On the back of the carton, it lists “Six great reasons to love your silk”, and #6 is “It’s chocolate – need we say more?”. Nice. Also, from their website, Silk soymilk is certified Kosher OU-D, and it’s vegan-friendly. In the simplest terms, that means it’s healthy and uses no animal products(good for environment).
Hmm, also, they use wind power to run their plants. NICE! I’d love to install a windmill in my back yard, but it would be better out in the country. Solar panels? Too many trees here. Best thing I can do electricity-wise would be to move to a more energy-efficient house and buy an energy-efficient clothes dryer/washer.

I’ve mentioned that I’m trying to eat less meat.
We eventually found Morning Star soy sausage patties at the other local Wal-Mart(we have at least 4 Supercenters), so today I had 100% vegetarian no-pigs-harmed soy sausage patties… with real eggs. Something seems conflicting about that. What was surprising, though, is that the patties actually contain egg whites AND dairy products. There goes the “vegan” status right there(also it makes the meal redundant). It IS still “100% vegetarian”, though, as it says on the box. (for the uninitiated: vegetarian=”no meat”, vegan=”no animal products whatsoever”)

So how does it taste? Tastes like re-heated sausage patties, but it feels like biting into a soft hockey puck. They could increase the outer texture some, and give it rounded corners like real sausage patties. All that said, it is still good. It’s well-seasoned(but not too much), and I feel good about eating it(except for the fact that I’m uneasy about artificial foods).
My favorite sausage brand, though, is Braum’s. Their sausage is very real, not too greasy, and tastes good. Only available at Braum’s stores, though, so small-towners are out of luck.

This has been, my vegetarian-friendly food review.
