Boca Burgers (original) — 

My husband and I have recently converted to a vegetarian diet. I, being a picky eater, needed to make sure that I had some "meat like" products on hand to keep the meat cravings away. I had never been a really big meat eater, but like any diet... you cut something out and that is the one thing that you want most. I bought Boca burgers as well as their chicken nuggets and chicken patties. All meat free and all very delicious. I prepared the burgers one night, on my cast iron griddle. I finished the burgers as i would any normal meat burger and they tasted fantastic. It had a great taste and texture that of the hamburgers we would get in school. Even my 3 year old son couldn't tell the difference (no worries, he's not on a vegetarian diet). I took the fact that my husband went back for 3rds that he enjoyed the burgers as well. I keep a stash of boxes upon boxes of the Boca line in my freezer!

In response to TheBard's comment from Nov 29, 2007 at 8:55AM:

I was shocked when my husband was the one that iniated the lifestyle change. You are correct about meat being on the financial rise. I also feel a little better that there are no hostile or disgusting living environments needed for animals when I'm eating the Boca line. Maybe we won't have so many sick and diseased animals being processed through as "safe for consumption" (shivers at the thought of it).
Good luck with the transistion yourself!

I am an avowed carnivore but my wife and I have recently decided to try and excise some meat from our diet, so we tried Boca burgers and I was surprised to find them quite tasty. With the price of meat continuing to climb, Boca Burgers have found a permeate place on our dinner table. Thanks for the review.
