Pretty Good

Cut it into whatever shape you desire, steam it or boil it, marinate for 30 and then pan fry or bake it. Great source of protein. Completely different texture than tofu, nice to have non meat options

Good soy protein

I like tempeh and use it in different ways in my cooking. Target has it at a reasonable price so I get this weekly. Much better than tofu and more nutritious also.it goes well with mixed vegetables and pasta so it has different uses which i like. Hope the price stays low on this product, publix charges almost 6 dollars for this.

FIVE STAR REVOLTING

Tempeh is gross and there's only so much that can be done to right this wrong. Buuuuut, i just had a fast 36 grams of plant based protein from a minimally processed food item that lasts a decent amount of time in my refrigerator and sometimes that's all i'm looking for. Look online for seasoning recipes, i just started throwing stuff in until it stopped tasting disgusting. Even better they have a "bacon" version that's already reasonably seasoned but only consider it bacon if you're looking for heartbreak. Never ever eat it without seasoning, breaking down to small "crumble" like pieces and over cooking it in a lot of oil. Is pretty good with some eggs thrown in at the end for a scramble. The people eating large chunks of this stuff and saying it tastes ok are lying to you.

Horrid taste and texture.

I agree with the recent review saying how disgusting this tastes. My family are also fans of tofu and decided to give this try. And we all hated it. And not just the taste but also the texture. I'll also mention we bought 2 of these at the same time so this isn't a case of happening to just get a bad one. We are all genuinely baffled how anyone can like this unless maybe you're a hard-core vegan and try to have a positive view of plant based things. In any case, if you're not vegan but do like tofu and are trying to become a bit more plant based all I can say is stick with tofu... it is infinitely better than this in every possible way!

Give it a try!

I love this brand of tempeh! I prefer the one with added flax seed but Target doesn't carry that. I enjoy tofu, but don't like the prep work and amount of time it takes to cook. Tempeh cooks so quickly and gets a nice crispy edge. Similar to tofu, this doesn't have flavor so you must add spices, herbs and some sort of oil. I add a couple spoonfuls of a spicy thai spice blend + olive oil and turns out divine every time.

No.

I am a fan of tofu - so believe me when I say this - this was the most disgusting thing I have ever put into my mouth. It tasted like hardened vomit. I literally shudder every time I think about it.

Possibly good

This was my first time trying tempeh even tho I've been wanting to for many years. It's definitely an aquired taste and I even though I didn't know how to use it, I would give it another try. I still give it five stars because I think it's a good product but I still need to learn how to prepare and cook it properly. Plus, it's inexpensive compared to animal protein.

Pretty good

Tastes good if you know how to cook and prepare it. If you've never had it before it has a certain taste.
