After I was forced into it after gastric bypass surgery, I know I will always eat meat as long as it is available to me. After three months without meat, and the next phase was "soft" poultry/fish, a chicken Vienna sausage tasted as good as a ribeye.

Had a black bean burger for lunch at Huey's in Southaven today that was awesome. Grilled portabellas and grilled eggplant are both excellent meat substitutes.

Both are more filling veggies and can (sort of) replace meat. I tried the vegetarian thing (for 2 weeks) and only made it due to avocado sandwiches and eggplant parmesan!

I live in Jackson and hadn't eaten there in several months. The food and service is always excellent, but it constantly improves. Thanks for the wonderful meal. The grilled and chilled chicken salad is one of my favorites. We ate at Crescent City in H'burg on Monday. I live in Jackson and hadn't eaten there in several months.
