They may as well call it Swan, Dodo or Teradactyl.........as there's no meat involved................I just don't understand why if people want to eat quorn ( and I have no objections at all) but why call it a "meat" and one that they don't eat anyway, just to appease their pallets

But its free range Quorn

Meat free they are saying, Neil, so no meat.
Looks like Chicken, Tastes like Chicken ????
Trading Standards should be reading the small print.
No Horse in a Beefburger so no Chicken in a meat free
meal.

I prefer food of the foie gras, the frogs and the snails.

Roquefort

Profiterroles

Bordeaux

All this is natural

Sacré bleu!
I wonder what unpleasant chemicals have been smashed together to give us these tasty meat-free treats? And why do you need a farm (Morning Star) to produce veggie bacon? I'm with Jean-Pierre on this - although I draw the line just short of snails................

Profiteroles are natural? In which part of France would that be, J-P - and do you have special dogs to sniff them out?

I bought a six pack of baked beans from co-op (famous brand) and opened two and found not a single bean, just tomato sauce. Co-op wouldnt believe me, said I had taken the beans out....so I insisted they opened the others, all were fine ...til the last one(phew) that had about 20 beans in.

So that makes how many Quorns to an acre.
We will make a fortune here in OZ grazing Quorns

Colin Bishop · « **Reply #11 on:** December 07, 2014, 07:38:30 pm »

Are they UniQuorns?

Guy Bagley · « **Reply #12 on:** December 07, 2014, 07:46:28 pm »

I see it now,
Australia rights its balance of payments, as UniQuorn exports exceed all imports $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

What is the point?, Money, money money, that is why ABBA is still popular in OZ

I have opened several cans of cat food, to find a whole tin of gravy, the cats were not at all chuffed with this.

Dave

To eat healthily you should not go to the hypermarkets of stores.
It is necessary to cultivate its garden, to make its products, to make its soup, to make its cooking , to buy at youngs producer
When I go in your country I do not know what to eat, everything is under plastic..................
You are responsible for it, and now he is too late for you. You are condemned to eat this kind of thing.

I have a lot of English which(who) live near me, all sound come for the way of living here.

In two months we go with them and from other friends to make an English day.
It is them who treat us (I adore their cakes)
