Eat Meati Frozen Classic Steak - 8.5oz

Disgusting. Fyi, I call myself a garbage disposal because I'll eat anything and I eat a lot of it. In short, if this was all I had to eat for a month I would reach my weight loss goals because I would choose starvation over eating this. The people who gave it 5 stars must be really supportive family members of the person who created meati and feel okay lying to the public for the sake of this brand because I cannot believe anyone created this, tried it, then thought to themselves "wow, I should share this with the masses". And then someone else agreed to manufacture it? Unbelievable. The texture was horrible and the flavor was worse. I drenched it in sauce I love and still made faces while I ate it, and began writing this review to distract myself from what I was chewing. The only reason I ate it was because it was so expensive I couldn't justify tossing it. I hope no one ever has to eat food this gross in their lives.

Great healthy steak alternative. NEEDS at least five mins of rest after cooking for the best texture. Awesome in tacos, salads, etc.

This is the comment I left on Meati's 'contact' page: *** I have been a vegetarian for nearly sixty years, since the mid-1960s, and during this period, I have explored a wide variety of vegan and vegetarian meat substitutes, many of which I have greatly appreciated. Upon discovering your product, MushroomRoot Steaks, I promptly decided to make a purchase. I followed your cooking instructions precisely and included the steaks in our preferred stroganoff recipe. Regrettably, I must convey that my wife and I were unable to eat even half of our meal, ultimately resulting in the disposal of the majority of the dish. Given the price we paid, along with the costs associated with the other ingredients, we were exceedingly disappointed. I am not certain if we retain the receipt, but I believe we spent between $7 and $8 for your product. Is there any remedy you might offer in light of this experience? *** Now to my comments for Target: This product is awful to say the least. Turns out it cost more than I stated above.. Have you guys tried this?! If you had, you probably wouldn't be selling it.

Not tasty I wouldn’t try

I never imagined I’d find anything close to an actual steak, as a vegan. The flavor and texture was so spot on, my very carnivorous father even liked it and he hates vegan food generally.

Worst food poisoning of my life. My boyfriend and I were vomiting for 2 hours and both almost passed out due to how sick we were. This was a little over an hour after eating this. We both do not get sick ever. This brand should be taken off the market. The entire night was a nightmare.

Wonderful meat alternative. Great as a stand alone streaks and even better in a vegetarian pot roast!

Tasted like seasoned paper. The texture was the worse I’ve ever had in my life. I threw it away after the first bite. Wish I can get my money back

I bought these at Target at a good price. I pan fried with salt and pepper, olive oil and pinch of butter with onions. Add steak sauce. It was really good. I went back to buy and the are out of stock. Target, are you getting more? Please do!

My three and five year olds LOVE these. Don't love the price, but they are so good!

I was pleasantly surprised

Inedible. Looked, smelled, and tasted like canned dog food. I had purchased the “chicken” as well and threw it away without even trying it.

Very very good! Texture, taste, and super filling. Definitely will buy this again!

I'm not a vegetarian; a friend fed us these at a dinner and we were all pleasantly surprised. They have a great texture and flavor (friend rubbed them with smoked paprika), they were filling and didn't give us that typical bloated feeling after eating meat. Please keep them in stock, Target! They are also much more affordable than a good cut of steak.

Reminds me of tuna steaks. Would not buy these again. Even after adding seasoning just not good. Could just be my Louisiana taste buds.

I was excited to try these but the flavor was just gross. I couldn’t finish eating them, and I was starving. I even tried them with different sauces but that didn’t help. I don’t like mushrooms, so maybe that’s why I had to throw them all away. The texture was good. (I’ve been a vegetarian 28 years.)

I have been a vegetarian for over 25 years and this is the best steak I have ever had. My husband and I topped with some BBQ sauce and popped in the air fryer. Wonderful texture and taste!

Hands down the best texture I’ve ever tried. I added steak seasoning with a little A1 and it was perfect!

Been vegan for 14 years. These steaks are amazing. Not perfect but very good and very high quality vs frozen meal steaks they sell. Would definitely recommend. I’m actually Mexican and these taste so much like steak. My family had a bite and they said they preferred it over their meals.

I am so impressed with Meati steaks. I flocked to the store months ago when they first came out. Gluten free is also straight magic - unlike Beyond who abandoned the idea. I recommend cooking them longer than instructed, the other review mentioning they are a bit soft isn't wrong. Aside from the Carne asada version, season it. Can't wait for these to keep getting better. So excited to see them at Target!
