Morningstar Farms making a vegan "riblet" now, too.
Advertisements [?]
I happened upon this at my local grocery. I normally don't peruse the frozen section for anything at this particular store, as it never stocks anything new. Anywho, I had to grab some tater tots, which were right next to that section, and this caught my eye. Naturally, I assumed that like most MF products, it would have eggs or milk (or both) in it. Alas, no! Vegan and not a lot of crap in the ingredients list.

The size is about the same, and the ingredients (now that I've checked) are almost exactly the same. The price was $3.19, and there are two riblets in the box.

My review: it's good. It has roughly the same consistency as the GardenBurger Riblet. The sauce isn't *quite* as good, but it's still very tasty. If I had to choose one over the other, I'd go for the GardenBurger brand. But, in many places it's a tough to find brand, whereas MF has become more prolific in common area supermarkets and hopefully they'll carry them in stores near you.

Ingredients:

MEATLESS RIBLET (SOY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE WITH WATER FOR HYDRATION, TEXTURED WHEAT PROTEIN WITH WATER FOR HYDRATION, CANOLA OIL, NATURAL HICKORY SMOKE FLAVOR, YEAST EXTRACT, SOY PROTEIN ISOLATE, METHYLCELLULOSE, SALT, EXTRACT OF MALTED BARLEY AND CORN, SUNFLOWER OIL, NATURAL FLAVORS, CARAMEL COLOR), BARBECUE SAUCE (EVAPORATED CANE JUICE, WATER, MOLASSES, TOMATO PASTE, WHITE VINEGAR, SALT, NATURAL HICKORY SMOKE CONCENTRATE, CARAMEL COLOR, XANTHAN GUM, DRIED ONION, DRIED GARLIC, SPICES).
