Happy Tofurky Day 2008! November 27, 2008

Posted by Ryan | Permalink | Comments ( 14 ) | TrackBack

I don't know about you, but Thanksgiving has to be my absolute favorite holiday (sorry Flag Day). On what other day would it be socially acceptable to eat like you don't plan on living tomorrow, sit and watch parades on TV (no walking required), and celebrate the beginning of the winter holiday season with a tall glass (or eight) of everybody's favorite vegan nog? What a day to be alive...

I'm sure you're all out there enjoying your scrumptious homemade recipes, but I thought I would share some pics from our peta2 feast (you know, to make you jealous and stuff):

Tofurky, of course!

My first three plates...(notice the vegan mac 'n cheese on all three)

Some of the many vegan cupcakes created for the occasion

With meals like these being served all across our lovely nation today, it's hard to believe that some people actually eat dead birds around this time of year! Don't they know it's 2008?

So I showed you mine. What's on your plate today?



P.S. - Still know some bird-eaters out there? Well, we've got you covered with this sweet e-card to send them! They'll be begging for a piece of your Tofurky in no time!

That looks delicious! I'm a long-time vegetarian, my parents not so much.. but they are helping by making vegetarian stuffing, with "no-chicken" broth. And i'm having tofurkey! everything else on our list is veggie friendly, so i'm very excited!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING PETA!
this will be my first thanksgiving as a vegetarian and i am so excited that my parents are willing to make the effort to accomodate me!i am having my first tofurky as will i be having carrots and potatoes. it is hard for them to accept my eating habbits but at least they are willing to have a tofurky alongside them :) thats a start.

my uncle thinks that being a vegetarian is killing our planet and the since we have been killing then for more then 5,000 years theres no reason for us to stop.
Today he invited me over for food but the food consists with meat and i am a vegetarian.
i believe hes very wrong to think that.
i just wish all the meat eaters can just stop trying to find something wrong about being vegetarian and be a vegetarian!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our American Street Teamers!

No way, no way. That looks so good!
I had Thanksgiving with my family who are not vegetarian at all - so I had some mashed potatoes (with margarine), sweet potatoes (also with margarine), some dressing with fake sausage, some homemade bread (baked by moi ;)) and some vegan apple pie from the grocery store. :P
It was good :) Not as good as that looks though

For Thanksgiving, I had Tofurky, vegan mashed potatoes, vegan stuffing (mmm yum!), fresh vegetables, hummus, and apple pie.
It was delicious!
And my family actually like the vegan stuffing more than the turkey stuffing. :)

Yummy!!! I had a veggie sub on french bread. It wasn't much, but it filled me up! :D

this year was the first year out of the five that i have been a vegetarian that i got to make a tofurkey, and it was so fricken good! suprisingly my family members who were skeptical at first really liked it. they even said "it tastes like real turkey", only proving my point that going veg is the better choice!
