A few months back, I posted my Vegan Italian Beef recipe. I found myself with a ton of Unlimeat in my freezer (both my Vons & Sprouts were blowing it out for $2 a box…had to buy ‘em!). I usually use Tofurky for my Italian Beef, but despite being labeled as Korean BBQ, this Unlimeat is pretty neutral in flavor. So - I tried it tonight with my recipe and HOLEEEE MOLEEEY it came out AMAZING! Unlimeat is now my favorite protein for this recipe. It absorbs all the flavors and has such a great texture! I hope I can still find Unlimeat at my local stores after I run out of my stash.

Here’s the old post with my recipe…I replaced the Tofurky with 2 packages of Unlimeat:

I went to the farmer’s market this morning to pick up my semi-regular stash of Dave’s Tempha…and was shocked to see this sign. I’ve been eating Dave’s Tempha for over a decade…my kids love it…and now - poof. Gone. This might be the most devastating local vegan loss for me. The other stuff they have is great, too - but Tempha was so unique and delicious. If you never had it, it was like a vegan Korean fish cake. A great snack & a great addition to soups, salads, etc.

RIP TEMPHA!!!!! 😭😭😭😭

Apparently there’s one specific machine required to make it…it broke, and the owner doesn’t want to fix it, leaving Dave without any option to keep making it. 😰
