    Wait beans aren't vegan???

    Jackfruit tastes nice but I can already imagine the disappointment using it in a taco.

    Yeah, the origin of beans is they genetically spliced a pea with a pig.

    Yeah, true enough. Dunno if it's retail, but find some Impossible ground "meat" or at a burger place. Amazing that it tastes like meat, purely vegan though.

    yes, beans are vegan, why play with plants to make it look and "taste" like meat. Tried "beyond meat", and heard "impossible" is even better, but what is the point when these burgs have as much sat fat as cow, just eat cow! I am doing this for health, fyi.

    The 2019 Impossible (limited release now, wide in March) has 30% less saturated fat that the old recipe.

    Our whole family went pescatarian 1.5 years ago for health reasons (and American food distribution reasons). 9yo's migraines disappeared. 14yo's autistic behaviors improved. And the wife & I feel so much better.
