Go into any Walmart in Amerishitland.

>>16559805
i shop at walmart with a bunch of black people so we're actually pretty based and don't have shit like that

>>16559805
what even is this stuff? What "salads" is it intended to go with? Who wants thick globs of dressing?

>>16559817
Just another way to sell your rapeseed oil

>>16559817
I almost forgot about these

vegans get JUSTed

why does this one make you "cronge"? because it's called "just egg" and there is no egg, or because it's like $6-$8 for 12oz of mung bean paste with tumeric?

I bought a bottle once because curiosity and it tastes good. too expensive to buy again but i would absolutely try to make my own egg replacement from mung beans in the event I couldn't access real eggs.

JUST

>>16560036
For me it’s a bit of both. Expensive luxury food replacements marketed as sustainable always appear to try to hard, along with being unnecessary.
>I struggle to imagine a situation in which you’d have access to mung beans and the ability to process them, but not a single chicken.

>>16560098
how does it have zero added sugar but also sugar is an ingredient? I thought it was too sweet compared to an egg.

I guess in my imaginary scenario I can't go to the grocery store or there's a random egg shortage, and I would have dried mung beans in storage like I usually do and I still wouldn't own any chickens. you only need a blender and a couple ingredients to make a slightly less processed version of "just eggs".

>NOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST EAT THE HUMANE NO CHOLESTEROL HEALTHY VERSION OF EGGS

>>16560036
>$6-8 for fake meat
I'm laughing at the retards who buy this.

when I saw this shit at sprouts I started laughing like a madman

>>16560165
>implying eggs aren't healthy

>>16560445
So they actually made it. What a time to be alive.

>>16559805
Their chipotle "mayo" is actually really good

>>16560036
>"just egg"
>there is no egg
Holy fuck,lmao.

>>16560138
idk how this would be availible and not eggs considering the byproducts of expeller pressed canola oil are turned into animal feed. Mostly for poultry and pork

>>16560036
OP. Its the latter, and that I can picture someone buying this thinking that theyre making a difference despite the resources it takes to produce and ship said product. I have a strong opinion on sustainability and making things myself instead of buying a serving portion in a bottle for convenience. If I want an egg alternative I'll figure it out on my own.

>>16559805
if they try so hard to convince you this product is edible,
just makes me believe it's actually not
>yes, you can eat this !!! Really, trust me!! Why would I lie to you?!

>>16559805
Just Egg is pretty genius marketing on their part. They know people aren't going to use a "plant" based substitute so they advertise as "Just Egg" to trick idiots who don't read past that.

>>16560165
>>16560460
where did this misconception about eggs come from?

>>16560624
I hate to be that person but literally jews, pic rel

>>16560546
Why do vegan alternative products need this stark orwellian undertone?

>>16560643
vegans are too retarded to realize 1984 was a dystopia

>>16560643
It's all dystopian in nature. There was that sci fi movie where they were given a nutrient pill a day and lived in pods. This plant based stuff is just the stepping stone to get people used to not having real food

>>16560138
>how does it have zero added sugar but also sugar is an ingredient?

Because of a food item has less that a certain percentage of an ingredient, it legally doenst have to be listed in nutritional facts. That's why a single serving list for Clear American can have 0 calories per serving bit 10 calories if you drink the whole bottle

this thread is very cronge-worthy

>>16560010
the only good one is mayochup because it's just fucking fry sauce

>>16559805
is that shit not refrigerated? That's just vile.

>>16560010
>mayomust
>not mayotard

>>16559805
Why isnt it fucking illegal to call this plant based shit the same name as the real stuff

>>16562035
i have been saying this for years lmao

>>16560010

>>16561330
Most condiments are pasteurized and are shelf stable. They'll have a label that says to refrigerate after opening. You should get out of the house and not rely on your mommy to bring you tendies sauce all the time.

>>16562202
What happened to your fingernail

>>16559817
oh that's like a mayo substitute from the days of rationing in the UK post world war 2 I think
basically only dumb old people who still eat it

>>16562240
Like James May
>Mayo substitute
How the fuck can eggs and oil be scarce

>>16562245
During wartime rationing, eggs were a luxury.

>>16562270
Get a chicken ffs

>>16559805
>JUST egg
>No eggs
I fucking hate vegans so much, like eat a goddamn salad and some tofu, why the fuck do they always have to make these pretentious ironic products that pretend to be something that vegans already reject on an ideological basis?

>>16560546
>>16560445
>>16559805
I fucking hate the ironic designs of vegan products so much, I feel like a moron getting pissed off at inanimate objects at the grocery store but it all feels like they're making the dreamworks face at me. Over confidence and a false sense of superiority for stuffing yourself with chemicals and soy instead of dairy and meat.

>>16562270
why

>>16562144
At least in Europe, milk lobby went to court over this and won, so no more almond milk, soy milk whatever, can't call it milk if it isn't milk.

>>16559805
This feels intentional

>>16562406
Yeah they call it almond drink, soy drink etc.
Exceptions for historic reasons like coconut milk though.
Where I live they aren't allowed to call lactose free milk milk, so they call it milk-drink

>>16562384
Seek help if labels make you this irrationally angry
