Loma LindaPlant-Based - Veja-Links,15 Ounce (Pack of 12)

First of all, if you're wondering, this does have it's own taste, it is not a bland item that has to be totally flavored. It tastes similar to a hot dog (does not taste like a sausage), and has a meat-like texture. These are a softer texture and a smaller link than the SuperLink from same company. I have used them in hot dogs (I usually heat them up first in a pan with some olive oil, ketchup and 1/2 tsp of Bragg liquid aminos to sort of great a more meaty flavor), I have sliced them up and put them into the mix when cooking black beans and rice and it was very good and gave a meaty flavor and texture. I have given them to some meat eating friends who said it was not a bad substitute and said they would eat it again.

Extremely disappointed, will not buy again. I’ve been eating these things for over 40 years, and I’ve always enjoyed them. The most recent case that I bought was different. They were very mushy, and it was all of them. The texture was totally different than it has been my entire life. Does anybody know if they changed formulation? I emailed the company but I got no response. The taste is the same, but the texture is much different.

Vega links are very versatile. I usually cut a singe link in half longways and microwave pieces until they just start to shrivel, which takes about 1&1/2 minutes in my microwave, and place them on a slice of whole wheat bread cut in half. Then I top them with either horse relish and or a slice of vidalia onion for a healthy and delicious lunch or snack. Two cut in half longways and microwaved nicely fill a whole bread slice and can be topped with lettuce tomato and mayonnaise for a healthy option to a BLT. last but not least a link left whole an microwaved until it starts to brown, about 2 minutes in my microwave makes a healthy substitute for beef jerky sticks.

My order came on time which is appreciated but the box was busted open on one end and 3 food cans were dented. That's never happened before and I was surprised to see the condition of my items. The order was costly and and I don't expect my orders to be delivered in such way.

Great

I have ordered this product several times and the quality has been consistent. The flavor and consistency have remained the same over the past many years. This time the flavor and consistency of the product were not the same. I reached out to the manufacturer to see if the recipe had changed and they said it had not. They told me that there must have been a quality control issue that caused the issue and asked me to provide the "Best if used by date" which I did. This is not the seller's fault but the product quality was not acceptable. Unfortunately, I waited too long to reach out to the manufacturer and as a result, I am unable to return the faulty product which is completely my fault and I do understand.

The product is okay but if you don't know you have to open it from the bottom of the can, like I didn't know, I broke several can openers trying to figure it out.

I loved these growing up. The texture has changed since I was younger but it’s still very good.
