    i don’t know who hurt that person, but I feel like food innovation is at an all-time high. Constantly I see new stuff being experimented on and new combinations of food items. plant-based/vegan popularity has really elevated those food innovations as well, with ever more plants being used to make new foods. Just yesterday I made myself a vegan omelet with vegan cheese. And it was amazing.

      I tried vegan cheese at a food show recently. It tasted more like cheese than cheese does!

      I try to incorporate a couple of plant-based meals every week and it’s getting easier to make something good every time.

        You don’t happen to know which one it was, do you? We vegans are always on the hunt. Although tbh, I don’t miss the “sour, milky” taste. I find it very weird…

          Sorry, no. I know it was a new product, but I was only curious to try it. I wasn’t planning to buy it, so I didn’t note the brand.

      Definitely. Everyone wants to make the next viral food thing on TikTok. A lot of it might be dumb, but by the time it filters out of TikTok and onto other platforms, it’s usually the best stuff.
