falafel is def. #1, for veggie patties you can get at the store i like quorn, dr praeggers (preggers lol), there's one at target that's literally just vegetables, i forget the name, but one is dark green because it's mostly broccoli, one is dark red (I think that's radish or beets), etc. morningstar is pretty meh

Broccoli- and beet-flavored falafel? That sounds potentially good.

https://ourworldindata.org/energy There's nothing surprising here but I thought all this being laid out in graphs was funny. In 1980, fossil fuels were 91% of energy use. In 1990, fossil fuels were 87.4%.. In 2000, fossil fuels were 86.1%. In 2010, fossil fuels were 86.6%. in 2019, fossil fuels were 84.3%. In a mere forty years we have ever more slowly reduced the fossil fuel mix in the economy by nearly 7% at the incredibly paltry cost of increasing fossil fuel consumption twice over. All data ultimately sourced from BP's annual energy reports.

I was thinking how in Interstellar there's great detail of how the farmers are eating nothing but various corn dishes. If I ever make a movie set in the near future, the protagonists will eat an inordinate amount of bean curd biscuits. I love them but there's something that feels vaguely Dystopian Future about a delicious featureless puck of protein and fibre.Cup Runneth Over posted:Ban the car, ban the plane, gulag any who complain Anyway, new thread title please.

Two good brands are Zuming and Zhen Xiang, look in an Asian grocery store. It owns, basically vegan jerky for under $1 per 100 grams. And way better in terms of carbon emissions than beef jerky!

PETA gave some out at the college I was attending a long while back and it was one of the more delicious things I've ever eaten. That said, gently caress PETA.

You could try Whole Foods but I have no idea where you'd get inexpensive mushroom jerky. Whereas bean curd biscuits are under $1/100g, mushroom jerky is more like $20/100g and doesn't taste as good. PETA are basically vegan-themed grifters, they care more about shock value than helping animals. They know some good vegan food, though.

AND THERE'S RECIPES!!! A couple of years ago I started a Stropharia (Garden Giant, Winecaps) bed under one of our hedgerows. I had no idea what I was doing so the bed is way too big for our needs. (There are only three meals in a day so I'm limited in the number of mushroom omelettes I can eat.) That will change if they make good jerky. A little something to enjoy while I watch the forests burn.

In the US it will be fueled by F-350s but they'll periodically hit them on purpose instead of letting them socialize the wind from their lovely bricks on wheels.

IAMKOREA posted:how are stropharia, anyway? been thinking about trying to get some going in my next garden, planning to mulch the paths with woodchips and then innoculate the paths. are they tasty? Wonderful. Classic mushroom with a bit of earthy/potato undertaste. Very robust, they don't just fade away into whatever you're cooking. Unfortunately my wife reacts to them - they burn the roof of her mouth the same way an extra-hot pot of chili does. Always good to do a small test with a new species of mushroom just in case you're one of a small percentage that don't get along with it. I've tried shiitake, a couple of species of oyster, and chicken of the woods using logs and inoculated plugs. Dismal failures all. Chicken of the woods produced an orange colour on the end of the plugs and that was it. I'm going to try again with shiitake using sterilized wood chips in containers this spring. The fungus will not defeat me!

By contrast, 100 grams of beef contains 290 calories and 26 grams of protein. A 100-gram serving requires 50 grams of CO2 equivalent to produce. Producing a 100-gram serving of beef requires 1,600 to 10,000 grams of CO2 equivalent, depending on the methods used. The average in American is 7,100.

and how many of those grams are carbs and of those how many are straight up sugar if you say >10 for the first (since this is but 300 cal) and or >5 for the second then enjoy your candy but 0% delude yourself about it being healthy and therefore a useful tool in improving global nutrition making something technically vegetarian and basically just candy is just another version of "fruit juice" edit: I tried answering my own question, could not find a good answer, but this page has some great numbers: https://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/calories/beancurd-roll-1206041416 MightyBigMinus has issued a correction as of 21:09 on Jan 10, 2021 |

MightyBigMinus posted:and how many of those grams are carbs and of those how many are straight up sugar It's jerky, not a cookie. I know "biscuit" is misleading. According to the label, each bag has 23 grams of fat, 15 grams of protein, and 9 grams of cards including 0.5 grams of sugar. Also, I'm not saying this is the only food of the future like mangosteens or whatever, it's just a good example of cheap good food that is orders of magnitude better than meat.
