Can you be a vegetarian and hate tofu?

Question

I was reading an article about a vegetarian who hates tofu...how could you not like tofu?

Answer 1

it took me a while to like tofu

Answer 2

that's like asking if you can be a meat eater and hate venison.

silly question, it's all about personal taste.

i am a vegan and tofu can be so widely used that i think even some meat eaters wouldn't know a tofu dish if they tried it--it all depends on how it's prepared.

Answer 3

People who don't know how to cook with tofu have a very hard time with it. This is because tofu by itself has no taste, it soaks up the flavors of things it is cooked with.

Answer 4

Obviously, yes. Some carnivores love pork and hate beef. What's the diff?

Answer 5

hope i helped

Answer 6

I think you can be a vegetarian and hate or love laods of stuff. Its all personal stuff. But the main thing is to be healthy, cruelty free and happy and share kindness with others.

Answer 7

Its like being non vegetarian and not liking pork. (Ask the muslims)

Answer 8

Is that supposed to be a logical question, or a personal question?  I mean, of course someone can hate tofu!  As for the "how could you not like tofu" question.... I wouldn't be able to say- never tried it.

Answer 9

yes! im a vegetarien and i hate tofu!!

Answer 10

ummm a person can like and hate whatevr they want to.

Answer 11

Um, can you be a meat eater and not like lamb?  Sure.

Tofu is just bean water made into blocks.  It's not for everyone.

Answer 12

Yes of course. You could even be a vegetarian and hate vegetables. But you eat them anyway (or should eat them)cos they are good for you.

What you have to eat are not neessarily what you like or prefer  to eat. Remeber when as a kid, your parents would make ou eat your vegetables even though you hated them? You would rather say banana splits for breakfast lunch and dinner?

Tofu is but just one of many protein sources available for you if you are a vegetarian. Granted it is quite versatile (absorbs flavor and aroma of food marinated with it), with different textures and almost infinite ways you can pepare it. But as with any food, not all people like it and there is no law that says they should jsut becasue they are vegetrian

Answer 13

I eat tofu before becoming a vegetarian.  It is part and parcel of our diet in Asian countries.  Many non-vegetarians in asian countries cook meat, prawn with tofu.  So, tofu is not only for vegetarian. almost everyone eat it.

There are many different types of tofu here and many many ways to cook tofu.   There is tofu dessert too, instant tofu where you just heat up to eat.

I love fresh tofu from the wet market and only get silken tofu in the supermarket.  

I have many tofu recipes at my blog http://www.crystalbyblog.blogspot.com/

but i haven't cover all the delicious way of cooking tofu.

It is always a personal liking whether a vegetarian like tofu or not.

Answer 14

easy its tasteless

Answer 15

I am a vegetarian going on vegan and I absolutely despise tofu. But it's okay because I love soy and most importantly, veggies. I don't like tofu because the texture is kind of yucky :P But being a vegetarian isn't about liking tofu, it's about not eating meat. So I don't think it really matters if you like tofu, just as long as you don't eat meat. Like everyone else said, you can still be a meat eater and not like beef. Well hope I helped :)

Answer 16

me and my friend started being vegetarians together

I love tofu, she hates it.

its..the consistancy that people dont like usually, since it just soaks up the flavor of whatever it's cooked with..
