DyminMonique says:

Anything with Mac and “cheese” and potatoes… I’m sold😋😋yummy!

DyminMonique says:

I’m sorry.

Ay_Its_Bella says:

Why tho? There is legit no reason to hate her.

BNisha 04 says:

But does it taste like 🧀

Mop Buckets ! says:

Stouffer’s Lasagna i _already_ hated you

Jessica Williams says:

@BNisha 04 I’m not vegan and I have made it and it is close. I can’t have dairy so I look for dairy free recipes. It’s crazy when I first started looking, I was a die hard carnivore. Now I am down to rarely eating chicken or fish, lol! I know I will never do vegan though, I love poached eggs too much.

Aubrey Rispoli says:

I’m not vegan but I do love watching vegan recipes 😂 It’s interesting. I’m happy Tasty is accommodating vegans more as well!

Mayo Raps says:

Aubrey Rispoli so true

Princess Caty says:

bacara18 stop trolling and get a fucking life.

No And no says:

same. im not vegan or vegetarian but these look good

Watcher For truth says:

Aubrey Rispoli same 😂

SuperRainbowHusky says:

Awwww thank you you are so nice 😊

Laura T says:

I’m not even vegan but some of these look like they would be super delicious

Reed says:

Well vegans aren’t aliens and these are just food.

Kylee Brooks says:

leuglyartist Who said Vegans were aliens? You just took her comment to another level

Blue Too says:

Are you saying that raw meat is delicious. Do you guys not season your meat with spices (plants) just like vegetables….

Mop Buckets ! says:

Laura Tenney that’s why they called it vegan friendly, vegans are able to make it just as anyone else can

Malorie Grubbs says:

You should give it a try! Save animals, save the planet, and improve your own health.

Bigs says:

the veggie curry is delicious. I usually make it a little differently but its still great.

Amber S. says:

Oh yess! Nice jobs guys I’m a transitioning vegan so new ideas are always great!

Lovelene2105 Le Blanc says:

Thank you for being an actual positive commenter.

Mop Buckets ! says:

Mrs. S i hope you found luck with your veganism!

anotch acado says:

@NyanC4t
You are what you eat!

Dr. says:

Look up Peaceful Cuisine. That guy makes amazing vegan food.

Lilly The Person says:

@NyanC4t you are what you eat 🥰

LeArtiste D says:

Not gonna lie, I have no intention of giving up meat and dairy products but I do like how veganism has become more creative lately.

Lemon says:

Nicole you are not a fucking lion so stop comparing yourself to one. That is one of the most stupid arguments against veganism ever. You are making yourself look dumb.

K A Z A M 420 says:

Same here

Anwen says:

Marin Riv well not really, cuz with every person going vegan, roughly 200 animal lives are spared, not to mention the countless animals saved given that animal agriculture is the leading cause of most environmental damage. If we’re against animal abuse, but support the biggest cause of animal suffering in the world, being the production of meat, dairy, eggs etc, (once we know how much they suffer) then we’re being hypocritical.

Dragon Animations says:

Ly Ly Mai
They taste amazing, I recommend trying the food sometime

Pika Pika says:

Marin Riv supply and demand. less demand, less supply. common sense.

Ayen Geu says:

Now I know what to make if I ever have vegan friends over! 😊

Rena says:

Or if you ever become vegan 🙂

jay does japan says:

you’re a good friend

Lacey says:

This is so precious thank you for making my day

Daisy’s Life says:

Ayen Geu awe that is so sweet !!

LXLLQX says:

Same! Now I just need to get some friends☺️

Luke Fernihan says:

This will be the only time Tasty won’t have 4 tons of cheese in their pasta!

Math File says:

Yes.. Absolutely.. 🤣

Brishti Dutta says:

😂😂😂lol

PotatoDog says:

Luke Fernihan or butter haha

SuperRainbowHusky says:

LOL

Satyakireet Kesanasetti says:

Yes lol I show my dad some recipes and when ever they put so much cheese 🧀 he puts disgusted face and doesn’t let me cook whatever they just did lol

Healthy Recipe Channel says:

I am not vegan but I do love some vegan foods. Especially stuff with Hummus or chickpeas. Chickpea Salads are so good, with olive oil, lime juice and fresh minced parsley or cilantro. 😋😋

danny harrity says:

Plant based food*. Vegan is a way of life

Amanda H says:

I love a tin of chick peas mixed with feta , parsley , garlic and lemon

ADerpyReality says:

I like being omnivorous. If it doesn’t have soy or stevia I’ll probably like it. Vegan, vegetarian, mix, carnivore.

Penguinstudios123 says:

Hannah Schaffer lmao no. Seriously if you look aboutnyoull see omnis sayinG they eat meat more than vegans saying they’re vegan – OR you’ll see omnis saYING ‘vegans say they’re vegan a lot’.
Honestly I see way more ‘bacon’ comments, which screams “I eat dead pig” don’t you think?

Mop Buckets ! says:

Healthy Recipe Channel *plant-based foods veganism is a lifestyle.

Rhea Majithia says:

If anyone wants to turn vegan, you should check out indian food. We have a lot of good tasty vegan food which is not just veggies and beans 🙂

SuperRainbowHusky says:

Yay!

Samantha Tanyamol says:

Facts!!!

