🌱🍛 We tried MorningStar's new Royal Thai Curry Patty and honestly, we're impressed by how bold the flavors are! Going in, we were skeptical about plant-based doing Thai curry justice, but this delivers.

We tried it pan-fried, grilled, and air-fried—pan-fried with a little oil gave it the best crispy edges. Compared to their regular patties, this has WAY more flavor complexity. The texture is hearty and satisfying, not mushy. Our vegan taste test verdict: finally, a plant-based patty with real flavor!
