The Carnivorous "Store-Osaurus" 
A list of some of the best vegan "meats" that you can get from the store! 

Gardein 

Gardrein makes a wide variety of meatless products that I love, like their chipotle black bean burgers and meatless meatballs.  My favorite, however, is their "Ultimate Plant-Based Chick’n Filets" which I have ALL the time!  They're especially great when paired with some vegan buffalo sauce, copycat "Dorito" seasoning, or simply as-is!  Best of all, all of Gardein's products are 100% vegan!  No animals harmed at all! 

And aside from just "meats", Gardein offers vegan skillet meals.  I highly recommend their "chick’n florentino"! 

Also, although I haven't tried them yet myself, Gardein also has a line of vegan canned soups!

Lightlife 

Another great company that makes amazing "meats" is Lightlife.  Lightlife's products are tasty, organic, and are made by a carbon-neutral company!  They have a lot of options including chick'n, deli slices, hot dogs, tempeh, and burgers, but I haven't tried all of them quite yet!  Those that I have tried are the smokey tempeh strips and hot dogs (both regular and jumbo).  Both of these products are really great!  And the hot dogs are a must for an outdoor cookout.

Tofurky

As one of the original companies producing plant-based "meats," Tofurkey has come a long way from their first roast!  The roast itself has seemed to improve over the years to what it is now.  And their deli slices are super convincing!  With over 7 different types of deli slices, like "oven roast turkey" or "ham," they have any faux "meat" that you'd want on a sandwich! 

And though I haven't tried their other products myself, they do have burgers, grounds, and hot dogs.

Impossible Foods

Becoming increasingly popular at many restaurants is Impossible Foods products.  This is a vegan company that specializes in burgers; specifically, the Impossible Burger! 

But you don't have to go to a restaurant to get a taste of this deceiving food!  Their products are also available at grocery stores where you can buy it already formed as patties or shape your own.  They also make a variety of other "meaty" foods like meatballs and breakfast sausages that are really good too!  They're just like their animal-based counterparts, but WAY better since no animals are harmed in the making!

Beyond Meat

Beyond Meat is another well-known company for vegan "meats" that makes a wide variety of products.  There's the famous Beyond burger, but other less well-known options are their sausages, "beef" crumbles, and meatballs amongst others!  All of these can be used to prepare some of your favorite meals while still being kind to our animal friends!  It's a win-win!
