Hell yeah. I love beans, eat them nearly everyday, and preach how awesome they are.
Maybe I should join the cult 😅
In a local shop, they have these massive jars of pre-cooked white beans, which are really great. I keep them in the fridge and when a meal could do with a bit more sustenance, I just scoop a few spoonfuls into there.
Works really well for curries and tomato sauce, but honestly, I’d have trouble naming a meal where it doesn’t fit (assuming that meal doesn’t already have a ton of protein). Yesterday, I did the beans on toast thing by basically just chucking beans on toast, seasoning them and then microwaving the lot. For an extremely lazy meal, that was actually quite decent.
Sous vide is mainly used for meats but you can do some neat things with it and beans. I’ve had lentils come outv with an almost caviar texture/feel.
Sous vide vegetables are underrated in general. It can intensify the flavor of the natural vegetable itself or the seasonings you’ve added, without sacrificing texture or color.
The first mention of their name is “Legumati” and the rest is “Leguminati”. I’m guessing the first one is an error.
Yeah, ima keep eating steak.
EDIT: Spelling
“Yes the planet got destroyed, but one beautiful moment we had a really nice dinner”
How do you spot a meatflake? Don’t worry, he’ll tell you! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Found the vegan in the room!
Oh I meant carnist.
How do you know if someone abuses animals? Don’t worry, they tell you, and tell you, and tell you, and tell you…
there’s something about food that always gets a strong reaction. you tell people to drive less, recycle, shop differently, its whatever, so why are people so defensive about changing what they eat?
People are really weird about food. Like, really fucking weird.
I cook food for small groups of people (2-10 at a time) and have to find ways to make sure they’re all happy while not having to cook something different for each person. Sometimes it’s really hard with people’s hangups about food.
I used to be a really picky eater, but through just growing up and naturally changing, and also putting in a decent amount of effort to force myself to like foods that I previously didn’t, I now have a very broad palate and like most foods. It’s very frustrating to me when I have to work around people who eat like toddlers.
And I’m not talking about allergies or dietary restrictions. Only preferences.
Because taste is one of out most basic human senses. Imagine if u told people that they had to wear contact lenses to make the whole world just different shades of beige.
Vegan food tastes great. Y’all just won’t try any green eggs and ham.
Ive tried the green eggs and ham and they dont compare to the real thing. The texture is wrong. The nutrition profile is different. The flavours are a cheap approximation (like vanillin approximating vanilla). The fat distribution is wrong.
And it feels artificial and processed with 1000 additives and fillers.
And u to can have all this for double the price of a good ol slab of real cow.
then dont eat the artificial stuff. i eat the legumes themselves and they’re wonderful.
Mind you, sometimes the vegan stuff is just plain superior to the original. I won’t buy regular cream anymore; the vegan stuff I can get tastes better and has a much longer shelf life. Then again, I’ve never seen vegan “cheese” with a flavor other than “rubbery beige rectangle”. It’s very product dependent.
We’re not talking about fake meat and other products designed to exploit people’s stupidity and childish unwillingness to try new things. This article doesn’t mention them once, that’s entirely your own projection.
We’re talking about FOOD. Try some sometime. Many or most of your favourite things to eat are vegan. You’ve been eating them all your life. You eat them at every meal. You like them when the word “vegan” isn’t in your munted brain, you’re just triggered.
You’re Australian, right? Try the Bird’s Eye sweet chili “chicken” tenders.

Keep eating your stake in what?
No, it’s a vampire proclaiming their toughness. Like: Keep coming hunters, ima eat stake night after night.
Steak and other snacks?
A cheese toasty and maybe a piece of fruit cos u need vitamin c.
