Product Review- The Vegg 

A few weeks ago, I received The Vegg product (a 100% plant-based egg yolk replacement) along with a cookbook to give it a try. At first I was a bit skeptical or more like concerned as to how this was going to work and taste.  

So, today I decided to make some good ol' fashion french toast which I typically use bananas as my "egg" replacement. I proceeded to follow instructions by blending the powder with some water for 15 seconds and to my shock, it started to smell like the real thing, OMG it's an egg! No, it's not... that's was I kept saying to myself, it is not real, this is NOT a real egg. The smell, the look and the texture began to look very similar, how? I am not sure but let's rewind and let me tell you a little story. While I was growing up I never, I mean never liked eggs, my mom was never able to give me eggs for nothing, I only ate them when I couldn't see or taste them, like in pastries and such and so I like to think that veganism was my destiny. Any-who so you can understand my shock, right? okay. 

Anyways, back to my cooking experience. So, here I am with the mixed powder... I add almond milk, almond extract, cinnamon and I mix. I get my bread out, I butter my pan with vegan butter of course and I go for it! 

As you can see in the photo, they look mouthwatering but most important do they taste good? they taste GREAT!

So, here's the question, are you thinking about going plant-based? or just cutting out eggs to avoid cholesterol? or maybe you are done supporting the treatment of chickens. Whatever your reason is, if you miss egg or would like to use a substitute, this might be your product. 

Rocky- I thank you for the product as this was a fun cooking experience but also for your contribution to producing a kind and cruelty-free product for many to enjoy! 

  P.s. 10% of net sales will be donated to Compassion Over Killing until 2014 :) 

Peace!
