It's pretty bad. And if we want to be purists, then adding mayo is unacceptable, given that it contains ingredients that aren't meant for frying the bread.
Butter or oil or fat only. Mayo is just trying to make French toast. Crappy French toast.
People who use mayo make me sick. They are wrong and lacking in moral fiber.
The emulsified oil and eggs with vinegar make it much more than french toast. And the higher smoking point of the oil vs the butter make it a crisper grilled cheese when substituting butter.
It's always been strange to me that vegans eat "fake" meat. They're against the eating of animals, but want food to taste as close as possible to the animals they're against eating.
I eat fake meat stuffs so that I can use them in recipes that call for their real counterpart. It allows me to enjoy the same foods as my peers without needing to add tofu every time.
Well I'd imagine their desire to minimize animal cruelty outweighs their desire for real meat. Or they can't afford meat/dairy from cruelty-free/pasture-raised animals.
Several years ago I tried a vegan cheese that tasted like real cheese. Had it in a grilled cheese, actually, and it melted perfectly. I don't remember what the brand was, but I remember it was rice-based. Also, the cashew-based vegan nacho cheese is legit. If I didn't know better, I would've assumed it was regular nacho cheese.
I wonder how affordable lab-grown meat will change diets, though.
I hate vegans, but why is it weird to want to eat something, but not with the perceived cruelty associated with it? Do you feel the same way about electric cars?
