I bought these for the first time last week and I liked them quite a bit. They are vegan.

Hmmm...I can't remember if it was Yves or Lightlife, but we bought some for a cookout, and I couldn't finish mine.Maybe it was that we grilled them, I'm not sure. I'm thinking it was actually Lightlife, though. Have you ever had those? How do they compare to the Yves ones?
I have not had the Lightlife ones...I tend not to like their stuff that much, though. However, my daughter said the Yves are not as tasty as Boca...but then Boca are not vegan.
I fried one and microwaved one...and saw no difference in flavor.
Since becoming vegan, I have lowered my standard for taste of convenience foods...these weren't fantastic, but I will buy them again.
Lightlife's "hamburger" stuff is pretty gross....but the "sausage" they make is amazing. I made my dad's famous "Biscuits and Gravy" using this and it was delicious.
Herself, I agree about the sausage. We eat it pretty often.
What I don't like are Lightlife's lunch "meat" slices...I like Yves much better.
is that the sausage that comes in a tube? amazing stuff. the yves version tastes pretty much the same to me and comes already in patties for frying. yummy with pancakes.
yves meat slices all taste like bologna to me though. the burgers are good but i haven't tried the chick'n ones yet. maybe i will now

Yeah, it's the one in the shape of a tube. AMAZING!
LadyFaile, I have never tried their burgers...
Have you tried Yves canadian bacon? We love that.
no i haven't tried that yet, it looks sorta gross, but maybe i'll give it a shot. for the record, the Yves sausage patties come in a package of 8 for the same price as the lightlife's package which i'm sure is enough for at least twice that many patties.
only dif is the Yves ones are precut and wrapped in pairs, so you can make 2 at a time if you want and not have to worry about the rest going bad cause they're still sealed. but i'm sure if i bought the lightlife ones the leftover wouldn't be around long enough to go bad
what about Yves breakfast links? the little bitty whole sausages. any good?
oh my grocery store has this other brand i've never heard of, in the health food aisle's freezer section. they have veggie burgers, drumsticks, etc. expensive but i keep debating if i should try them. i'll have to write down the brand name next time and post it in case anyone here's tried it

Does anyone know if Yves uses GMO's (genetically modified organisms) in their products? I am on this mission to find out who does and doesn't as I'd rather not eat GMO's when i can avoid them...thanks in advance if anyone can help out. ;->
