A friend made cherry wine and sent us a bottle. Skål!

The only veggie burger I've ever had, that's actually tasty...and I've tried many of them. And you can't go in with the mindset that you're eating a "burger". Gotta get that notion out of your head if you're going to enjoy it. It's essentially vegetarian junk-food; loaded with salt, grease and "spices" (aka MSG). At least, they were the last time I had one.
You'd probably be better off eating an actual burger, health wise.

I made my own veggie burgers a while back, using pumpkin as the base for the patties. It worked pretty well, but I did have to use a fairly strong sauce to punch up the flavor. But it is possible to do it without loading the food with grease.

That looks a bit like the thing I've eaten. Apart from the green blob and leaf.

I think it will be great to have a self steering car. The wife will never drive on one of these trips. She'd rather sit around while I z-out for a while. But once those self driving cars arrive, I'll go anywhere. (emphasis is mine)

Pumpkin patties, eh? Sounds...interesting.
If I were to ever go veg again, I think I'll probably stick to grilling portobello mushrooms, and make "burgers" out of those.
They're pretty good.
