Basically the title. I made waffles on Sunday and grabbed the remainder of my already opened and partially consumed package of Morning Star sausages and ended up reading the ingredients. Discovered they have milk and egg in them... Lesson learned again that plant-based doesn't mean vegan. So now I am shopping around. I'm sad because they were cheaper than others and tasted good.

So what are your gotos for breakfast sausage-substitutes?

PS: I did see an article that they are in the process of going full vegan but that was from a few years ago.

Edit: Thanks for recs so far. I'm gonna go look at the ingreds of my other Morning Star stuff because now I'm scared lol

Recently discovered this with the non-vegan cheese "soy loaf" I was using. I thought I finally found a vegan cheese that melted almost exactly like cheese and tasted pretty good and wasn't that expensive. But it's got casein and it's just listed as "casein" so it's not some plant-based alternative as far as I can tell, but from milk. I re-doubled my efforts to read ingredients of everything after that. Should probably get in the habit of re-reading ingredients on stuff in case they add stuff back in too.

I recall hearing about this product. It sounds like they were just trying to ride the "plant-based" trend. I think I heard of another that was soy with added whey or some shit.

I bought an almond cheese once that I didn't realize had casein in it until I had already eaten most of it.
