Don't go broke buying small veggie burger patties from the store. Build your own American portion sized veggie burgers. This recipe is not for vegans but rather for the discerning connoisseur who appreciates a tasty homemade veggie burger. I modified this recipe from Jolinda Hackett's Spicy TVP Burger http://vegetarian.about.com/od/veggieburgerrecipes/r/spicytvpburger.htm , so please don't let me steal any credit for originality.

What you will need:
1.33 cups of TVP (Textured Vegetable Protein) You can buy this in bulk at your local health food store. TVP is a soy based processed food that isn't 100% healthy for you, so it should taste good.
20 ounces of Chicken Broth Although I should use vegetable broth to remain veggie, I figured why waste the bouillon I already have in the cupboard. The chicken's dead, don't waste 'em.
2 eggs beaten Sorry vegans, just be glad I don't include an animal cruelty joke about beating eggs at this point.
1 big jalapeno minced
2 cups white flour
0.5 onion minced
0.5 cups of chopped mushrooms
3 Tbsp of your favorite BBQ Sauce Great BBQ sauce is rarely vegan due to use of animal products.
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
oil for frying pan I used a spray oil, but you could use bacon grease since we're not being very veggie.

Where you've gone wrong is in making the mistake of equating kindness and compassion with weakness. I realize it's a bit threatening that there are people out there who actually think about the effects of their actions, but you might try it sometime - you might find a source of that pride and self-worth you are so clearly lacking. I'm sure once you grow up a little and learn some self-esteem you won't feel such a need to be quite so transparently offensive.
take it easy! Some people just don't get it. As an omnivore I try to avoid eating animal protein that comes from factory farms or any other place that abuses livestock of any kind from chickens to beef cattle
I don't have a moral problem with being a meat eater but, I certainly have a problem with unnecessary cruelty in the acquisition of that food source.
That's where my conscience is and I can appreciate you for the stand you take for your conscience.It isn't easy to be different nor is it easy to make a dietary change as drastic as going vegan. Good for you!
I tried the vegetarian dietary change back in '73 and lasted for two months, my downfall was Thanksgiving dinner. Somehow spuds, corn and squash just didn't get it. Maybe it's a cultural thing, maybe spiritual, or maybe just good old compassion for a fellow being, either way stick with your ethics.
