Here's a new product for all the vegetarians out there, but right off the bat we have a problem with this one: Aren't most people choosing a vegetarian diet for health reasons? Well, one look at this ingredient list with all the unpronounceable items and you might be thinking this product is the antithesis of "healthy." Frankly, when we think of a vegan or vegetarian diet, we don't think of chemicals. The taste of the cakes is very bland, with only a hint of teriyaki (in this case, probably a good thing) and you can't taste the ginger. There's much more of a rice taste than vegetable; with carrots as the fourth ingredient, they seem to be making an appearance for color only -- perhaps if they renamed the product "Rice and Soy Cakes," it would be more realistic. Also available in Southwestern Style. Retails for approximately $3/4 cakes (9.06 oz.).
