One of my favourite restaurants is a vegan place. They don’t sell any fake meat type stuff. Its all natural, no ultra processed ingredients. Vegetables look and taste like vegetables, they just cook and season them well. They generate incredible textures and tastes with different cooking techniques.

Yeah, let's stop pretending any plant can replace meat. It cannot. Vegan dishes can be very delicious, but in order for that to be the case, they must stay vegetables and not pretend to be meat's bad brother.

as a vegan, i love your channel. i’m the only vegan in the family. my parents live in Moçambique, they have many friends from brasil, and if you know brazilians, you know they can cook meat like nobody’s business ! i grew up eating flame grilled racks of cow ribs, seasoned perfectly, absolutely delicious. and funny enough, i don’t really miss eating meat. not at all. i enjoy cooking it still, i can definitely cook meat better than any other vegan because of how often i prepare it for my boyfriend or my family. i do eat vegan meat from time to time but honestly i’ve had some really good ones, not brazilian cow rib rack good but i have really enjoyed some. i hope y’all who read all this have a good day !

[@DawzeyJ]

Cool story 👍

[@exray49]

why did you become vegan though

[@africalexa]

@@exray49 i did it for health, and to look better in general. the amount of meat i had been eating was damaging my body. i had high blood pressure and was on the way to something more sinister. i’m glad i gave it up, as i’m not at risk for any conditions anymore. my blood pressure is normal and my body is healthy. i look like a different person to when i was eating meat. i’ve lost so much weight and my skin is like glass its so clear, i’ve never been considered “hot” or “attractive” until i became vegetarian. it was like an ogre turning into fiona.

[@chad_usa]

@@africalexa You don't need to go vegan to lose weight. Its a calories game. Doesn't matter where the calories are from.

[@africalexa]

@@chad_usa i know weight loss is all in a calorie deficit diet. although i was overweight, it wasn’t about the weight for me - i just didn’t want it be a dying meat addict anymore. i had heart issues and was on my way to diabetes and a heart attack. my doctors and dieticians advised me to go on a plant based diet to combat my health issues, and within a few months i had no evidence of ever being unhealthy- not a trace of any issues in my blood or with my heart anymore. and not only have i lost weight, i’m muscular and strong with an athletic build now. i get all the nutrients my body needs, i eat as much as i want because it’s all great food. i’m looking and feeling better than i ever felt before going vegan. it changed my life for the better, i did a full 180 and now i’m the picture of health. the meat was making me a sad fat dying mess, and now i know i’ll be living a long life instead of ending up like all these obese people dying every year from eating too much meat. it’s my personal choice to be vegan as well as to be a healthy person who takes control of what they put in their body.

[@andrewshandle]

As someone who was a vegan for a short stretch years ago, I can say that by far the best vegan food is the stuff that doesn't pretend to be meat and instead embraces what it is. I never really understood the logic behind fake meat because it'll never been close to as good, and if anything just reminds people how great meat tastes. Think of it from the other direction, their isn't a market of meat products designed to taste and feel like fruit and veggies.

[@greenfoliage]

Agreed! Not a vegan but I have strong preference for vegetables. There are plenty of dishes in Asia that are highly flavorful, rich in texture, spicy or savory, and still vegan friendly. I never understood the obsession with replicating meat, especially when from what i know, veggies are delicious!

[@caffeinatedpossum]

For that end bit about the flavor stuff, that's mostly because we do live in a meat-dominant society. I for one am a meateater and highly prefer them to vegetables, but that's more of an ASD thing for me, very picky about textures and whatnot.

[@atenindustries1131]

Yes. I like to use plant proteins, like soy protein or seitan, but those are meat substitutes, not pretenders.

[@Artista_Frustrado]

i would eat Meat-based Lettuce tbh

[@OrdericNeustry]

I think a big reason for vegan meat is that it could end up being more economical and healthy than real meat. For myself, I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but I'd absolutely use vegan meat if it's good enough for what I need.

I'm not sure currently available meat-alternatives should ever be served as a steak-alternative. This one looks more like something that would be better as a sort of pulled pork/beef/chicken alternative where the fibres can be coated in a sauce of some kind.

[@joediditde]

chicken replacements are way more convincing than beef for instance. just don't expect to get a good vegan stake. but for instance vegan chicken nuggets are really not that different if were being honest

[@julienfroidevaux1143]

​@@joediditdeThat's cause everything tastes like chicken . Other meat substitutes need to be smothered in sauces etc .

[@nowayjosedaniel]

A big beefy mushroom, seasoned correctly, is a great steak replacement. It is pretty close if you do it right, but without the heart disease and without the shitty feeling after eating too much. If youre in touch with your body, you can feel the negative effects of red meat pretty easily even if youre not vegan and love it.

[@Short-mistress]

​@@nowayjosedanielI hate the taste of mushroom and I have felt more sick feeling on bad vegetables than a heavy meat. God mushy bussle sprouts and canned asparagus had my stomach and taste buds going into poisoning mind set. It might have even been why my back end had nothing solid coming out cause I thought it was something else but that sounds like most possible answer.

