How is tofu disgusting?
It's probably the least disgusting food in existence has basically zero flavor aside from whatever dish you use it in and is a soft yet still solid texture that readily breaks down as soon as you eat it giving you an easy to throw in extra source of protein, iron, calcium, and potassium.
I add it to beef broth all the time. It's perfect.

>>18275908
The texture is fucking grim.
You can get protein and iron from beef and calcium and potassium from veggies and raw milk
No need to eat like an impoverished Asian ladyboi

>>18275912
I eat meat still, but tofu is great and I can't figure out how you could be so horribly misguided about food.

Tofu is literally marketed by texture you idiot. You can get whichever texture you prefer, same as how not all cheese is the same texture.

It's fucking disgusting!

Why would you eat bean paste mess?

Cheese is actually a man's food.
Imagine actually chewing tofu happily and not grimacing at the fowl texture harming your pallet.

Yes. There are many foods out there that are more "disgusting" than tofu.

>>18275965
>tofu
>fake meat
It's not fake meat lmao, it's its own thing retard. Meat substitutes are decidedly not tofu, either, so I suggest you do a bit of research on what you're mad about before you continue with your autistic shit fit.

>>18275965
Tofu is not, and has never tried to be, a meat substitute. Tofu is its own thing.

>>18275980
It's its own disgusting little grim goblin thing
Why imitate meat if tofu is fine on its own?

>>18275988

it doesn't imitate meat
it's not supposed to replicate meat and doesn't try to

>>18275992
Yes it does

>>18275893
Most disgusting? No
Still a piece of crap? Yes.

>>18276001
Alright name a more disgusting food

>>18276000
Take your meds schizo, it isn't and never was a meat imitation. It's just a food product that CAN BE USED as a meat substitute, if you want to, but it's not trying to replicate it. Holy shit you are thick.

>>18275988
Just because a vegetarian eats something doesn't mean that thing is anti-meat food or meat substitute.
I eat meat and I eat tofu. You're being as retarded as if someone showed up and started insisting spaghetti was bad because it's soft and isn't made out of meat.

>>18276006
Any aspic, or jellied eels.

>>18276012
What the fuck
Who the fuck would even use it as a meat substitute other than people who want to replace meat with soislop?

>>18276020
Would rather eat those than tofu
Would be worth it for the nutrition and muscle retention

>>18276018
If you hate meat don't pretend to eat it.
Simple as

>>18276026
Jesus christ, how are you so fragile that the existence of people eating tofu instead of meat makes you go into a blind autistic rage?

>>18276039
Again, just because something CAN be used for a purpose, doesn't meat that is its entire reason for existing. It's NOT an attempt to replicate meat. It's a source of protein that happens to be vegetarian since it's made from soy. Vegetarians eat it, so do plenty of people who definitely eat meat. Nobody is pretending it's supposed to be like meat.

>>18276032
You do you, I would just avoid both.

>>18275893

>>18276039
There's a lot of reasons people don't eat meat. I don't agree with any of them and have had many fruitless conversations about it over the years. You want to know one argument I've never heard? It's that people don't eat meat because they don't want to look like they eat meat, or people don't eat meat because they think every possible dish involving meat is disgusting and therefore can't possibly be replicated without using meat. You're completely making this shit up.

>>18276091
A lot of fucking things are made from soy dude, only one of them is tofu. Something being made of soy doesn't automatically make it tofu.

>>18276097
Yikes
Soy is responsible for the downfall of this world
>>18276092
>Every possible dish involving meat is disgusting
Inhuman

If you want to compare tofu to any kind of animal product, compare it to cheese, because they are made in very similar ways. Tofu is bean cheese.

That's the only place that's really anything like what the chuds imagine a "liberal shithole" looks like, except that it's actually gorgeous and clean and almost entirely white; the only problem is that the people are insufferable.

Cope

>>18276223
It's inherently bad. The "you just need to cook it right" excuse is a retarded meme.
Massive amounts of research and funding have gone into trying to make brussels sprouts taste less bad by selectively breeding them for less glucosinolate content. It's clearly a real issue before cooking is even introduced to the equation.

>>18276257
How is that weird? He looked up a list of "worlds must disgusting foods" and then just listed a bunch of really popular stuff that he personally doesn't like. The disparity between the two sides makes them invalidate one another as an argument.

>>18276247
I literally said I prefer chickpeas over soy, retard. And yes, having less estrogen is important to me. Even meat has estrogen in it.

