Disappointing dinner


I knew today was going to be chore day and I thought that an easy dinner would be perfect after a long day of laundry and cleaning. Baked beans, corn on the cob, and I decided to try Garden Burger's BBQ Riblets. ( Don't worry Sean, your having hot dogs! lol) I've seen numerous rave reviews for these and I saw them on sale last time I went shopping so I thought I'd give them a try. Bllahhh. Yuck. Can you tell I didn't like them? Lol I am a rib girl...I love BBQ. Just ask my boyfriend how quiet I become when I sit down to a rack of ribs. Haha! Im so disappointed. I even gave it a second bite to make sure...nope. My dinner of beans and corn was kinda boring. I see popcorn in my near future.

Anyone else try these? Anyone like them? I couldn't get past the stringy soy shreds. Don't get me wrong I eat a Morning Star soy sausage patty every morning on my breakfast sandwich but something about it turned my stomach. Oh well I tried. Now I want a rack. Not a half rack either! OH now that's a lot of points! YIKES! lol Pin It

  3. I'm not totally sold on soy yet. I mean, I get that it's better for you than meat, and maybe you can talk me into trying a burger made of the stuff, but ribs is stretching it. I am a rib fanatic, so it bothers me that any non-meat product would even be so cocky as to assume they could ever pull off that kinda greatness. Soy has a giant ego.

  4. I'm sorry your dinner was disappointing. I've not tried them (I kind of doubt they are gluten free!), and now I know not to, so thanks for that!

  5. I'm with Tricia. I think they try to stretch it too far, and then miss the mark big time.

  6. Thanks for the head's up.

    I'm finding the few pre-packaed meals I've tried are not so hot. I'll mark this of my to-try list.

  7. I could never replace pork with soy. I've tried, but I don't have the willpower. I looooove pork.
