Saw these advertised and had to make a trip to Lidl just for these as I am a person of sandwiches*, like many around these parts are and these vegan “deli cuts” are great. We make all our own sourdough bread (been doing it from well before covid) and sandwiches are a pretty big part of our diet as a whole. This weeks bread is spelt & oat sourdough.
These faux deli meats have all been pretty expensive so it’s nice to find a more affordable version. Definitely going to be consuming this from now on.
These are made from and peanis.
(*This does not mean subs, burgers, toast or anything warmed up, but open sandwiches with some type of cold cuts, veggies & a spread. These are eaten for breakfast, as a snack, meals, they are also a part of festive foods. The bread is often rye bread. We basically grow up on oatmeal and various kinds of open sandwiches between meals.)
Yeah I don’t have the spoons for that which is why I’ve had a hard time with sandwich toppings in my quest to reduce meat consumption. I do a lot of avocado when it is in season and grown closer, but the “cold cut” open sandwich is the staple thing around here so am happy that at least some options are vegan.
Was just thinking how incredible it would be if no capitalism, we would have such variety of vegan food and meat would probably not be eaten much at all. Because it makes no sense. But here we are, in the endlessly subsidised meat production era. It’s the reason the hams and stuff are all cheaper than this and you get like 100 different types when there are literally only 3 different vegan options that I have seen.
