So are meatless meatballs, meatloaf, ground beef, sausage sausage, food consisting of finely chopped meat mixed with seasonings and, often, other ingredients, all encased in a thin membrane.

BUN abbr. blood urea nitrogen Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) may not always seem right. Our advice: treat them like a nicely spiced piece of broiled chicken. Add a salad and some sauteed vegetables and you're in business. Keep in mind that some "beyond-meat" veggieburgers, like Gardenburgers, have far less protein (about five grams per patty) than chicken, because they aren't made from soy. Others, like Morningstar Farms, have enough soy to provide about ten grams of protein, almost as much as the meat-like burgers (ten to 15 grams), though still less than three ounces of cooked chicken (25 grams).

The name toadstool is popularly reserved for inedible or poisonous mushrooms, but this classification has no scientific basis. , or Zesty Italian balls with her own hands. Unfortunately, Nate's sodium exceeds the Best Bite limit if you eat a typical three-ounce serving. Gardenburger Meatless Meatballs taste nearly as genuine without excess sodium. Veggie Patch Veggitinos are less meaty, but they might taste like Mom's (if your mother used more breadcrumbs and less meat). "Sausage" & "Bacon" If you like sausage, step right up.

Soy sausage not only cuts the sat fat to a gram (at the most), but the soy sausage chefs know their way around the kitchen. In the breakfast patty department, Morningstar Farms and Worthington Prosage get top honors, with Boca and Veggie Patch a close second. Boca and Worthington Prosage lead the links list, though Lightlife and Morningstar Farms aren't far behind. A few sausages come in tubes (Lightlife Gimme gim·me Informal Contraction of give me. adj.

saturated fat and no more than 400 milligrams of sodium per
serving. Items with more than a gram of sat fat are marked
with an asterisk, but none exceeded two grams per serving.
