Anyone just gnaw on a package of tofurky and call it a meal?

[u/fupapack]

320kcal and 41g protein, I'll usually pair it with a red bell pepper and handful of cherry tomatoes. Sometimes you just aren't in the mood to cook!

[u/Academic-Hat389]

that’s honestly brilliant-i just wish it was cheaper 😭

[u/SalsaAddict → u/Academic-Hat389]

Same! I only do this when I find them for cheap at Grocery Outlet, which isn’t nearly as often as I’d like 😢

[u/fupapack → u/Academic-Hat389]

I remember when they used to be like $2.99 😭

[u/anarchisttraveler → u/fupapack]

At my local grocery, I wait until they go on sale for $3.29 and then buy like five or six to have on hand.

[u/injury_minded]

i have demolished entire packages of the simple truth black forest ham in the middle of the night with my bare hands. i am not to be trusted around faux lunch meat

[u/UHElle → u/injury_minded]

Oh man, I just tried it on Sunday after having it in my crisper for months and it was so good I went out and bought another packet today and had another ham sammich for dinner. I think it’s up there with the peppered tofurky for me for sure.

[u/fupapack → u/injury_minded]

I have never seen this product before how does it compare to Tofurky ham?

[u/Kwershal → u/fupapack]

it has way less of the "fake" soy-y flavor tofurky has it's honestly amazing (kroger brand)

[u/Mydogthinksimskinny]

Yep lmao

[u/anarchisttraveler → u/Mydogthinksimskinny]

I like to add some tomato and pickle but absotutely

[u/aboringusername]

I love all of the tofurky products. My favorite little snack is a couple slices of the ham style with a bit of garlic hummus on a wasa cracker. Also a fan of the field roast deli slices, especially the mushroom and balsamic.

[u/RecycledGum]

Yes, dipped in bitchin sauce. Rip sodium intake.

[u/PrizeDisplay192]

Yup!!

[u/hgielatan]

I'd get a whole pack on a pubsub

[u/soupyloopz]

i just found some packs of these for sale at my local kroger for $1.50, so yep! definitely going to be tomorrow's lunch.

[u/kihtay]

Put it on ritz crackers. You’re welcome 🤤

[u/Confident-Ruin-4111]

Wrap them around pickles and call it a meal all the time.

[u/2shotsofpatron]

The turky kind is my Stand In The Open Fridge Door snack

[u/nocleverusername-]

Too damn salty.

[u/solilobee → u/nocleverusername-]

i like to pair tofurky with some veganaise. the great neutralizer

[u/glorieuse]

Absolutely. Peak sodium.

[u/Dizzy-Violinist-1772]

Just watch your sodium for the rest of the day and you’ve got yourself a great idea

[u/extraodi]

Yeah, I’ve done that before lol.

[u/leitmot]

My lazy protein is mock duck right out the can.

[u/Brief_Cauliflower399]

I bring packages of this exact kind on long car trips to eat instead of protein bars from gas stations. Sure, it’s better if you do something with it, but I can totally raw dog my way through the whole package over the course of a drive.

[u/Miserable-Bag959 → u/Brief_Cauliflower399]

Raw Dog … gets me every time 😂

[u/joonduh]

When i have no energy I eat a block of cold tofu with soy sauce and cayenne pepper.

[u/punishments]

Of course I know them. They are me.

[u/1friendswithsalad]

Yes I just gnaw through the big chonk. So good.

[u/yuletide]

If you get bored of it cold just toast it or throw in a skillet

[u/RecycleTheWorld]

Yes. Hah

[u/izziishigh]

absolutely

[u/TheSpanishMystic]

I have done that 🫣 it's so good! How can a girl like me resist that protein?

[u/Mountain_Parking_883]

lowkey yeah

[u/_pm_me_your_biceps_]

I absolutely do, lmao. Best lazy meal at work

[u/Economy-Rate8298]

this is a go to for me when I am traveling for work. Great with an apple for an easy meal and much cheaper/more sustaining than attempting to veganize some sad hotel restaurant menu

[u/fupapack → u/Economy-Rate8298]

Yes! In my old job I traveled for work often. Almonds and V8 ar the gas stations, hummus and a bag of baby carrots. Tofurky bricks...

[u/Sea_Bridge_9861]

yessss

[u/frippilin]

Really wish they’d change the packaging though. Cardboard you have to recycle AND un-reusable plastic bag.

[u/oscarwildeflower]

YES

[u/Ariella222]

I gotta have something with it, but a few pieces rolled up with a piece of violife is a great quick snack

[u/thatgirlallie]

All the time :D

[u/nervous_veggie]

Quorn vegan ham for me.

[u/rahcled]

God I miss this so much. It was in Australia for a hot minute and now we don’t have any good vegan deli meat

[u/howwonderful]

With a good sauce and a side, you’ve got yourself a solid girl dinner right there

[u/ZazaLovesPants]

Roll it up with a slice of Violife cheez and you got yourself a lil appetizer

[u/ov3rcastxkid]

i miss u tofurkeyyyy ( i’m allergic to wheat and semi-allergic to soy now :( )

used to make little tofurkey & arugula rolls. always delicious.

[u/fupapack → u/ov3rcastxkid]

Love arugula. Have you tried making your own meat with lentils and peas protein?

[u/ov3rcastxkid → u/fupapack]

never considered it !! i’ll have to look up recipes :)

(wheat allergy has been ~15 months, and soy ~3 months, so i’m new to it. and stubborn so i was relying on benadryl for a while.)

[u/fupapack → u/ov3rcastxkid]

I didn't know if you can handle soy sauce but just saw these https://vegan-america.com/products/roasted-turky?variant=47655082295534&fbclid=PAT01DUARzSNhleHRuA2FlbQIxMABzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA81NjcwNjczNDMzNTI0MjcAAaf2uPaBqVeBWsV3TYf2fiMH99MDEDGqFJJjNE1EQw-iwqKB4gWFV9-hXjs7JQ_aem_T1wwpBrL-1N6t6Y_ZNZQMA

[u/ov3rcastxkid → u/fupapack]

i’ll have to try if i get the chance !! (money haha). i can do soy sauce, i just can’t do stuff like bread or the full brick of tofu anymore :/ (i am lazy & cheap and miss being able to eat a full brick of baked tofu for my primary meal)

[u/sunflowrs-n-selflove]

Try smoked tofu, it's even better imo!

[u/Miserable-Bag959 → u/sunflowrs-n-selflove]

Smoked tofu… Is that something that you create at home or can you buy it smoked? That sounds amazing! The closest decent tofu I’ve had Out is from “crazy bowls & wraps” their grilled tofu with the little grill marks on it. I love it! I fell in love 🥰 with this place when I found out you could order tofu and steamed broccoli 🥦 from a CB&W drive-through window!!
