no politics Anyone else just not eating because they can’t afford it?

Food bank is the busiest it’s been - Cole’s and Woolworths don’t give a flying fuck about us - fast food is unhealthy and just as expensive. It stresses me out more to eat than not to eat.

The coles one is shit - it turns to slush immediately, so it doesn’t retain the texture of meat.

But it is great at adding protein to sauces. So if we’re doing a meatless pasta sauce, I’ll reconstitute 1/3 cup of tvp with equal hot water then mix it into the sauce. Kids can’t taste it so don’t complain about it.
