  • Never seen this before, is it in the fridge?

    • Frozen. I've seen it on the top shelf above the Quorn.

    No offence to OP but I for one and tired of the deceptive practices being used to market fake meat. Imagine the outrage if meat producers used the same tactics to masquerade as vegetarian/vegan.

    I would like to see fake meat deals disclosed in the title. Again, no offence to OP. It was in the description but the title does not truly indicate what is being sold.

    Thanks
    💐

      It's mince. Mince doesn't mean meat. Are you going to be outraged the next time a fruit mince deal comes online?

        Sure.. but it's called classic mince.

        • +5

          Imagine mistakenly getting it and enjoying it only to notice later that my penis has shrivelled up and turned into a mangina. This is why it needs all capital letters that it is hippy mince.

        • The title is exactly what the product is called. If you have so much time, go protest outside their factory.

    • +2

      I've always found it incredibly bizarre how threatened by fake meat so many people get.

      If you can find a market for fake vegetables made out of meat then by all means go ahead. I think you know exactly how stupid and irrational that would be though…

      • It's calling it for what it is. Topic needs to reflect the actual nature of the product.

        If it had veggie mince in the title then I certainly wouldn't have clicked on it.

        • I actually agree with you that it would be handy to put vegan in the title, it's your bizarre rant that I found weird.

    looks quite tasty

    For fake mince meat?

    Please outline in topic that it's veggie mince or something to that nature.

    • Oh great, now there's two of you. The world was already messed up enough as it was…

        Welcome to the real world, with real people.

        Feel nice from not living under a rock all this time hey?

          Huh? But yes, it was nice living under a rock and not knowing that JV had inspired an apprentice!

          Though I can see why you're just an apprentice, you really haven't mastered the use of bold yet!

        That's what the 'Hide' button is for. ;)

  • How does it sizzle?

    • dpends how much oil and temperature, you casn make most organic matter sizze with enough oil at a high enough temp …

      • apparently vegan products are meant to mimic meat products when it comes to the sizzle

  • +2

    I find it really ironic that the price works out to be $11.80/kg whereas beef mince is $8/kg at Woolies this week. It is a really messed up world if it is cheaper to churn out a product based on the suffering of an animal than churning out a meat-free alternative on 1/2 price special. Food for thought.

      Nutritionally meat is far superior to any vegetable based product, calling this "Classic mince" is just a vain attempt to pretend to be a superior product.

      • Interested to know what you mean by “nutritionally”. Do you mean macro content? (E.g. protein per kJ, protein:carb ratio, fibre content, fat content), or do you mean total calories per serve? Or do you mean vitamin and mineral content? Or do you mean digestibility? Or do you mean fewer artificial colours/flavours? Or do you mean presence of introduced chemicals (e.g. pesticide content, heavy metals, etc).

        “Nutritionally” superior could relate to any of those things depending on what your goals are from your food. That’s the reason Dietetics exists as a specialty 4 year degree at uni and is not just a prescribed list of what everyone should eat always. And so without qualification as to what you mean by “nutritionally”, what you are saying is rubbish.

        Regardless, being Vegan doesn’t say anything about the nutritional content of a food. Raw sugar is vegan. Oreos are vegan. Cigarettes are vegan. It only has to be free from animal products to be vegan.

    Given its ingredients are mostly water, and gmo corn, made in the USA the company probably makes money making it, then more money selling it.

    Vegan is great, but this sort of stuff really falls into the well marketed hype.

    • +1

      Yep lets stick to natural beef, pork or chicken which, you guessed it has been raised on gmo corn.

    • You know what, I think you might be right. I think this company probably does make money by selling products! (Though I'm not sure how they're making money by making it before they sell it?)

      In all seriousness, I see the point you're trying to make but I don't agree with it. Something being mainly water doesn't necessarily make it cheap to produce (though granted this probably is). Regardless, price is based on economies of scale - if this rivalled actual mince then you'd see the price plummet.

      And how is it "well marketed hype"? It's marketed as being something that's vegan and a bit like mince - which is exactly what it is?

        Hey if you ever post a deal about veggie meat you should be ticking that associated check box.

      • Corn is a state supported, and heavily subsidised crop, so people get paid to produce an endless supply, with the market in a scramble to come up with inventive ways to use it.

  • Why are there so many angry people in the world? Maybe has something to them consuming the pain and suffering their food went through.

    Trying tonight in San Choy Bao. Im not vego but thought I would give it a try. Quite nice!

    • Can you give me a score out of 10?

      • +1

        Tastes great, but the texture is too soft. Instructions state to add 1/3 cup water. I would have put less, as I was trying to crisp it up. In saying that its soaked up the sauce better than meat usually does. It was a little bland by itself - I guess most plain mince is. Doesn't taste overly salty on its own.
        Solid 7/10. I'd buy it again.

        • Thanks for the support, I would call meat mince, but you know what, WHO CARES? :)
          4 bucks, can't complain more.

    People need to get over themselves. Mince as a verb
    1. cut up (food, especially meat) into very small pieces, typically in a machine.
    "minced beef"
