Happier to use spices on tofu, beans, soy curls, and even sometimes the dreaded processed plant-based mock-meats (when they go on sale). (Shamelessly stealing this image from some crackpot carnivore diet community elsewhere on the lemmyverse, with which I have never once interacted, but noticed I have been banned from. Lulz.)

    Hey, last I checked, you have omnivores, vegetarians, and vegans. Pretty much no one is purely carnivore. Besides, I’ve never heard of an omnivore complain about having to eat “plants” (spices), unless it’s a child who doesn’t like broccoli or something.

    I’ve cut back on meat over the past couple of years, but I reserve the right to have a plate of chicken tenders when coping with emotional distress.

    The only plant I put on a steak is a little black pepper.

    Gotta add some veggies to your diet.

    Vegetarians and vegans just hate plants more than they love animals. It’s the mineral eaters you really need to keep your eye on.

    So one of my favorite seasonings to add to hamburger, along with other beef and some pork stuff is… Beef Bullion. Now you may scoff at the idea of this redundancy, but give it a try next time you make hamburger or beef tacos or whatever. if not, you’re missing out.

    remember folks. if you don’t put any herbs and seasonings on your food… there is a 100% chance you are British, stupid, or more likely both. British food should be renamed “Bland shit that gets served in a dying home” (dying home = those shitty retirement homes where people go to die alone with a meal plan that makes USA public school food look like $100k plate 5 star food cooked by the best chefs in the world)

    I don’t even BUY meat anymore! I’m a real man! A MAN’S MAN! I find animals in the wild and I chase them until thtye die of exhaustion and I eat it RAW! I have to get shots and medication to fight off prions and parasites like every other week BUT THIS IS HOW MEN DID IT IN MEN’S DAYS! I neither rely on the big production of meat or eating “plants” like some yuppie ass hipster! THIS IS HOW MEN SHOULD BE! WE ARE HUNTERS or something, I dunno. shoutouts to joe biden

    The script can very easily be flipped, OP. “If you like plants so much why are you trying to make it imitate meat?”

  • Spices in quantity are generally used to improve subpar ingredients. If you get top quality meat, it needs nothing but cooking. But most of us can’t afford top quality meats all the time.

  • On the opposite side, why do vegans spend so much time and energy trying to make replacements of meat products? Not protein, but vegan sausages, vegan bacon, vegan eggs, that sort of thing. They’re trying to replace the very thing they gave up with something that looks and tastes like the very thing they gave up.

    For the British: the things shown in the picture are spices. You add them to food to make it have taste.

    Before I took up veganism, someone asked me about my feelings on it once. And this was pretty much my response. I’m not really that attached to food in general though. My answer wasn’t satisfactory though, because later they complained that I needed expressively enjoy the alternatives we ate.
