That would be wonderful, except the cheese plate from Trader Joe's that contained the swiss cheese has been consumed in its entirety. Plus, I don't want it to taste worse, I want it to taste better. Actually, the meatless meatballs aren't all that bad, they just don't taste like real meatballs (which taste about 47% better, because meat). I heated them up with crushed tomatoes and various spices and a little olive oil, some broccoli and some asparagus, then threw some mozzarella on top. It stopped me from being hungry, and I have several more servings left to see if I will live, and if I will find merit in them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago there was a restaurant in the next town over, I had to drive by it all the time. The name of the restaurant was 'Black Angus', lots of beefiness within. Anyway, the letters of the restaurant sign were lit up individually from inside. The sign at night looked ok until the 'G' light burned out. As you drove by at night, from a distance all you saw was "Black Anus". I laughed and laughed and laughed, because that is funny. It was that way for more than a month. 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is weird hearing @Randomguy use the meatless meatballs term. He's been vehement in the past sticking with his old timey "milk" definitions, so not sure what got into him this time????

I find the meatless ones tend to be smaller, and eventually break down into the sauce if simmered long enough. Hmm, I didn’t get these from TJ’s, some Amazon grocery thing. I will try the TJ’s ones next. I went to Trader Joe’s last night and got eggs, butter, ground beef, pickle flavored chips, bacon, beans, jarred Alfredo sauce, and vegan pasta bolognese, which I haven’t had yet. The chips were awesome, btw. As far as the vegan stuff, I generally only care if something tastes good. I do have a rule that, whenever I go grocery shopping, I have to buy one item I never have bought before. I have found some clunkers doing that, but have also found some great things, too. It helps me keep an open mind about food, you see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted May 20, 2021 Share #34 Posted May 20, 2021 One cannot use the term Bolognese and vegan in the same sentence except for instances like, “I cannot eat Bolognese sauce as I am a vegan.” Bolognese sauce is made with meat. A sauce made with a meat substitute is not a Bolognese sauce, it is an abomination. meatless balls are not “meatballs” they are just balls. “I had meatless meatballs with pasta” is wrong. “I had balls with my pasta.” Is correcter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
