Meaty sandwich

I am amazed at how many times a food that I encounter in the vegetarian diet that I eat now gives the same sensations as a food that I used to eat when I was a meat eater.

Silken tofu like scrambled eggs for instance. So when I first put lightly steamed collard greens between two pieces of bread I was skeptical, even for me. Add a slice or two of tomato or cucumber and a little mustard and you have the makings of a great sandwich that has the texture and feel of a meat sandwich. The way my teeth cut down through the greens is so much like when I used to eat meat. This has become one of my favorite lunches.

There are many more examples.

More later. Thanks for reading.
