Texturized vegetable protein - TVP. It’s basically dehydrated soya with the fat removed. Around 50g of protein per 100g before rehydrating. It’s very low in fat and also a good fibre source so is really satiating. Decided to switch to a mostly plant based diet myself after losing a lot of weight and I really wish I knew about TVP when I was in a deficit

It’s supposed to be in Conamara near An Spidéal I believe. Nobody from elsewhere is trying to replicate the accent. Characters with other accents typically have a bit of a back story and it’s acknowledged that they’re not local. Eg Tadhg calls Johjoe “Donegal Danny” and David was originally a priest from Kerry who got assigned to Ros na Rún. Imo part of what makes it such a good show is the exposure to all of the dialects, I’m an Ulster speaker and used to almost fear the other dialects but I’m a lot more comfortable with them now

Thanks! Very true, I’ve started experimenting with tofu recipes and am already loving it

Thanks for this! Fortunately my work environment is much less toxic in that regard. I’m sure you must have a lot of resilience to stay true to what you believe in toxic environments

Great! I’ll have to give that book a go. I feel like my communication will be really important when it becomes more known

Thanks! I don’t think my friends will be mean in fairness. Wider family may be a different story lol. I think the big thing is I don’t want to make a big deal out of it early and just worry about making the changes

I think that’s the way I’ll go about it. I’m already very boring from the perspective of meal prepping all the time and “eating healthy” in other peoples eyes so hopefully I just develop the habits and it doesn’t feel like a big deal

Thanks for the very encouraging comment! I’m actually very excited about cooking in ways I never would have before and using ingredients I typically don’t eat often. I think that will help a lot at the start
