they are obviously vegan substitutes given the menus opening statement......just like all the deli meats in subway are turkey based these are vegan, duh!

Your Subway comment is a pile of turkey. Several are turkey based, but most meats are exactly what they say they are. See nutrition facts at the link below.

I just spent some time parsing the Sweet Tomatoes menu and ingredient list. The items that are vegan/vegetarian are specifically identified. The menu items that list meats, eggs, etc. have those ingredients in them.

Hmm. Probably not. My wife has talked about trying it several nights a week; our late Dad's would probably roll over in their graves. I want to live as long as I can in TV once I get there, but I AM A MEAT LOVER. :mmmm:

I agree as well. Unlikely to be enough folks who would be able to financially support such an enterprise. I am a carnivore also, although I certainly enjoy vegetables as well.

Please forgive me friends. I drank soy milk exclusively until almond milk. I eat tofu -- the sponge looking thing. Ginger tofu ice cream is good. But it's okay. I also ate a hamburger and fries for lunch today.
