Can You Spot the Real Meat?

Page 6 of 6

Answer: Believe it or not, that sad-looking little burger in the first shot is the real one. I think I'd prefer the vegan version...

Last but not least, ribs. You'd think -- with bones and all -- that it would be easy to spot the faker here. But the clever use of seitan makes it tough to tell sometimes...

Answer: Yes, it's the plate with the better-looking corn-on-the-cob -- the second photo -- that holds the fake, seitan ribs.

Now that you're armed with the skills to tell real meat from fake, go out there and protect our Fourth of July barbecues and backyard grill-outs from commie impostors, patriot! Make Uncle Sam proud.
