      Look, I'm inclined to agree they'll be shit, but I'd rather when companies introduce new niche shit like all this plant based bollocks, that they do deals like this, rather than just straight jump into charging an arm and a leg for the hipster tosspots who pay it without question anyway. New products should be given intro deals and promotions, regardless of the item, it's good when someone is confident enough in their product to offer it at a introductory discount, no?

      • TheDukeOfNukem on 15/08/2022 - 17:39

        Complaining about something you haven't even tried just for the sake of it, isn't criticising. It's trolling.

        I haven't seen a single comment saying "I've tried it, but it's shit". Because that would be actual criticism and most likely wouldn't get as many down votes.

  • Miss B on 15/08/2022 - 12:49

    I haven't tried this, but their vegan chicken was actually really good when they did that a few years ago (not sure what else they've done over the years). I'm not big on the plant-based meat products, but may be worth a try. I think the flavours help, but the texture was pretty good too.

    • CodeExplode on 15/08/2022 - 13:05

      I find almost any mince-alternative works well in tacos so long as you use taco seasoning while cooking it and salsa on the taco. Impossible is obviously best but tacos are more forgiving for some of the less tasty cheaper alternatives.

      Nutritional yeast also has a strong cheesy taste and is usually packed with Vitamin B12, so makes a decent alternative to cheese. Once you've packed everything else in, tacos are probably the easiest meal to go animal-free and low environmental impact for me without noticing a difference.

      For laziness I tend to go taco shell, cheap plant mince cooked with olive oil and taco mix, salsa, nutritional yeast, grated carrot (it just works so well), and mixed lettuces. Other veggies would probably be good too but I CBF doing much more than frying up the mince and grating a carrot most days.

      Most of us who don't eat meat didn't stop because we don't love the taste and recipes, we just don't want to hurt others for luxuries and contribute so heavily to climate change.

      Why insist on such ridiculous rules anybody should follow? What does it accomplish? It's like saying that those who don't want to buy textiles linked to the northern Chinese mass interment camps shouldn't wear any clothes at all. It makes no sense, there's no logical continuation of thoughts.

          Just plain wrong. There are so many studies which have all overwhelmingly pointed to the same thing, cutting out meat is one of the best possible things you can do to reduce your environmental impact: https://www.bcg.com/publications/2022/combating-climate-cris…

          B12 is easy to get and fortified into a bunch of alternatives now. Why do the dregs of our species always suffer the delusion that they're insightful geniuses who are the only ones who know some basic fact, thinking they're blowing people's minds pointing out obvious things, and in such a race to get a high from telling non-meat eaters off?

          Do you panic this hard about the illnesses associated with eating various red meats? Or are you really just flailing against anybody who breaks the script you were raised to follow because you still don't yet know how to handle new and different ideas and address them on their merits?

            Ah yes a factory plant mass producing fake meat slop is so much better for the world than cows in a field. Yes 100%

            B12 is easy to get and

            …is naturally occurring in ANIMAL PRODUCTS! If they found a way to scientifically infuse vitamins and minerals into sawdust, would you be in favour of eating sawdust to "save the planet"?

              @ParmiAndChips: 1.red meat is a carcinogen, but you likely don't believe the WHO.
              2.B12 isn't naturally occurring in ruminants, historically they got it from natural sources but now they are supplemented with it.

              @ParmiAndChips: 304 diet reviews between 1950-2013 and the consensus was plants > flesh.

              The longest living civilisations on earth ate meat around once a month. I wouldn't conclude that it was the once a month consumption that was keeping them living.

              Beans are obviously better than fake meat slop but fake meat slop at least has some fibre and is less likely to have more cholesterol, trans fat, saturated fat, bioaccumulated toxins, TMAO and carcinogenic risk.

              Fake meat slop doesn't sit crammed up somewhere using up resources such as land, water, plant food and releasing carbon and methane in the atmosphere. They are also not subsidised by governments like real meat slop . I hope you equally slam the meat slop in a Mcdonald's burger

              The fact is that bacteria produce B12. As such, it becomes a simple question of - are you going to get B12 from the bacteria in isolation, or are you going to exploit and kill billions of animals just to get B12 from the bacteria within their bodies? In addition, a B12 supplement is injected into livestock to keep their levels up due to top soil being too intensively used and lacking in certain nutrients. So the choice becomes even more absurd - either take a B12 supplement, or give an animal a B12 supplement then kill them. Why take the second option?

    I'm not a vegan or even vegetarian, but am just interested in how technology and innovation can improve the world.

    I have made plant based tacos at home using IKEA plant based mince and TBH when all the spices are added you can't even tell the difference. Texturally it's not as firm, but taste wise it's pretty much identical.

    I assume this will be the same or better than what I concocted. That said I've never actually had Mad Mex, so if their normal tacos are shit, then this'll be shit also. GYG is life.
