   I really want to go back to southeast and east Asia and eat GOOD tofu prepared in HUNDREDS OF DIFFERENT WAYS and not BETTER THAN CHICKEN because in those parts of the world people eat tofu AND chicken

     All to say, there are lots of crimes against tofu in the form of poorly prepared tofu that then makes people say they hate tofu, which is such a travesty.

     Nobody hates tofu in those places.

     Also don’t go to a Chinese or Japanese or Korean restaurant and rage that not all 10 tofu dishes are vegetarian or vegan. They will be as surprised as you are about it being not, that tofu is supposed to be for vegetarians and vegans only

     @skinnylatte the western vegetarian/vegan obsession with replicating meats and cheeses is so annoying. Just let vegetables and tofu and whatnot be their delicious selves!

     @tedmielczarek @skinnylatte and of course the Chinese already perfected it hundreds of years ago. https://www.vice.com/en/article/the-origins-of-fake-meat-are-rooted-in-chinese-cooking/

     @irene @tedmielczarek it’s really good. I would rather eat this than eat actual squid in a pack
