Tofurkey
My pescetarian spouse surprised me with a Tofurkey last night for an early Thanksgiving. Apparently these things actually exist. I thought it was just a bad sitcom joke. Shockingly , it wasn’t bad. Not a turkey by any means, but more edible than most tofu-based products. The texture was off, but the flavor was plausible: not as good as a real turkey but better than the prepackaged, extruded “turkey breast” a lot of restaurants try to pawn off as fresh turkey. I suspect an excessive amount of wheat gluten and strange chemicals.

Never had the gumption to try one, but as a carnivore it still sounds better than the turbaconducken I’ve seen floating about.
