Hi,

see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soy_yogurt


Have a look at the 'External Links' in the wiki-article.

It is heretical to even think such a thought!

:D

This thread is funny! One of the more humorous ones lately. I know it was not the intention, but I found the posts funny and entertaining. Anyway, nothing to contribute except for this comment; carry on.

or vegan Bacon, and vegetarian fish fingers.
I suppose it is more of a thickened goop, but when one is accommodating one should accommodate :)

but I do have to say rice drink is very nice
This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!

My dog enjoys the fake bacon strip treats. I often think vegan bacon looks and smells the same. I'll pass, thank you. :thinking:

hi friend,

i just wanted to add that i would be cautious with the recommendation to use unpasteurized milk and let the naturally occurring bacteria do the fermentation... i would say this puts you at severe risk for contamination, especially if you using conventionally raised dairy. what you can do is either buy a starter culture or use a scoop of store bought yogurt. if you need recomendations for a starter or for a store yogurt to use, just let me know. i also can give you recipes to make vegan/vegetarian versions of any meat product you like, re: bacon, etc.

I am not using unpasturised milk, I could get some but it would probbably be more trouble than it was worth :-(
but sure send me any recipe you have for vegetarian stuff, I enjoy trying new things.
