potter: i totally see your point and it's true. but people still question if vegans/vegetarians can be good athletes and goveg needs to show the general public that what they believe is crap.
i read that article a while ago too. if i understood things correctly he was vegan simply because he felt it was the right diet for him to stay fit but always said that other bodies maybe needed meat. but as seen in this interview he isn't even vegan anymore, fucking tuna eater. i agree. CHUMP
i've emailed clif bar on behalf of the vegetarian supermarket i work for and they said that they are looking for retailers and distributors in europe. so hopefully we will have their stuff soon.
tvp is textured vegetable protein. it's soy, but not tofu. it comes in many different forms. mince, fillet, strips and so on. when i make burgers or meatballs i use the mince of course. i also have tofu. if you want i can try translate the recipe
i think the best is combining the two =) tvp and gluten makes awesome meatballs and hamburgers. gluten and soy together has one of the best amino acid profiles you can get.
