      There are vegan meat substitutes that are more than good enough for recreating meat dishes.

      I bet Beyond meat is probably a more accurate replacement than worms for your grandmother’s cooking. At least I hope so, for your family’s sake.

        literally just fucking TVP (something that has existed since the 60’s) is perfectly fine as a substitute for most of the things people actually eat, like any time you’re using ground meat you can just swap that with TVP mince and it’s about as big of a difference as between different kinds of meat.

        buddy, there are not vegan substitutes for my grandma’s bugguong, and yes worms are likely to be a better substitute. if duolingo still doesn’t have any of my mom’s ancestors’ languages, i don’t have a lot of hope for beyond meat
