I agree! My coop just started carrying this product line in the last month or so.

The chipotle sausages are very spicy and very tasty. And I'm not generally a fan of veggie meat-like products.

 

Thanks for the heads up. I always look at these when I go to WF, but I've never been brave enough to try them. Maybe I'll buy some this weekend.

 

I bought a package of the Smoked Apple Sage today when I was at Whole Foods. Haven't tried them yet (planning on trying them Saturday or Sunday, probably), but I'm hoping they're good since I"m hearing good things about them.

I tried the Mexican Chipotle a while back and didn't like them. I didn't like the texture (it was somewhere between crumbly and tough) or the spices (strange because I like spicy foods, but they were spicy in a way I didn't enjoy). But I'm definitely open to trying another variety because, for the most part, I love anything with seitan/VWG in it. And the apple does sound good. So we'll see. I'm almost hoping I hate them because they're pretty expensive.

 

The apple sage sausages are awesome!! I'm not crazy about the Italian or Chipotle flavor nearly as much but the apple sage work for a tofu scramble breakfast, an easy lunch or worked into a dinner. I like to chop them up, add a hefty amount of hot sauce, and cook them with potatos o' brien. It's an easy, tasty dish.

That sounds really good! I picked up some the other day. I'll have to try your idea.

 

Oh yeah, the smoked apple sage sausages are really good!

 

Well, I had one of my smoked apple sage sausages for dinner tonight and it was delicious!

I think it would be awesome on a bun with some cranberry sauce, but I just ate it plain tonight.

 

I finally tried the apple sage sausages today for lunch. SO GOOD! I can't wait to try the other flavors.

 

Field Roast=Love! I had them today and they were gorgeous! My mum liked them too. Omni father wouldn't try them though.

 

I looked for these at Whole Foods and couldn't find them.

I still have hope though, there is another Whole Foods that has more selection that I can go to. I was visiting a friend and went to the one by her, which is a little smaller.

Good luck! They're delicious and definitely worth looking for. I found mine with the tofu/seitan/soy cheeses/faux meats in the refrigerated section.

Oh that is good to know, thanks! I was thinking they would be in the frozen section. Although I was definitely in the refrigerated section too, got some gardein, vegan cheese, and deli slices, and didn't see the Field Roast brand -I saw a post about their deli slices too, but I ended up buying the Tofurky. My (omni) bf gets the Yves deli slices and likes those, I do too, but wanted to see how Tofurky compared.

Next time

 

I was finally able to find them at my Whole Foods. Maple sage....my oh my. They were supposed to last a lot longer than they did,but I just kept eating some of it every chance I could get. Now I see what all the fuss is about!

Glad you liked the Apple Sage sausages. I'm heading to WF this weekend to get some more of those. I may also try one of the other flavors as well. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

They're pretty inconspicuous, so it's easy to overlook them. I don't know if you've seen the packaging yet, but the come individually wrapped (but linked with the plastic wrapping, like a lot of "real" sausages) and arranged in a sort of triangle with the band around the middle.

ETA: Here's a link to a picture of the packaging. Hope that helps anyone looking for them.

Thanks for the picture! I know everyone seems to like the Apple Sage the best, but I have to say, my usual tastes would have gravitated toward the Italian or the Mexican Chipotle... whenever I do find them, I'll probably pick 2 to try.

I tried the chipotle and really wasn't a fan. I love spicy foods, but it was too spicy, and in a bad way, for me. Surprising since I love chipotle flavored anything.

Haven't tried the Italian yet since I was never much of a fan of Italian sausage as an omni. I might have to try it sometime, though. I'm pretty sure my (omni) husband would like it even if I didn't, so it's probably worth getting since someone should eat it either way.

 

I have tried the Italian. I cooked it with onions and peppers for a very good sandwich. The APPLE (not MAPLE! *geez*) was eaten straight from the wrapper or with potatoes and cabbage. I'm looking forward to trying the others.

 

The apple sage Field Roast sausage is so freakin' good it's ridiculous. It's by far the best vegetarian 'sausage' I've had, and even my omni roomie loved it. Going to cook some more of it tomorrow!

 

I just tried the Italian sausage for dinner. They weren't bad, but I was underwhelmed. Something was missing. Maybe I'll try it in a recipe of some sort that calls for Italian sausage. I ate mine on a bun this time. It was only so-so that way. The Apple Sage is still far and away my favorite.

 

My HFS finally started carrying these! I tried the Apple Sage, and thought they were really good, but milder than I expected. I'm gonna try the Chipotle next.

 

I think the "Italian" suffers from less spices than it could potentially have, still good *in* things though. The Apple-Sage and Chipotle are heaven on a plate however... (Oh, I may have said that in this thread already)

 

The Apple Sage ones are muy delicioso. <3

I think that may be it. It was more bland than I expected. I will try them in some pasta or something.

 

I got the Apple Sage, but haven't tried it yet. Can't wait!!!
