Eating Amy's is MUCH healthier than the "real" stuff. Amy's uses organic ingredients and has a lot of Quinoa in it. That's good right there! Processed is fine as long as it is processed properly with the healthy things of the Earth we're meant to eat that build us up! I tend to avoid some brands that use heaps and heaps of crazy ingredients like Morningstar Farms, but Boca, some Gardenburger, and especially Gardein as well as some Trader Joe's and Whole Foods brands are outstanding. Amy's is one of the best!
Thank you, gurney! Amy's does make really good stuff. We love her refried black beans that I use to make bean and cheese enchiladas. :) We also use her salsa dip. :) We just went back to using some boca - my husband likes the spicy chicken sandwhich and the boys like the burgers, but we don't use it on a regular basis. But I found they like Amy's better! So, that's good enough for me. :)

Actually we can't sustain this animal product consumption, Knee-V! We're allowing the Amazon rainforest to be cut down, cleared, burned, and destroyed in order to make room for cattle that is mostly sent to, you guessed it, the good ole U S of A! This country has polluted millions of acres of vegetables, estuaries, wetlands, and other habitats with nasty farm run-off. We've destroyed so much soil and we're raping our environment. Vegetarianism isn't the problem.

I'm not suggesting that we should each eat pounds of meat every day. But when we *do* eat meat, it should be peeled from animal bone, not harvested from a plant.

I see that redneck bumper sticker all over my area. I live in a part of California dominated by "good ole' boys" for sure. I just wonder if most people knew or saw how these "tasty animals" were slaughtered, the inhumane practices, the genetic meddling in them, and the cruelty, I wonder if we'd be so quick to make fun of people who prefer not to play a part in it?

Go to Target or Super Target and try "Gardein" products. I like them MUCH better than Boca. My wife and kids and best friend love 'em, too!

Here in MS redneckery is the norm. :D

What's spooky is that I even worry about what wild game is eating with all the GMO stuff probably growing in some fields.

Well, never actually saw on a bumper sticker. Saw it quoted once & ran with it! I'm SURE its so prevalent in your area, for the expressed purpose of annoying you.

In all my time in California (All my life - 2.5 Years) and over 800K Miles driven, I've never seen that Bumper sticker.

I see nothing wrong in preferring plant to animal

I think he is saying that if we are gonna eat meat, it should be meat. not plants tressed or made to pass as meat. if we prefer plants, go hardcore on the plants.
