My husband and I were invited to a summer cookout and volleyball extravaganza. Like all good Midwesterners, we automatically knew that includes bringing food for the potluck portion of the party. Unfortunately, earlier in the week due to a raging thunderstorm that took down power line followed by temperatures that shot up into the 90’s (F ) our electric company gave a huge chunk of the state the gift of multiday rolling blackouts early in the week. Fortunately, we got our electricity back in one of the first waves. Even though we didn’t lose any of our food in the freezer (I had the freezer packed with big reusable ice packs similar to these to get them ready for the party) the power outages made grocery shopping for fresh party food ingredients difficult.

Thank you for the review - I was worried it would be too soybeanish but it sounds like if I prepare it the same way I have turkey in the past, the difference might not be noticed.
It will just be me and my son this year - despite he protests I may sneak it in to see if he notices the difference.

Amie - I had an early version of a tofu dog and it was pretty bad - it was all tofu and no flavoring. This stuff tastes like turkey meat, so I might give another brand of tofu hot dog a whirl someday.
You guys are half convincing me to give Tofurky another try. The Tofurky tofurky, that is. We've had other Tofurky products, but none were well received by the fam. I didn't even like them.
That was way back at the beginning of our meat reduction journey. Perhaps it was too naive to think we could go straight from steak and bacon to tofu. Probably.
Now that we're a little more seasoned at this no meat thing, our view might be different.
BTW, Blitzkrieg is hilarious! I want to squeeze his furry little cheeks.
Thanks for sharing your Tofurky adventures on Midnight Maniac Meatless Mondays.
