I'd kill (an onion) for vegan battered, deep-fried onion rings! I have been working to perfect the vegan "long john". I'm not sure if that's the most widely-used name for this poor-man's eclair. It's a raised doughnut, oblong shaped, filled with a sort of boston cream filling, and topped with chocolate. I would dearly love to have a vegan one. The filling is not too hard to figure out--it's a lot like really thick vanilla pudding--but the chocolate topping is challenging. It's not like melted chocolate at all. It's more sugary than cholocately or fatty. Tricky! As for the vegan cottage cheese: how soon can I be there eating it? They’re killing me too, Jesse. I’d kill (an onion) for vegan battered, deep-fried onion rings!

It's really to make cover versions of exotically flavored cheeses, let alone a good flaming one. I don't miss the taste overall of animal products - too many years vegan for that. I don't actually want to eat egg or cream or whatev. I just want vegan versions, pref. that i can get premade or at a restaurant since i don't normally have time or luck for cooking. (and i agree, vegan cottage cheese couldn't be bad either.) i also wonder why more vegan bakeries don't sell vegan german chocolate cake, but i digress. man this post made me hungry. i hear ya - for me its vegan candy bars (esp. a snicker/3 musketeers or other “complicated layer” type aka “Aerated chocolate nougat with chocolate coating”….also butterfinger, caramello - and my main obsession in past, Charleston Chews), cadbury eggs, fried eggs/devilled eggs (didn’t normally have eggs, but as a treat i mean), and the mother of all why-can’t-i-get-it-vegan, the Saganaki (flaming Greek cheese dish, aka served at It’s Greek To Me growing up in Mpls).

I used to love those chips and they don't exist vegan-style! I've thought about starting a company whereby all I sell is hard-to-find vegan products. Haha. Just because it agitates me sometimes. Also, another one is vegan cottage cheese, though a restaurant here in Seattle makes it. They don't sell it outside the restaurant, though. That’s true.

I'll even admit to just licking the gunk off a chip or two back in the day... So wrong, but so right...

Used to LOVE them as a kid... ketchup chips too. If Robert's can make those tasty "Tings", you'd think they'd be able to make a yummy sc 'n o chip... we also need vegan onion rings. I know they aren't the least bit healthy, but when I was preggo the 2nd time 'round, I had the biggest craving for onion rings. I even went to A&W and asked to see their ingredients list. But, I wasn't convinced, and so I didn't get them. Man, I wanted those onion rings so bad it hurt!! I’ve wondered about sour cream ‘n onion chips too. Used to LOVE them as a kid… ketchup chips too.

There's no good reason why we can't have those, and there's got to be sufficient demand. I second that. There’s no good reason why we can’t have those, and there’s got to be sufficient demand.
