Hi Shrimp, old school vegan here. I can highly recommend sosmix, it's very versatile due to the fact it is a dry mix, you can add your own herbs and spices if you want or it just tastes great on its own. You can make traditional bangers or incorporate it into something more exotic like vegan meat loaf or my favourite stuffed marrow. You might have to go online to buy it, Alternative Stores stock it, or you could ask your local health food shop to stock it. You won't find it in any supermarket though.

Looks like a perfectly tolerable food-adjacent product. In America we often get spicy versions of these, I assume to mask the weird flavor you described. The most common version is vegan chorizo. Like I said, it's perfectly tolerable, but I'm eager to see how it develops further. It'd be nice if these sorts of things found their own identity and focused on tasting like an outstanding vegan sausage rather than a substandard non-vegan sausage. As it is right now they tend to try to work against the "vegetable stir fry" flavor when they should be working *with* it.

[@bbgun061]

I don't understand why someone who doesn't want to eat meat would want something that imitates meat.

[@danielleanderson6371]

@@bbgun061 People avoid eating meat for a variety of reasons. It's the same reason people drink diet soda: they don't want to have the real thing, but they do want to trick their brain into thinking they had the real thing. Plus if you're trying to adapt a recipe to be vegetarian it's helpful to have something you can directly substitute for meat. As a meat eater myself, I eat vegetarian substitutes from time to time to reduce my consumption of meat in a way that still feels satisfying. Eating a meal without a meat of some kind usually feels like it's missing something, to me. I can chalk this up to the culture I was raised in. Other people might be perfectly comfortable eating just vegetables for a meal, and those people are less likely to opt for a meat substitute in lieu of things like tofu, mushrooms, and beans. From a marketing standpoint, convincing meat substitutes are more appealing and familiar to meat-eaters who are curious about vegetarianism.

'impossible burger' credits their great success to a single ingredient called 'plant hemoglobin.' Shrimp, could you please look into this strange red liquid and tell us what's so special about it.

[@MatthewEdwards98]

Haemoglobin are the Oxygen carrying proteins in the blood (specifically in red blood cells), and there are other similar related molecules which also have Oxygen carrying capacity. One of these is myoglobin which is found in muscle and is why rare steaks can 'bleed'. Plants particularly legumes (peas, beans etc) have a similar molecule leghaemoglobin, which is structurally similar to the other molecules. It's role is to carry oxygen in the roots of the plants to allow the plants to do energy expensive chemical reactions (e.g. nitrogen fixation). Due to the similar structure, and shared red colour to myoglobin (which is involved in the juicyness and colour and flavour of steaks) it is likely that impossible burgers are using it to recreate some of those elements.

[@iaodfsh]

It's so weird they use that instead of regular beet juice like other brands use.

[@AtomicShrimp]

The Sulphite allergy is a tricky one for sure - and it's pretty severe when it hits - Jenny has to carry epi-pens and has been rushed to hospital and emergency intubated on several occasions. Wine is just off limits for her; meat products (actual meat, that is) with sulphites seem to be OK when they are cooked - I think the sulphites combine with the proteins in the meat in such a way as to no longer trigger the reaction (in fact it's the raw sulphites denaturing the proteins in the human body that triggers the reaction, so that makes sense). Even my homemade mead, to which I added no sulphites, triggered a reaction the other day. I thought it would be OK to add some to a casserole, but within minutes of eating it, her eyes were all red and swollen (fortunately antihistamine tablets managed the symptoms this time)
