Omelette noun
Oxford Dictionary definition: beaten eggs fried and often folded over filling.
Our definition: Omelettes are made from eggs laid by birds (usually chickens) kept in unnatural, confined conditions, more often than not in over-crowded barns with no access to the outside and no natural light or fresh air. Their miserable lives are short, ending when they begin to lay less eggs at about 12 to 18 months of age (naturally, healthy chickens could live into their teens if not taken by a predator, though those rescued from chicken farms don’t usually live longer than 4 years due to their harrowing start in life). Contrary to popular opinion, buying free range is not the cruelty free option since these birds’ lives will also end in brutal slaughter by the tender age of 18 months. NB farms can label their eggs free range if there is access to an outdoor area from the chickens’ barn even though most of the birds in the overcrowded barn are never able to reach the door. Male chicks are horribly killed en masse shortly after hatching.
Buying tofu, on the other hand, is the cruelty free option and if you love eggs, you’ll really love tofu 😀

Tofu is not my favorite, but I have tried it.

If at first you don’t succeed … tofu can be made into anything – sweet, savoury, whatever you like. It is a blank slate so it will soak up the flavour of whatever you cook it with. Maybe you didn’t like it plain? Or maybe you ate what someone else had made and it didn’t suit your tastes? I highly recommend giving it another go and flavour it with whatever you like 😀

I used to like them too, but not so much that I would kill someone for them. Tofu is a blank slate, it tastes like whatever you flavour it with so there’s no reason why anyone wouldn’t like it if they made it to suit their own tastes 🙂

Yes, it gets a bad reputation, from mostly from people who haven’t tried it.
