hands than keep living in your dream world that is blood free soy. Also if it's organic soy its going to be grown with animal byproducts that come most likely from factory fa operations. If it's not than it's gmo trash petro fertilizers that's bad for the world in general.

                1. Gmos are bad becuase they are only used to increase profits and get farmers hooked on one source

                Could they be better to let's say make things grow with ess water. Yes. But they went for $$$. That's why the field is dying.

                Sorry I have multiple people responding to me hard to keep it straight. I ships Probably get back to work instead of bickering online
