(Cw probably lots of non-vegan discussion) This is an active effort to start a struggle session.

Don't actually start shit please.
So my take
meat take
is that boneless chicken wings are in all ways superior to normal chicken wings.
vegetarian take
Firm tofu is hands down better than all other forms of tofu, tempeh, etc.
And mash potatoes on pizza isn't actually that bad. Just make it a proper pureé instead of smooshing up a baked potato with a spoon and calling it a day.
Italian food is mid. Sweet food sucks. Acidic food sucks. Savory and sour is where it's at. Czechs are better at cooking than the Fr*nch who think they're culinary masters for making animals eat only butter and using endless garlic and butter on everything. Wine is also garbage. Thick, dark beers (so dark they taste like chocolate and bread) are the optimal way to drink alcohol.
Dunno about the Czech cooking part since I don't think I've had anything Czech besides beer, but 1000% agree.
Czech is the ultimate fusion of Hungarian, German, and Slavic dishes. We've mastered pairing sour foods and dressings with beers that taste like dark chocolate, wheat, and honey with high alcohol and low sugar counts. Idk I'm kinda a chauvinist about our food lmao it's way better than everywhere else
I also like sour plum vodka stuff that is our national drink but it's more for a party shot imo not something you sit down and eat.
Also nothing beats drinking a great beer in Prague near a nice misty river surrounded by dense walkable landscapes of ancient buildings. Only other cities in Europe I'd say are maybe better are Copenhagen and Vienna, our food is better tho
A lot of Czech food is based on sour sauces which works great for vegan conversion recipes btw
Do you happen to have any favorite Czech recipes on hand?
I don't, I usually call my grandma and ask for advice while cooking. Ask me again in a day or two and I'll let you know her sour sauce recipes I'll ask about it
Oh hell yeah, thank you! I cannot tell you how stoked I am about this!!