[@maxmakesfilms69]

To be fair, could imagine this working well in a sauced up pulled "pork" sandwich perhaps? Something where you can mask the dryness of artificial meat while making the most of the texture, and probably chucking in a whole bunch of spices because plant-based "meats" quite often are flavourless or taste processed.

[@mostneuter]

considering their reactions, you would need something to completely cover the taste as well

[@amanawolf9166]

I'm almost wondering what would happen if you sent it through a meat grinder and marinated the... umm, "meat" in something like apple cider vinegar with some garlic and onion powder, some mustard for tang + some hot-sauce. The main issue I see is that it's not just the taste but texture. As far as the "taste processed" part, that's 100% correct from what I've read. There's an article I read a while back that talked about how plant-based meats aren't that much healthier than their regular meat counterparts. They can use excess amounts of unhealthy flavoring additives to give it the texture/look of meat while lacking in the flavor department.

[@JWPSmith21]

Impossible burgers are honestly better than most actual burgers. My girlfriend and I did a taste test with both, and it tasted better. Obviously if you get crazy high quality meat it'll eventually be better again, but I was shocked by how good it was. Our go to for burgers are usually impossible burgers now.

[@lperkins2]

@@mostneuter Yeah, like a good amount of beef stock. Even then it's unlikely to be _good_ but anything is likely to make it less bad than straight.

[@DudeMcGuybro]

It can do a really good job of imitating ground beef as well. I don't look at this as a "replacement for meat" as much as I do as I look at it as a different preparation of something I already enjoy. I have digestive issues so I can't eat beef or steak very often because it hurts me a lot, so it's nice to have something close to the real thing once in a while, without my physical pain lol.

[@WorivpuqloDMogh]

Lol the guy on the right immediately grabbed another piece of Filet Mignon lol thats just awesome. Nothing beats a good steak 🤘

Hey Guga if you are looking for something new to try to enhance your food, take a look at marinetaste Ciona Umami Crème/stock from Sweden. Would be really interesting to see what you could come up with, especially the creme that is already 30 times stronger than the stock!

[@DrF00bar]

This was really interesting; thanks for doing it. I wonder if there are different ways to cook the vegan wagyu that would make it better. It seems you tried to do it just like a real meat wagyu whereas perhaps there is a different technique that could create a better end-result, even if it doesn't get all the way to the quality of a real wagyu.

Dear @Guga Foods I wish you could try out sumac in one of your steak videos. The reason is that spice is very commonly used in middle East BBQ and it is interesting to see what you can come up with it.

I guess the fake meat needs plant fat. Maybe Guga can add marbling to the fake meat with something like a peanut or sunflower oil based concoction.

[@JokerInk-CustomBuilds]

The biggest mistake with all those vegan options is that they are trying to sell it as a meatlike substance and substitute. Some of it tastes real good, but when compared to meat it is bound to disappoint. Should be marketed under another name and category entirely IMO.... What I don't know, but there most be some marketing whiz out there who can think of some name that makes you salivate while describing what it actually is! What do you think they should name it? :D

[@CommodoreFan64]

There is a reason companies like Beyond Meat are going bankrupt, and others are struggling, as the vast majority of the public does not want this BS no matter how it's marketed!!!

[@JokerInk-CustomBuilds]

Curious, when cooking the ground beef for the side do you take the initial grease the ground beef produces out? Or leave that in, I have always tried to take some of the grease out, curious what everyone else does.

[@mantistoboggan5171]

I always have to get rid of grease. I'm now at a point that I don't even cook my chilli with beef. I use quirm mince and people can't tell when they have it, though I still put diced chorizo in for extra paprika and smokey flavours.

Why did you stop out of curiosity? I'm not vegan but I still care about ethics so I like to find out what issues people find

[@LoveIsVitalEverlasting]

@@Mallchad I do my best to eat mostly vegan/vegetarian for most of the week, but we buy one cut of meat a week to incorporate (sometimes every other) and mostly since I've had my daughter for diatary reasons. My iron levels would drop along with my vitamin D, which there are plenty of alternatives in plant based food but for my daughters sake I don't want her levels to drop too low. I've just personally had a hard time balancing everything in a plant based diet, but it would be easier if we weren't on such a tight budget.

[@Mallchad]

@@LoveIsVitalEverlasting thank you. Yeah I hear people have issues with balancing a diet nutritionally. Not sure how anybody is supposed to do a good job on their own. Vegan food can be really expensive right now...

I live in a place where steaks are not the norm, so I just decided to make a Guga steak a few months back. I got sirloin (a cheap cut but not the worst), used salt pepper and garlic powder... fried in butter quickly on both sides then taken off the heat and used melted butter and thyme to baste the steak till medium rare and the let it rest. IT WORKED EXACTLY LIKE GUGA SAID!!!!, it was amazing and I now have a freezer full of steaks ready to go. I hope you give it a try and ... good luck.

Your side dish looks like something similar we have in my home states, swap out the crust with pillsbury crescent roll, keep the cheese the same and add thick boilermaker chili for the filling.
