Guest guest Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 Thanks for posting this. I have recently been tempted to try it, too. My son loves the Marie Calendar's country fried chicken dinners (no, he isn't vegetarian) , and he also loves the MSF chik patties so when I saw the Gardenburger version of those with the pepper gravy, I thought it might be a wonderful vegetarian alternative for him; guess not! I doubt he would eat it from what you describe as he is very fussy. I may have to just find a recipe and make my own pepper-gravy to serve over the MSF chik patties. Anyone here have one? ~ PT ~ Philosophy is the science which considers truth. ~ Aristotle (384-322 BC) ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~~~> , " artichoke72x " < artichoke72x> wrote: > tonight, we tried gardenburger's country fried chik'n > with creamy pepper gravy for the first time. > > i don't recommend it. the dinky little chik'n patty > was unremarkable, but the " gravy " was nasty! > > i can't remember what i paid for this product, but it > seems like it was over $3. there were only two > servings in the package, so it wasn't a bargain. > > oh well, now i know.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 Hey Susie.....do you think there is anyway to salvage the gravy? Perhaps take the packet or container and add some milk, flour and of course 500 lbs. more of pepper (always gotta do that with all taters and gravies no matter where from). Could one use the packaged stuff as a base and add shrooms and stuff....or is it just that bad?? I definitely trust your cooking experience based on that good ole soup recipe you posted (good stuff)...good good good....tofu and brown rice..who-woulda-thunk, lol. Sorry that yall had a bad meal and the money went to waste, but thanks a bunch for warning the rest of us for those who are/were interested. Very thoughtful...TY.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 oh no!! there is no way to salvage that gravy! it's horrible! lol! might as well make your own from scratch....that's pretty easy to do. some kind of mushroom gravy sounds good. my mom told me she recently bought a new vegan gravy mix by morning star farms at the central market in austin. she said it was in a packet and in the aisle with other dry mix packages. she said it was good. i have never seen that product. i even went to the msf/kellogs website and didn't see such a product mentioned. anywho, gravy mixes are easy to come by, although i'm not sure if they are vegetarian or vegan (i don't buy them). --- _- matrixenos -_ <matrixenos wrote: > Hey Susie.....do you think there is anyway to > salvage the gravy?

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 They sound very good. I clicked the link you sent, but for some reason the picture of the product didn't want to load.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Yeah, I probably just had too many programs running at the same time or my connection speed was having a bum day. *lol* But it does sound like you got a good price for the quantity of the dumplings.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I love Smart Balance spread so recently tried Smart Balance oil. Not happy with this product and plan to go back to olive oil for frying . This oil cannot be heated to a high temp. with out burning. Guess that is a good thing as it is not that healthy to heat any oil to a high temp. Smart Balance Peanut Butter is really tasty and I like the texture.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I use the Smart Balance Oil and cook with it all the time. I've never had a problem with burning. I cook at all kinds of temps with it. I'm not sure what might have caused this problem for you. It is the only cooking oil that I buy. We love it. We love the whole line of Smart Balance products.
