My thoughts are why would vegetarians want this in the first place. :mrgreen:

I can explain why I would want this.* Before I became a vegetarian I was addicted to the huge hamburgers created at the Road Kill Cafe here in Tucson. I had to get my fix at least once a week. Then I had an angina attack and learned my right and left coronary arteries were 100% blocked. I heard the cardiologist who was performing the angiogram muttering, "How could this be, he should be dead." Later I was told they could not open the blockages (and put stents in) or perform bypass surgery because there was no viable artery beyond the blockage. I should become a vegetarian and hope for the best.

So the search for a vegetarian hamburger began. Most of the veggie burgers I tried tasted like cardboard or worse. I finally found one that tasted like hamburger at the Hotel Congress (across the street from the Tucson Train Station.)

QUEER STEER BURGER
vegan quinoa oat patty, char-grilled vegetables, lettuce, tomato, roasted peppers, goat cheese spread, brioche bun

Recipe for the quinoa oat patty: http://www.quakeroats.com/cooking-and-r ... oa-patties

I used egg substitute in the ones I made.

*If I had been hooked on ham or chicken or bacon sandwiches, the Lamyong product might have satisfied the craving.

And how did my new diet work out? After eight years my cardiologist said, "I am suspicious because you are still alive, I want to do more tests." He found my blocked arteries had opened up and the atrophied artery beyond the blockages had not blown out. It is now 20 years later and I am still here.

Yeah, bring on the chicken flavored veggie ham, I'll try it.

If they got some vegetable casings, they could make vegetarian hot dogs.

The Wikapedia info mentions starred hotels in Pembroke. I don't think that came from anybody who has ever been to Pembroke.
We have one 10 room motel named "Inns of Pembroke". "Inns" is what is on the sign. Across the street is a McDonalds that has,
IMHO, the worst french fries in several states. I think they have a competition to see who can put out the most orders wrong.
There are two other small restaurants that do "home style" cooking. Why go out for home style?

I did not click on, "view hotels." After reading your review I went back and clicked on it. This is what I got.

Two of three reviews are not good.

Going to a more reliable source => https://www.hotelplanner.com/zip/Pembro ... 21#dir-bar

I find "hotelplanner" does not recommend staying in Pembroke at all.

Good thing you have your own mansion at Roger's Corner. :D

Wayne,
I forgot to mention the Dairy Queen and Subway restaurants.IMHO they are better than the others.
The "Inns" isn't over 20 years old. I have talked to some that have stayed there and were not unhappy. They thought they got what they paid for.
The "Mansion on Roushs' Corner" is a 22 year old triple wide immobile home. I taught in 8 school systems in 3 states and this is the only place we ever owned. By the way,it was built using what what is todays standard lumber, 2X4, 2X8 etc instead of 1X3 etc. It has held together rather nicely. The roof has been replaced. We stayed here after retiring because I like small towns and my wife likes Savannah, a half hour away.

Oh... it is the "Mansion on Roushs' Corner." Please excuse my error thinking it was "Roger's Corner." I did not mean to slight your mansion. :wink:

Opps! You just gave away your location. Now we can look at Google Maps and see your triple wide.

Nice triple wide Roger! And the whole property is as neat and tidy as possible. Really nice.

And really nice out building, large and spacious enough for a big Lionel layout.

I am jealous, my shack is 1,000 sq ft and almost disappears amongst the vegetation.

Wayne,
That house would have been wishful thinking of my wife in her younger days. :roll: :roll: :wink: :wink:
Now if you are done spending my inheritance from my aunt that died in the poor house you might show the real thing. :D :D :D :D :D
