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.

Pat H.


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!

Who needs processed Tofurkey when I can make my own from Carlo3b's recipe. My meatless sausage stuffing tastes exactly like the one my mother makes from Italian sausage. I wouldn't eat it if it didn't. As for the Tofurkey, I'll let you know on Monday.

You have to eat a lot of soy on a daily basis for it to have any effect hormonally and then it's negligible.

One of the reasons I always wanted to be President (all the reasons I've come up with are silly, not good enough to actually become a politician) would be so I could not spare the White House turkey. Always thought that was a pretty silly thing, going through all that trouble just to let the stupid animal go about it's moronic life for no purpose.

Laissez le bon temps roulle, mon cher. Boudin dressing and a rich Claret. Avoid the traditional fifth of VO for breakfast.

you can keep your soilent green like geletanous slop. We're going to deep fry our turkey. Real mashed taters, the wife is right now cooking a homemade pumpkin pie and getting the stuffing ready. But you go ahead and enjoy your geletanous slop.

If they don't like meat...why are they always coming up with "meat-like" or "looks like meat" products? Why don't they just eat their vegetables and shut up?

Tofurky WishStixs Ingredients: Water, vital wheat gluten, tofu (water, soybeans grown without pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers), white beans, garbanzo beans, natural vegetarian flavor, expeller pressed canola oil, shoyu (water, soy beans, wheat, salt), lemon juice from concentrate, calcium lactate from beets, salt, brown sugar, garlic, spices.

I'd rather die than eat Tofurky Wishstixs. "Expeller pressed canola oil" sounds downright pornographic.

SPAM now does turkey too

NO, what SPAM does to turkey is an abomination to all mankind. I've tried this vile stuff and I've got to say I've rather have tofu.

Let me know how that turns out, I've always looked at those things with great interest, but not a great pocketbook.

We're gettin' the whole Bustard flock together tomorrow, and we're going to eat dead animals, in huge quantity. Turkeys and pigs, to be exact.

That is exactly my first thought upon reading this. If soy's so great, why do they go to the trouble of shaping and flavoring it to resemble hamburgers or turkey? As for me and my house, not only will we be having turkey tomorrow and for several days thereafter, tonight we will dine on a lovely beef roast which at this very moment is in the oven, splashed with wine and fresh rosemary. Ah, roasted flesh of dead critters!

They're not cheap, but I've heard so much about them that I've got to try one. Besides, we'll get several meals from it.

Are they TRYING to make it sound noxious?

Brings back memories of my youth - a very traditional Italian lady laid up in a Seventh day Adventist Hospital (a very good one)...
Every night a couple of us would visit (along with her daughter - nobody is entirely philanthropic at that age) carrying salami, cheese, sometimes Pizza up our sleeves.

The coffee was odious as well but that's standard for any hospital.
