Tofurky ®

A Delicious Vegetarian Feast
Good News For Vegetarians & Turkeys . . .

"Finally, vegetarians have a bona fide holiday centerpiece that is all their own. They don’t have to settle for second best anymore" was how one satisfied customer described it.

Whether you are seeking to offer a meatless option for a portion of your dinner guests or are planning a complete vegetarian feast, Tofurky ® will satisfy and amaze all who try it.

Tofurky-A Delicious Vegetarian Feast

Click here for complete Tofurky cooking instructions.


Tofurky ® is a pre-cooked vegetarian feast designed to be the delicious centerpiece of your holiday or everyday meal.  Made from a revolutionary tofu-wheat protein blend, Tofurky is known for its incredible, turkey-like texture and flavor.   Since it was first marketed in 1995, Tofurky has been America's original and best selling alternative to turkey.  The Vegetarian feast consists of four parts:  one Specially Seasoned Stuffed Tofu Roast, four Hearty Tempeh Drummettes, fourteen ounces of Tofurky "Giblet" Gravy and a set of two WishStixs made from Tofurky Jurky!  Each feast is 100% vegan, cooks in about 40 minutes, serves four and tastes fabulous!

 

Stuffed Tofu Roast

At the center of the Tofurky Feast is the Stuffed Tofu Roast.  The outside of this round roast is made from the tofu-vital wheat gluten mixture that can be carved into thin, delectable slices.  Inside the roast is filled with our own wild rice-bread crumb stuffing.  So simple to prepare, the thawed, Stuffed Roasts are basted once with soy sauce, orange juice and your favorite sweetener, wrapped in tin foil and baked at 350F for 40 minutes.  That's all there is to preparing a vegetarian roast that will amaze and satisfy both the skeptical carnivores and enthusiastic herbivores at your table.

Tempeh Drummettes

Since nobody lives by "white bean" alone, we have included these Tempeh Drummettes for "dark bean" lovers as well!  We weren't limited by the anatomy of an animal here so we decided with Tofurky Vegetarian Feast, everyone (four people) deserves a Drummette!  Made from grated soy Tempeh, wild rice, textured soy protein and cranberries, Drummettes are sculpted into a drumstick shape.  Drummettes bake in 20 minutes or microwave in about 2 and are many people's favorite part of the feast.

Tofurky "Giblet" Gravy ®

This rich brown gravy is the perfect topping for the sliced Tofu Roast and Tempeh Drummettes.  Made with unbleached flour, expeller pressed canola oil, natural flavors, herbs and spices, this gravy is then packed with diced, Tofurky cubes or "Giblets."  This gravy, which is also sold separately, makes an excellent topping for potatoes, rice or other side dishes any time of the year.  It can be heated in a saucepan, microwaved or even boiled in its pouch, there is nothing more to add!

Now with WishStixs! ®

To begin your feast, we have included 2 Tofurky WishStixs in every box of Tofurky!  Made from our new, Tofurky Jurky, these stixs are meant to add a little bit of fun to your meal.  Gather 2 to 4 folks, have everyone take an end, make a wish and pull!  With Tofurky WishStixs, everyone has already won because no animal was sacrificed in the making of this product.

TOFURKY DINNER, TESTIMONIALS

APRIL 8,1999

We tried our first Tofurky for Easter and really enjoyed it. The leftovers are great, too. Thanks for developing a delicious product that lets us keep eating the kinds of foods we have been choosing and still have holiday traditions. I’m glad to learn from your website that you make deli slices; I’ll be looking for those at our Wegman’s store.

April 5, 1999

To whom it may concern: I just wanted to let you know my husband and I tried the Tofurky dinner (Tofurky, Drummettes, and gravy) yesterday for the first time. We loved it and will purchase it again when our natural food store has them restocked (New City Market—Des Moines, Iowa). Thanks for creating a great product!!!

P.S. I became aware of the product through PETA and Vegetarian Times "highlight marketing" approaching last Thanksgiving.

Very satisfied customer


March 27, 1999

Dear Turtle Island:

I have used and enjoyed your products for several years… ever since I spied your organic tofu on the supermarket shelf. I bought the whole tofurky feast for one Thanksgiving and we enjoyed it very much. I’m glad to hear about the new Tofurky slices and will look for them in the deli section. What I am writing about is your gravy. It is heavenly! As far as I can tell there are no good vegetarian gravies available that I have found and enjoyed as much as yours!

My eyes must read through Freudian glasses. When I first looked at this, I thought I saw, "I'll sway away from it.

"Expeller pressed canola oil" sounds downright pornographic.

Then you'll love hearing that before we called it "canola" it was "rapeseed oil" -- used to oil machines.

You have to eat a lot of soy on a daily basis for it to have any effect hormonally ...

You already do. Read the "ingredients" on almost anything you buy. (How do you think soy went from hog feed to a $60 Billion industry?)

Actually, it has more than just the estrogen mimics. The soy you eat today is far different from the soy the asians developed their foods from; and the chemicals they put it through to come up with the "isoflavones" should make the vegetarians' friends, the environmentalists, shudder.

I can't believe that people actually created the product, the packaging, or the recipes with straight faces

They can, so they did. The marketplace will vote it up or down and I don't think you'll see any government subsidies. We'll know when we're in real trouble when they start to win the arguement that turkey shit is harming the environment, the leading cause of global warming, and.... yada, yada, yada.