>>18276265
You don't need to look up a list to be aware of their existence even if you haven't personally eaten them.
I never ate Altoona style pizza or surströmming but I know what they are since it's common knowledge.

>>18276268
>yes, having less estrogen is important to me
Not that anon, but... that's just really sad dude. Imagine even writing out that sentence and being serious. What the fuck is wrong with people these days? You're so worried about turning gay that you've turned yourself into an insufferable faggot without even realizing it.

>>18275958
>Cheese is actually a man's food.

Pretending that the "hue hue manly food" thing has any value at all, how the fuck did you come up with that? Cheese is quite feminine and posh..

>>18276280
>Altoona style pizza or surströmming
>it's common knowledge
It absolutely is not. Most people here know what they are because they're on the 4chan food board so of course gross food gets posted constantly. Go outside and ask anybody if they've heard of those things. That's not even the point, though. It's disingenuous to compare something like surströmming to tofu, because everybody has had tofu but very few people (including you) have had surströmming. Brussels sprouts is a better example. Lots of people say they don't like brussels sprouts, and lots of people love them, but everyone has at least had them. The same it true for tofu.

>>18275977

Based, this place is normie central. It's kinda sad desu.

>Go outside
Absolutely not.

>>18276304

>>18276287
Nah cheese goes on a burger to make you big and burly
Not an effeminate little soy snack by any means

I like tofu so long as wypipo don't try to use it as a catch-all meat replacement. Tuna and tofu stew. Pork-tofu-and-leek stuffed buns. Mapo tofu (which has pork in it). Beef with stinky tofu. Red tofu as an ingredient for making barbecue or yahon (which will always have meat of some kind). Beef-stuffed tofu skin (better with pork, but my mom always did it with beef). Deep-fried chicken-and-vegetable-stuffed tofu pockets. Tofu braised in stock (fish, pork, beef, whatever). Tofu rolls with sausage. Prawn-and-tofu-stuffed eggplants/zucchini.
Fuck, I'm hungry.
Oh, and I forgot about the tofu desserts! Not gonna list any, though, but fuck me, are they good.

>>18275906
I also enjoy steak. Strip is my favourite cut. I want it rare to medium-rare. Salt and pepper only. Spritz of lemon at the table.
I'll eat it seasoned other ways but only really like it when not cooked any further than medium-rare.

>>18275985
Preach, sister.

>>18276012
He's not far off. White people in the past adopted tofu as a meat alternative, thus ruining it for the west. In those applications, it's just plain awful excepting tofu banh mi. I fucks with tofu banh mi.

>>18276342
Mine never comes out right. : (

>>18276463
I also like cheeseburgers.

>>18276463
Wine and cheese is one of the most stereotypically feminine and/or homosexual geared culinary traditions in existence.
And I'm not saying cheese is inherently feminine / gay. Just saying it's a bit retarded to call it 'manly'.
Same with tofu. Plenty of faggoty vegetarians eat it but that doesn't mean normal straight meat eating people don't also eat it.

>>18276479
If you eat tofu you're not human

I had some tofu for lunch because of this thread. I didn't even cook it. Just some cold silken tofu straight out of the fridge over a bowl of rice with some vegetable and topped with Kewpie and Bachan's. Absolutely delicious. I feel sorry for people incapable of enjoying such a common and versatile ingredient.

>>18276502

>>18276587

>>18276665
>talking about burgers and cheese
>clearly
So you're saying putting cheese on a hamburger is more manly than just eating it plain? That's really weird. The only stereotypical difference I can even think of between people who prefer one or the other is that children typically prefer cheeseburgers over regular hamburgers.

Why is that funny? It's true. Same as with cheeses. Tofu is pretty similar to how cheese works in general since it's also curdled. Benjamin Franklin even called it a cheese in the earliest American mention of tofu in recorded history.

It's been ages since I've ordered a hamburger, but there is a difference between an ingredient complimenting a dish and it being the main staple of your diet.

Botanists don't refer to anything as a vegetable you pseud. A cucumber is a botanical fruit and lettuce is a leaf using that terminology.

>>18283277
Why would I ask them to hold them? The less their grubby hands touch my food, the better.

Who claimed they made tofu the core of their diet? Most everyone here has been saying the opposite, that they eat both tofu and meat because they aren't fussy children.

