Well, fancy meeting you out here too!

I’ll be interested to see what my decidedly vegetarian SO thinks about this (I’m mainly vegetarian but am more omnivorous). We opt for Impossible where available, and it’ll be interesting to see if either of us gravitate to it. As of now I’m reacting to it the way I do balut; I’m fine eating duck and I’m fine with egg, but I have quite mixed feelings about the in-between balut. Similarly, I’m fine with chicken and I’m fine with Impossible faux-chicken, but this new in-between real-but-synthetic chicken will take me some getting used to.
