Tofurious

"a deliciously seasoned and textured tofu scramble" - well there is an oxymoron if I ever heard of one....
2
Weakest I, anonymous I remember.
3
...seriously? this is what you find to be pissed off about in this world?
4
they can use oyster sauce, sliced garlic, mushrooms, cheese, spices and spring onions, or throw some seafood in the dish for a seafood scramble. i agree some restaurants just need to wake up or listen to customer feedback. u know tofu tastes exactly like the ingredients used to season it. salt n' pepper just won't cut it

Fuck you Tofu Eater. You are in the minority, restaurants don't fucking have to cater to your creepy fetish food. They have 45 minute waits by not focusing on you hippies, get the fucking hint.
6
We should all be very concerned about this tragedy. Is there a support group for people subjected to poorly done tofu scrambles?
7
Get rid of I, Anonymous, replace with Worst. Night. Ever.
8
This was worth printing for the word "tofurious" alone.
9
isnt this just an edited version of a questionland question?
10
There are some places that will take the time to do it right, y' soy-eating weirdo. Seek them out.
No, as stupid as I, Anonymous gets, I still want to look at it every week. Not sure why. I just do.
11
You stupid asshole. You go to a restaurant ordering some of that TOFU shit, then have the nerve to complaint when you get a plate full of bland tasteless soy puke? REALLY?! If you're mad, just put alittle salt or chipotle on it, why don't you? Or better yet just nut up & have a fucking burger, you vegan pussy. Not gonna kill you. Typical Portland - sometimes it's hard to tell whether this is even a real city. Seattle is laughing at us over shit like this.

12
Yes, that is exactly why Seattle cruelly snickers at us while we struggle. Tofu.
13
This is definitely one of those "first world country" problems.
14
tofu scramble? tofu chicken wings? tofu bacon? tofu burger? dammit vegans, stop trying to turn your estrogen-filled blocks of mush into things that you remember from your carnivorous days.
15
I know! I don't get how someone claiming to be "vegan" can still want something that simulates meat.
16
Yep that's right if you don't eat meat you should shut your trap and just be happy to have a bland plate of food in front of you. That is absolutely ridiculous if you put it on your menu then it should taste good, if you don't put it on your menu then ok too. I'm so confused as to why some carnivores give a shit whether or not someone eats meat, I think everyone would agree that if you pay for food at a restaurant we want it to be good pretty simple concept; even if it is something you don't eat.
17
Anyone willing towait 45 minutes for a tofu scramble has it coming.
18
The I, Anonymous author has a good point. Since tofu scramble is easy to prepare, s/he should have received a higher quality breakfast for $10 and 45 minutes. However, my experience ordering tofu scramble has been different--ever Portland restaurant has made it properly. I am assuming the cook was new and was unfamiliar with the recipe.
19
Actually Damos A(ssclown), Seattle is laughing at you, as are most of us you jackass. I love how you call people "pussies" etc when you yourself are a total punkass (oh, you've been exposed a few times here). As for tofu boy..............look, find another place to go. And maybe get your estrogen levels checked (assuming you are not female)......you sound a bit emo. Also if you are paying 10$ for an ingredient that cost roughly 2$, well.................I think you can solve this mystery on your own
20
Gotta love how vegan pussies regard anyone who's not them as "carnivores" in such a derogatory tone. I do believe that humans/homosaphiens are OMNIVORES by nature, duh! Now i can understand being just vegatarian - that's reasonable. But the only reason someone chooses to be vegan is for IDIOLOGICAL reasons only! It's pretty much as absurd as people who eat a certain way based on whatever dumbass religion they chose.
21
Bacon n' eggs!Shit on da shingles!!Thats brunch!!![To each their own]
22
You stood in line for 45 minutes and paid $10 for tofu scramble? Then took the time to write this piece of shit article? You are an embarrassment. Grow a pair!

Anyone who actually wait that long to get in someplace for a bit to eat, deserves whatever overpriced crap the place serves.
24
"But the only reason someone chooses to be vegan is for IDIOLOGICAL reasons only!"
'
Wrong.

I chose a vegan diet for various heath reasons, I couldn't give a shit about "animal rights" or any other implied belief structure. So do a lot of the people I know. The second you mention the fact you don't eat animal or animal products you are slapped with the 'vegan' tag and all the boring,douche bag attitudes that are assumed to come with it.
25
You do realize just how UN-healthy you are, don't you? You're just not going to get all the nutriants a human body needs, not from all that soy puke you eat.
26
DamosA, you are an ignorant asshole.
My boyfriend is currently reversing his type 2 diabetes (made possible by years of high fat and meat) with a vegan diet and it's working. Please share what "nutrients" (learn how to spell dickhead) a vegan is missing. Quinoa alone gives you all your essential amino acids if you're concerned about his protein. Why do you care if some don't eat meat? More for you!
Signed, vegetarian

Maybe if you dumb vegans didn't have such painful blue-balls from your severe lack of sufficient proteins, your natural balance would be in check & maybe you all could get some fucking manners. And sweetheart, maybe if your bf had taken better care of himself early on, he wouldn't have had any diabetes to reverse in the FIRST PLACE! Nobody told him to eat like a pig, so serves him right for his shortened life-span.
Meat is like alcohol - in MODERATION it's quite good for you. But if you pig out or eat drink too damned much, then ofcourse you're gonna be in bad shape, DUH!

I'm pretty sure your bf has to take supplements, since he obviously doesn't get everything he needs from his limited diet. I'm also willing to bet that one, if not the both of you smoke - American Spirits perhaps - for all your talk of health.

Btw, i really don't give a damn how you screwy people eat. But it has to be mentioned that veganism isn't really about one's health, so-much as a potentially dangerous idology.

Why are you all so hateful? It doesn't matter if you are or aren't vegan, we're all people so just chill out.

J&M Cafe in SE can sub tofu for eggs in their scrambles and they are typically quite delicious. And if you eat bacon they serve the thick cut stuff that I hear is also very tasty. See, both sides win.
29
Fine. Both sides win.

PJS had the best point. Oddly enough, I was once told similar bullshit about a steak I had ordered: that maybe I had put too much pressure on the chef by ordering a steak. And I responded that maybe they shouldn't offer steak on their menu.

A decent tofu scramble is perfectly easy to make, and shouldn't be a fucking problem. It's just that there's lots of lazy chefs.

Hey I know I am a week late but I need to comment somewhere that the cover was/is brilliant.
32
It really isn't necessary for such hostility towards people who eat tofu. And not everyone is eating it because they're vegan, there are in fact people who are allergic to eggs and still want to eat something scrambled. Not that any type of specific diet should insight such negative and downright harsh comments. How very un-portland of you!

Please wait...
