(Quorn -- had to look that one up.)

Beef and broccoli. (Real beef. But not much.)

you gotta wonder sometimes! I am soooooo grateful for my fresh local butcher that only sources from small farms right here in the area. I just saw an article about a meat company that knowingly processed diseased cattle that affected 9 million pounds of meat. when I go into my butcher it is not uncommon for them to occasionally grab a quick nibble of raw burger. kinda makes you feel all safe and stuff

Quorn is the leading brand of faux meat in the United Kingdom. The mycoprotein used to produce Quorn is extracted from the fungus Fusarium venenatum (can you tell I had to look it up ). I've always assumed it was made from some type of mushroom, so I wasn't too far off the mark. I know they also use free range eggs in it as well. It actually can be made into quite reasonably authentic versions of meat, such as chicken, beef mince, sausages, sliced ham etc.

We started trying it out recently because my oldest daughter has been encouraged to significantly improve her diet for a movie role she is about to start filming - what it's got to do with them I really don't know - so all crisps (chips), chocolate and the like have gone out the window, and she is cutting back on meat. Also, my youngest daughter wants to be a vet, and doesn't like eating animals, so she has been pushing to become a vegetarian (a bad word in our household...), so Quorn is being tried out and for some dishes (chicken based ones particularly, where sauces are added) it works pretty well.

We have had some nasty little food scares over recent times in the UK too, including horse meat in our beef products (not that I mind eating horse, but if there isn't proper control of what's going into our food, who knows what other crap is getting in there?). Suddenly Quorn doesn't sound so bad...

Rooibos in my cup.

We had folks over for brunch - sourdough with pesto and brie, cinnamon-fruit English muffins, freshly-squoze apple pear & ginger juice, coffee.

No Quorn, though. Not a fan of faux meat, and I'm allergic to certain moulds & mildews, and those allergies can cross-react with the Quorn mould.
