100% agree. The imitation methods used in all of the vegan "meat" products just are not near good enough. My ex made me try a bunch, they varied from a little off to just plain gross. Even though I approached each one with an open mind, not a single one was enjoyable. It was actually really hard to keep an open mind after a while, having been either disappointed or disgusted 100% of the time in the past.

However, chickpea patties? Delicious. Black bean burgers? They're usually pretty decent too. There was one veggie burger we tried that had portobello mushrooms as the main ingredient, and it was the most delicious veggie burger I've ever had, hands down. It was so savory and juicy, and the texture was excellent.

I just wish these companies would just focus on plant based products with great taste as their main goal rather than trying to imitate meat, because they're just so astonishingly terrible at it.

You mean to tell me that evangelicals, a group best known for their fanatical and unwavering devotion to wealthy, narcissistic, morally bankrupt conmen — a group which blindly and eagerly denounces throughly explored proven facts and truths in order to justify a reality which these despicable leaders so desperately need them to believe to keep the donations flowing in... Love Trump? Of all people?

My god, this might just be the story of the century

Exactly my thoughts. They saw a drop in traffic this month after the API changes killed 3rd party apps and just want to boost this month's numbers so it doesn't hurt their valuation and upcoming IPO further.

I wrote a comment outlining my very specific and somewhat surprising immigration situation, and someone asked me if I would mind answering some questions because they were by chance writing an article about people who fit my exact situation.

I gladly would have answered whatever questions they had, but they asked me via that dumb fucking chat function, so I only saw a year after they sent me the message.