No. There is no such thing as a botanical vegetable. It's not a botanical term. They refer to them by the part of the plant (fruit, leaf, stem), not by word "vegetable."

You generally don't eat tofu on its own. It gets prepared / cooked with other ingredients to give it flavor.
It's a blank canvas. You can do pretty much anything you want in making a dish with it.

Shocker: It's frying it to make it crispy. Frying shit to make it crispy makes like 80% of all food somewhat enjoyable so it's not really surprising.

Wtf? Tofu has a lot of consistencies and one for example is a bit sausage like. You are just fucking retarded.

>>18285818
I just slice it thin and fry it crisp, no eggwash or cornflour.

>>18286635
if you're going to deep fry it, def. cornstarch/cornstarch... if you marinate it first in something vaguely poultry-like (salt, onion, soya/worcestershire, sage and rosemary for instance), you basically get square chicken noggers.

Also that tofu you're trying to be edgy to put down is uncooked and unseasoned, slaughter shill.

>>18290604
That's the point. It shouldn't have to be cooked and seasoned to have flavor. Just eat something else like some succulent juicy chicken.

>>18291174
>It shouldn't have to be cooked and seasoned to have flavor.
That's an advantage, not a negative. It's convenient to have as a blank canvas that can be made to absorb and work with the flavors of whatever dishes you want to use it in. If it had a strong flavor of its own you'd be more limited in how you could cook with it.

>>18275977
>oatmeal
This guy was fishing for (You)'s!

>>18291218
Or you just use those flavors without a "blank canvas" and make something better

made tofu in like 3 minutes and it was good you fags cant cook shit go back to taco bell

>>18291265

>>18275908
>zero flavor
just say you dont know what you are talking about and fuck off.

>>18291986
You fuck off. Tofu is as close to zero flavor as a food gets (which isn't bad and is part of its appeal since you can cook it with anything you want that way), though you can buy a kind of tofu that has a bit more of a bean flavor to it. Pretentious dickhead.

because i have taste buds?
tofu has an extremely distinct and powerful flavor.
you can instantly know if a meal has tofu in it.
maybe the tofu in your shithole country just sucks and literally has no flavor. but tofu in my country has a very specific taste. and no this isn't some cheap trash, i was vegetarian and vegan for many years and have tasted literal top of the line tofu and it has a strong taste.
to deny that is to deny reality.

>>18292015
>tofu has an extremely distinct and powerful flavor.
Absolute bullshit, stopped reading there because you're not even trying to dial down the blatant lying. To the extent it has a taste at all its most definitely not anywhere close to "powerful" you dipshit.

>>18292024

>>18292089
Use any search engine you like you lying faggot and look up what tofu tastes like, then come back here and lie some more about how you didn't see hundreds of pages talking about the way tofu is versatile because it has almost no flavor of its own.
Do you think we're all just hallucinating this you idiot? Maybe you have some shitty third world version of tofu that does have a strong flavor but that doesn't somehow make the tofu everyone else eats nonexistent.
Seriously, go look it up. You'll see plenty of "has no flavor," "has a very subtle flavor," "only has the flavor of what you cook it in," etc. descriptions, over and over again, because that's EXACTLY what tofu is like.

IF that was true, then why DOESN'T tofu act the same way as a contraceptive????

Why have I never heard of women being unable to become pregnant from soy?

Nobody should ever try to do that at home since it's not real meds. I'm not a doctor and none of this is advice.

For one thing that post was obviously a joke. And for another thing, just because Thing A and Thing B have an equal amount of Substance X that doesn't mean Thing A will be identical in function to Thing B.
It's like asking why Tylenol doesn't make you feel as good as Percocets when both contain acetaminophen. The answer is acetaminophen isn't what makes you feel good on Percocets and you made an assumption you shouldn't have.
Estrogen alone isn't what makes birth control pills work. It's just a component of birth control pills and was added to prevent irregular shedding / stabilize the endometrium / make bleeding more predictable.

I'd say it's the opposite. You can easily marinate tofu or put it in a soup or stew and it will absorb whatever flavors you're using and be de delicious. It's also pretty good if you just eat it plain with some soy sauce and green onions. With oatmeal you have to add a bunch of sugar and it's still going to taste like bland gruel, just mixed with a bunch of sugary shit.

>>18276342
I want to make something like this with ground lamb and heavy cream, lots of parsley and tarragon. Nothing like mapo but it has tofu and peppercorn.
