I think the US is so meat-centric that seitan (for those who even know what it is) and tofu/soy are commonly seen as some sort of weirdo/hippy/vegan/activist food. I suspect the reason 90% of people who arrive at seitan who aren’t involved in a cultural that already eats it are arriving there because they went looking for a meat replacement, not just for an addendum to their American diet.
- sgarland 3y agoI ate a ton of TVP growing up in rural Nebraska, of all places, because we were poor, it was cheap, and we were in a food co-op that ordered it in bulk. Surprisingly not bad in a lot of dishes.
