Now why didn't we think of Ozy in a pilgrim hat?

I rather like dresses such as the one Millie's wearing. I think DCS does too, if only because it's similar in shape to Lisa Simpson's.

Shame she has such a dislike for dresses then.

As for the Tofurkey, I think I'll pass, though now I've got a good question I can ask my vegetarian friend upon returning to school...

Looks appetizing.


Tell your friend I feel sorry for him.
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

If you aren't going to eat a real Turkey why even bother with a tofu one? You might as well go all out or just substitute a different dish.
Why not bother with a tofurkey?

Seeing Ozy dressed as a Pilgrim/Puritan , He looks as if he is going to say something like.
"(We Thankith thy Lord for thou Tofurkey. In ye Name we Pray).":P

Same reason they make soy "hamburgers", soy "sausage", soy "chicken nuggets", etc. I'm guessing straight tofu gets boring after a while even to people who can stand to eat it, and there aren't a huge number of other options for vegetarians to get their complete proteins. Less so for vegans. Plus if you happen to be a former non-vegetarian, chances are you'll eventually get homesick for your old favorites.

If the science of artificial flavoring is advanced enough to make convincing meat-flavored soy products, there will be a demand for them.
At least its not a Turduckin. *Turkey+Duck+Chicken*
Ol' Marzipan's got a meatless recipe for that, too.
