    Yves hotdog… When I was a vegetarian 30 years ago, I really appreciated them. It let me eat hotdogs with family without me feeling like an oddity. The recipe hasn’t changed. They were never good, but now there’s options that are good, and culturally people are pretty OK with having veggie options now

      Yves salami still holds up. It’s almost too accurate, really. I often prefer in-no-way-a-facsimile vegan deli slices for that reason.

        Had their pepperoni on a homemade pizza tonight, with soy curls dried by a local vegan restaurant, simple stewed tomato sauce, garlic lemon cashew sauce (“cheese” if you must), truffle salt, sprinkled with fresh parsley. Fucking great.

          Ooh nice. I’ve found that if you separately fry vegan pepperoni in oil it gets the right crisoed up flavor + texture. Game-changer for vegan pizzas!