Ascetic Cat says:

I do to 🙂

SuperRainbowHusky says:

😊

Abay Singh says:

Yes. That’s true. But indian cooking has very high margin of error, meaning it’s very delicate cooking plus western kitchens are just not for indian cooking.
I cook foods of many ethnicities, and boy do I have to keep my antennas up when cooking indian. But I must say, if cooked properly with right spice balance, nothing tastes as good as Indian food

nic soph says:

I have made the vegan shepherds pie before and it can get a little peppery so if you don’t really like a peppery flavor add less that the regular amount 😊

Charlie says:

Monica Briones thank you for the tip 🙂

Seb Co says:

Should’ve listened to you! I just made the shepherds pie and it’s waaaaaaaay too peppery. At least that’s what I and the rest of the family thought. Might leave the pepper out altogether next time.

Samir C. Cat says:

I tried a brownie recepie (I think it was??) and it was 4 times more salt than eatable in Tasty’s recepie. I think some chef there has a bit wacko tastebuds…

Salem Curtis says:

Their beef stroganoff recipe had too much pepper too hmmm 🤔

Mop Buckets ! says:

Monicaaa Brionesss thanks for the tip! 🙂

I think its destiny says:

You should have just named it “9 great dinner ideas”. People wouldnt notice they are vegan and there would be no stupid bulkshit comments 😉

No says:

If you think about it most people watching this are looking for vegan recipes

Eunice says:

Then someone would have said: You should have named it 9 delicious vegan-friendly dinner lol

WhErE's Da RiCe?!?! says:

You sure?

Maria Jose Gallego says:

Yeah, but vegans wouldn´t watch it

SuperRainbowHusky says:

BUT THEN VEGANS LIKE MY WONT KNOW IF ITS VEGAN OR NOT

M M says:

What happened? Why is the comment section actually full of sensible comments?! Since when is this a thing?

Andrew Tian says:

Alpenmac 4 it was sort of a thing a while ago, the comments were actually really positive!

Golden Sunshine INC says:

Does the music sounds like it was taken from The Sims only to me?

darkscorpio8166 says:

weirdly reminded me of coldplay

Jordan Brackin says:

Felt the same feeling. Sims and coldplay lol

Smy says:

No, because my sims are constantly in distress

Kali Ferguson says:

@darkscorpio8166 Sounds just like Clocks

Breanna Fishburn says:

@darkscorpio8166 yeah pretty sure it’s partly taken from viva la vida

a says:

That jackfruit is too ripe, we usually use the unripe ones for cooking so it won’t be too sweet and rubbery

Blaze says:

Then use the Unripe ones

S L says:

Thanks for the tip! @anggit

Judy Lopez says:

True. Its the young, unripe, young ones you make for savory dishes. This person doesn’t know how to eat, use, and treat a sweet, ripe jackfruit. I’m so embarrassed. What a shame, really?

Nandini Mallick says:

Absolutely they butchered it. Made me cry.

flat boy man says:

That vegan mac and cheese looks better than non vegan mac and cheese. And that’s a fact.

Not Bothered says:

They literally look the same tf u mean

Vanessa Bazil says:

James Boone well there is vegan butter and cheese. And we could substitute the chicken for beyond meat sausage 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

Story Daniels says:

it tastes like chicken noodle soup but its still delicious !! lol

Aware Bren says:

Shut up you know its nasty

SuperRainbowHusky says:

That’s true

Olivia Alves says:

For those who may not understand why many vegan recipes replicate their non-vegan counterparts: most vegans do not grow up on a plant-based diet. Many still have fond memories of recipes their parents/grand-parents used to make that contained meat and/or dairy (e.g. pulled pork sandwiches, mac and cheese, lasagna alla Bolognese, etc). The idea is to replicate that same feeling of comfort and tastiness without the meat; as a cook, I can tell you that the most important part of (for example) Bolognese sauce is not the meat, but the seasoning, the spices, the tomatos, carrots and celeri. If you keep these and toss the meat you’ll still get an aromatic, richly flavoured sauce.

Karthika AS says:

It’s not about the meat so let’s stop killing our dear friends! Is anybody going to congratulate me for turning vegan?

FoilzNen says:

I actually want begin 9 months ago, maybe. And I still am

AmiiBean says:

Olivia Alves hmmmmm yum 🙂

SuperRainbowHusky says:

I grew up vegan

Olivia Alves says:

Btw guys, I have learned that meat does indeed play a good part in the making of the Ragú alla Bolognese. However, that was not the point of my comment. The point I wanted to convey is that dishes are solely social constructs bounded by cultural and geographical factors. Words and their meanings, more specifically the meanings we attribute to words, are very much arbitrary and yet also bounded by many factors as well. Attacking vegans for replicating foods is just nonsense.

BlueAngel2397 says:

I’m not even vegan but these look amazing. I will definitely try all of them. Love it!

Arshiya Mohamed says:

Before watching this: HOW DO VEGANS SURVIVE???
After: Let’s Become VEGAN!!!! WoooHooo

AmiiBean says:

Mush easier than you think.
Now what I’m about to say goes with ANYTHING. Not just Veganism.
The more you eat of something. Then more you crave it.

Polish Surprise Eggs says:

from now on being vegan is😋 tasty like from poland 🇵🇱
