how do I make a good veggie burger? a friend of mine served me some really good ones the other day, and today I tried to make it myself, but it didn't go too well. anyway, that recipe was for a vegan burger, so maybe it's easier if I find a good recipe with eggs in it.

Add meat.

I don't want meat flavor, I want chick pea flavor or kidney bean flavor or whatever veggie burgers taste. I like to eat hamburgers, but veggie burgers is something entirely different if you do it right and don't try to replicate the meat taste.

just spice it right. i make veggie burgers all the time. black beans make the best ones, imo, but lentils and other beans are good too. if your problem is binding but you still want to keep it vegan, just use a flax "egg" (2 tbls water+1 tbls flax meal) or throw some four or bread crumbs in.

I love using minced portabella mushrooms in burgers, maybe that will help. I mix it with meat though, you could mix it with ground, cooked chickpeas though. Maybe an egg to bind.

I had some portabella mushrooms in mine today actually. and chickpea flour. I guess I'll try approx the same recipe but with an added egg the next time.

>> No.4415504

>>4415470
yeah, just use an egg then. i like to spice mine with chili, cumin, smoked paprika, and maybe some siracha (if i'm feelin hottt.) throw an onion and garlic in there too. goes great with a simple guac and some plantain chips.

Pretty much. I posted a thread saying I was trying to reduce the amount of animal products in my diet and wanted to know some delicious vegan foods I could learn to cook. Anyways, about half the posts were people flaming me, calling me a faggot and other such nonsense. Just ignore them. I suspect it's just /b/ overflow

Because it's the natural order. I don't feel bad about it because the animals die to feed me, not for my pleasure. Pay attention to what animals do to other animals and what we humans do pales in comparison.

Also because excluding an entire class of foods which we are clearly designed to eat makes no logical sense whatsoever. Avoiding meat is just as childish as those who refuse to eat veggies.

>> No.4415660

i eat vegan simply because i don't like the quality of meat available, the taste of eggs, and the thought of drinking another animals milk for it's baby repulses me (plus it's cancerous as hell.) if i had more money i would probably buy locally sourced, harmone-free meat from time to time, but honestly, at this point i don't ever crave meat and i feel like i wouldn't really like the taste/texture.

No, you and all vegens really are faggots. You don't realize your so caled "lifestyle" is a luxury for pretentious faggots and you'd be eating and sucking the marrow of rat bones if modern civilization collapsed and all your vitamins and supplements weren't so readily prepared for you.

The rest of us would continue hunting, raising and devouring delicious animals.

The way we treat animals who are raised for food is unethical. Obviously you've found some way to justify it, but I refuse to. I know I can live my life and be perfectly healthy without contributing towards the mass toruture/slaughter of animals and so I choose to. I don't go into meat-eater threads and flame people for their choices. Why do you feel the need to come into vegetarian/vegan threads and be such a prick?

>> No.4415672

>>4415662
that's a misconception. you can be vegan and get all the vitamins you need naturally. i've been vegan for three years now and am constantly broke as hell. veggies are cheaper than meat/seafood.

Well, the previous poster asked a question. I answered it. I wouldn't have posted but 4415634 asked, so I replied. It's not malicious, it's called having a discussion.

While its true that keeping them locked up is a terrible idea, there's nothing wrong with eating animals, because the reality is, animals will eat right back. with cows and sheep and pigs and such, these animals are essentially our slaves permanently, and by that I mean, you can't put these animals in the environment again and leave them to their own devices and expect them to live. they will be killed. the war against meat is really nothing more than an extinction program against domestic-able animals. What we should be doing with these animals is instead of keeping our ranches locked up, we should allow them to roam more freely, mimmicking nature to reverse the processes of desertification, if we do that, not only will there be a green (A REAL GREEN, not shitty organic 'green') way for people to puchase meat, but it will be enormous environmental impact which makes the meat market more sustainable as more and more grazingland is created with the addition of more and more grasslands.

>veggies are cheaper than meat/seafood.

By weight, sure. Then again, veggies are 95% water, so that doesn't really help you in the end.

When you compare the cost versus nutrution, however, things change. A pound of lettuce is cheaper than a pound of beef. But, a pound of lettuce contains almost zero nutrition. A pound of beef contains a great deal of nutritional value.

Obviously premium meats are indeed expensive but many of them are FANTASTIC value for money. For example, chickens. A whole chicken costs about $5 and provides four large servings of lean meat, plus fat for cooking, plus extra meat to make chicken salad or soup, plus the skeleton to make stock from--all of which are nutritious. Compare the nutrition you get out of a chicken (protein, vitamins, minerals, etc.) to $5 worth of carrots or broccoli or apples and you'll see it's much worse.

Here's the USDA nutritional database:
