Tofurkey

Last weekend I was in Seattle, Washington for a track meet and our hotel was right around the corner from an organic health foods grocery store. One evening, I went to the store to try and find a box of crackers. Seems like a pretty simple task, no? But let me tell you, finding anything in an organic health foods store is quite the adventure. The normal brands you are used to seeing are non-existent and everything is completely different! I found the cracker isle, and couldn't really find anything that looked too appetizing, so I continued on my way. We were walking down the meat isle and came across something that we found rather hilarious; 'Tofu Pups' in place of hot dogs, and 'Tofurkey' in place of turkey. I'm not really sure how Tofurkey is more natural than regular old turkey, but hey, what do I know. Apparently someone is buying it, and I guess I'm just not meant to be one of those people.
