I've had one of them. DOES NOT TASTE LIKE CHICKEN.
But kudos for trying. We should continue the effort.

Do you think fake chicken as a hunger solution is aimed at you? I'm pretty sure a starving person could care less if it doesn't actually taste like chicken, as long as it's food, and it's enough to provide sustenance.

edit: and safe obviously. I wouldn't like a "hunger solution" to somehow just be cancer in a paste.

Once, meeting some friends in Melbourne city one night, they'd stopped off at a place called Lord of the Fries and gotten some "chick'n" nuggets. And they swore blind that it was real chicken no matter how much I tried to convince them that Lord of the Fries is 100% vegetarian. Mind you they were drunk.

I had one of their "burgers" before noticing the big sign saying there vegetarian. No sir, I don't like it. Good chips and fantastic sauces, though. Had an limited time "Obama Sauce" which was jalapeno, ketchup and pineapple. Was awesome!
