      I don't know. Those look like cheap frankfurts you get at the supermarket. You guys generally don't like vegan food because it's seen as not manly but that meat is near vegan. It's not 100% meat. Definitely not organic free range meat either. Literally from animals pumped full of chemicals to make them grow faster at the expense of flavour. Eat some real meat and you'll never want that Florida Corrections Center sausages ever again.
