My main point is that this has none of the macros of a hotdog so it hits differently than a hotdog. I am on tofu and chickpeas these days and I’m not really disputing the possibility of getting protein on a vegan diet, tofu and seitan are very under-rated by bro fitness chicken-and-rice guys. Those foods are pretty high in carbs compared to lean meat or non-fatty fish, I now have to eat a lot less stuff like bread and rice that’s only carbs now. Compared to fatty meat like a hotdog, those replace the fat with complex plant carb which is probably better for you, but is a struggle to adjust to.

When I ate hotdogs I could eat like 3 and be good for a while if that was my lunch. I don’t see myself eating 3 carrot-dogs and being good for a while.

A lot of people have surprisingly bad diets, I know too many people who don’t really eat vegetables. When a typical meat-eater thinks about going vegan, they imagine eating a giant carrot replacing their giant slab of meat, and this is why people come in and say these things. I understand that point of view on this as someone who struggles with switching, and a recipe that tries to emulate the flavour profile and form of a hotdog but not the having the actual stuff that makes you feel like you ate a hotdog 10 minutes ago is a confusing thing for a non-vegan.

There’s no real point to the original commenter, and there’s no real point to my comment. Other than me understanding where the other person comes from.

Well nutritionally instead of being half fat, half protein, and a ton of preservatives that are probably bad for you, it’s all complex-ish carbs and fibre.

Stuff like this ‘hot dog’ is where the “how do you even protein as a vegan bro” stuff comes about. Idk how you ‘fix’ that, maybe keto hotdog buns, and turning it into a bean chilli “dog”?

It sucks that you can’t just go all in on vegan direct replacements because the nutrition is so different and you won’t be full changing the macros of your meals overnight. If you had a terrible diet eating nothing but hotdogs and changed to this you’d feel hungry.

The whole building meals around a meat protein, and then having a bunch of other stuff diet is hard to break, and this sort of recipe is easy to give the impression that vegans are always hungry because it’s so foreign.

I notice that I have to add a lot more fat to my meals to balance them because vegan protein comes with a lot more carbs, unlike animal protein which comes with fat by default.

100g of seitan isn’t that much seitan and I’d eat that much in a sitting.

I’m never going to eat 100g (588 calories) of peanut butter in a sitting, so it’s not really useful for anything. It has twice as much protein per 100g than tofu, yet tofu is a way better food for hitting daily protein goals. So what exactly is this number useful for if higher isn’t better?

Serving sizes on nutrition info are arbitrary, but useful for having an idea of how much of something to eat at once. Protein per calorie is more useful for meal planning to hit minimum protein goals.

I don’t see how protein per calorie would misinform as long as it’s labelled. To me this is more misinforming because of the vastly different serving sizes.

It’s called leasing a car you wanted anyways as a business expense sweaty.

You can also write off “light trucks” more than normal “cars”. Add in some green subsidies that probably exist under democrats, and there’s no point not having a new cybertruk.

Other than it potentially breaking your fingers if you use the frunk. Or not having rear visibility if you use the built in trunk cover. Or many design innovations.

The drum part is so fun in this

Idk why these charts are never protein per 100 calories.

Seitan is still the best for price/protein/calories if you can find wheat gluten and make it yourself. Peanut butter powder is also better on protein because of how much less fat is in it.

It’s self help for tories, it’s not really that deep.

Some of it is generic enough self help you can’t really argue with, other stuff will leap out at you for being only slightly hidden conservatism in a supposedly apolitical self-help book.

Pirate it on libgen, or z-library or something.

Buy a bunch in bulk from China, go to the meetup spot, and then sell them out the back of your car.

Already missed the boat on peak money making, but I think there are still enough stupid in lifted trucks that you can make money.

Does China hate American stuff as much as Americans hate Chinese stuff?

Or is their country still generally on the upswing while the US is in decline so they don’t care that much?

Always thought about selling trumpian t-shirts at rallies at big markup.

Brace Belden’s t-shirt is probably the best one:

❎ Democrat

❎ Republican

✅ Gay Guy

Except where I am they’d be “fuck Trudeau” t-shirts, stickers, etc.
