Basically the title. I made waffles on Sunday and grabbed the remainder of my already opened and partially consumed package of Morning Star sausages and ended up reading the ingredients. Discovered they have milk and egg in them… Lesson learned again that plant-based doesn’t mean vegan. So now I am shopping around. I’m sad because they were cheaper than others and tasted good.

So what are your gotos for breakfast sausage-substitutes?

PS: I did see an article that they are in the process of going full vegan but that was from a few years ago.

Edit: Thanks for recs so far. I’m gonna go look at the ingreds of my other Morning Star stuff because now I’m scared lol

    I’m a baby vegan so treating myself to a few “meat-likes” has been really good for the transition imo, I’ve heard about the various burger patties they have and feel like I missed out. Freddy’s(a US burger chain) has a black bean and corn patty that is actually really good. I’m gonna keep an eye out for more Field Roast stuff. I wanted to try one of their loaf things for last Thanksgiving but opted for their braut style sausage instead and it was good.

      No, I totally get the appeal of vegan junk food lol. My parents never really taught me how to cook, so I definitely had a period where I had quite a bit.

      Their whole ass cross section of an onion like it’s for shrek always makes me laugh.
