:drool: I just tried these today. This is positively the best imitation meat product I've ever had. It was a little pricey- I got a box with 2 for $3.54. Soooo good.

My hubby loves these. I like them, too, but they have to be on a bun with some nayonnaise & lettuce. :lick: Oh ya, I pay over $4 for a box. :-/

Welcome to the dark side, April. Those things rock. I throw mine on a bun with potato salad on the side. Delicious!

My husband loves those things. He says he can't tell the difference between that and the "real thing."

Eh, I liked Unribs better. Can't find those anymore, though. The Riblets texture kinda grosses me out, but the sauce is excellent.

Mmmm......Riblets...... :drool: $4.19 per box 'round these parts.

They seem just a bit too real for me. They give me the creeps. My daughter LOVES them, though.

The sauce on Riblets is magnificent.

Yum, I love these. Especially on a tortilla shell with lettuce and shredded carrot. It sounds weird, but its quite excellent. :drool: In the summer, I usually get them on sale for 99-cents a box, and stock up for the winter. :)

I liked the weird texture, it was very very realistic- it made me forget it wasn't real. After eating it I had this guilty feeling, like I had something super unhealthy, and then I remembered it wasn't pig parts!

I had mine on toast with vegenaise. If only I had pickle slices...

One of my faves. I like them on a roll, too, with some soy cheese.

Another good product of theirs is the Herb Encrusted Soy Cutlet (also great on a bun).

Wow, I tried these back when I was an omni who liked faux-meats, and didn't go for it. It was probably the fact that I microwaved instead of baked, perhaps? Perhaps I'll have to give these another go now.

I believe the superior method is "boil-in-bag".

I nuke mine and I love them. I do add extra BBQ sauce though.

i love them also, i think that they have the best meat-like texture outside of the vegan restauraunts that i frequent.

The strange thing is that neither of the health food stores near me carry them. I got them at the regular grocery store right down the street.

I like the texture, but the sauce is damn nasty. The one time I got them, I attempted to scrape all of the sauce off :p

ETA: That's probably just because I don't like bbq sauce *hides*

My family and I love them too, and when our local super market discontinued Gardenburger products a while ago I had a fit. Well, I wrote the customer support for the Grocery chain and I was surprised they actually seemed to care. A couple of weeks later they were back in the store. Yay. I just had one for dinner.

I love them, esp on a bun. I just wish they came with more sauce, or I could find a bbq sauce that tastes similar. None of the bbq sauces I've tried are as sweet and yummy as the riblets sauce.

I love them too, they are great! We eat them straight up with mashed potatoes, vegan gravy and corn! Yummmmmmm!!!
