MorningStar Hickory BBQ Riblets

Well I was walking through the store today grocery shopping for myself and when Im out I always pick up a package of the MorningStar Chicken Nuggets for my sister (she is vegetarian.) While I was looking for the nuggets a different MorningStar product caught my eye, it was the veggie ribs! I figured since it was MorningStar it would have eggs and milk in it but it didn't! So anyways I was really curious and couldn't help my self so I bought a box of them.

The box came with two riblets, each riblet being about 5 inches long 3 inches wide and about an inch thick. I microwaved them and slid them on to a plate and took a bite. I was really hesitant about these considering MorningStar and Boca can make some naaasty processed stuff that probably isn't good for you. but these were really really good. The texture is like a mix of tempeh and seitan, its perfect. They are also really filling (coming from an 18 year old boy.) I had one and I was all set for the night. The only complainant I have about these things is that they taste kinda salty. When I checked the box I found that one rib contains 810mg of sodium! thats about 34% of your DV.

Other info:
1 Riblet = 220 calories, 3.5g of fat, 18g of protein, 35g of carbs, and 24g of sugar (bbq sauce.) Also has 10% of your DV for calcium and 15% for your iron.

So there is a review on them. I suggest them to everyone!!!

I thought this was about the Garden Burger Brand, those are the ones I had, but I think the company quit making.

You know they taste just like McDonalds McRIb only better. 

I've never had theirs, but now I know I'm not missing anything  :P
It gets on my nerves how they had "Mc" to everything, I remember once way back in the day my cousin and I went through the drive-thru and I ordered for us, putting Mc before every single word so they would grasp how annoying it is, even the ice was "Mc Ice" ha.

I LOVE these things!!! :)>>> :)>>> :)>>>

But they are SUPER expensive, $5 for just two lousy riblets!  >:( >:( >:(

But they are good as an occasional thing, those nights when I don't have time to cook and just want to pop something in the micro instead.  I like to put extra bbq sauce on them.

Have you tried the Morningstar Farms Grillers Chicken? They are vegan & they fit perfectly on a bun. Great if your cooking single. I put barbecue sauce on mine.
