I know what you're saying but I think it's aimed more towards the ex-meat eaters as opposed to those who've been vegetarians for most of their lives. It means that they can still have the look and the taste of the food they enjoyed as carnivores but without having to eat animals. Having tried some of these alternatives I can honestly say that they're largely revolting. Quorn mince works ok I think as it's used in flavoursome dishes like bologneses and Chillis but those fake slices of ham and bacon taste like flavoured slices of cardboard, but as a veggie you've always got good standbys like eggs and cheese to work with. I tried some "sheeze" recently (plant based cheese)...it was absolutely vile. I personally find that these alternatives give me bloating and belly ache so not great! Nowt wrong it cutting down on meat or cutting it out altogether but meat substitutes are not generally the answer!Don't care how much they say its 'soft' and looks like the real thing - its still plastic. So its a no from me. Does this faux leather recycle very well ?
(anyway, for those that don't want to wear leather, why buy something that looks like leather ? and the vegetarians who dont want to eat meat, why are there products formed to look like meat ? I've never understood that)
I'm a vegetarian and can tell you the green cuisine items from Birds eye I tried were revolting. I don't eat meat as I don't like the texture and Quorn and Soya products look too much like meat so I don't eat them.I know what you're saying but I think it's aimed more towards the ex-meat eaters as opposed to those who've been vegetarians for most of their lives.

I think that the beige colour in faux leather is very difficult to achieve.Look at the lapels on the ‘beige’ coat, how ugly.
Sophia couldn't do up the awful coat which looked horrendous on her. What is the point of buying a jacket or coat that won't button up should you want it to. I rarely button up a garment but I don't want to be tugging at the sides all the time in an effort to make it look like it fits. Didn't look much better in Racheal who was also shoe-horned into a size that was too small for her.Bet the models won't do it up!
Highly inappropriate should have been given to a lady presenter,now who likes talking about bodily functions. Thelma come on downJust watching now and it looks awful on everyone. The brown looks like an old grocer’s overall from the 1960s. Sophia looks like she’s dressed from a rubbish skip. Of course most of them won’t do up. It looks really cheap especially the sage where you can see the lines where is been folded - yeah that really looks like leather- Not!
Worse than that - what a good idea to co present a pelvic floor exercise gadget complete with diagrams of a woman inserting it up chuff and talk about ladies bits with a man (Biagi) Call me old fashioned but Q this is inappropriate and would be more helpful with a female presenter!!!
I didn't see him doing it, it was 2 women when I saw it, and the BA was so good I even put up a post about her.Worse than that - what a good idea to co present a pelvic floor exercise gadget complete with diagrams of a woman inserting it up chuff and talk about ladies bits with a man (Biagi) Call me old fashioned but Q this is inappropriate and would be more helpful with a female presenter!!!
