There is already under construction more perspective chatbot called V.A.I.C (Virtual Artificial Intelligence Character). It is my project. Some of ideas that i told last year in AI Forums – now i see realised in some of bots. But this is far from V.A.I.C… So be patient.. in the middle of 2010 or beginning of 2011 V.A.I.C will be completed.

They have taken Veat out of Whole Foods and Kroger which is where I normally would purchase it. It does not appear on Vans site for store locators since Van has bought Veat. I’m in a delima. The Veat bites do prepare like real chicken and my non-vegetarian love it marinaded and grilled or put in the wok with a teriyaki sauce at the end after browning. It’s a big staple in my diet. How about doing a little scouting about and let me know where I can find this now (zip code 30342).

Thanks

To get Veat, which is hands-down the best faux meat on the market, find a retailer who uses the distributor Tree of Life. This is a very large distributor and many stores use it. Through Tree of Life your health food store can order Veat Gourmet Bites, and also the Nuggets and the Fillets. (They don’t carry the breast, but the breast is still made.)

Veat used to be carried by Whole Foods and a lot of health food stores and even grocery stores. Now it is hard to find. If you are a fan of Veat, call Whole Foods and ask them to bring it back.

Judy and Doug: Huh, well the Veat breast, along with the rest of its merry meatless family, continues to be on offer at New Seasons, my local grocery. At least, they were a few weeks ago, when last I peered into the frosty freezer case of faux flesh. Ernest Saks: sorry to have left you hungry and hanging lo these many months. Not being a spokesperson for Veat® (the above blog entry does not constitute an endorsement, if that detail eluded you) I can in no wise offer official direction. However, consulting the Veatfinder tells me that starving shoppers in Sequim, WA might try their luck at the Sunny Farms on Hwy. 101. Failing that, the QFC or the Safeway on Washington Ave./St. Incidentally, I've been making my own tofu and seitan of late (more on this in a future posting, I suppose) and would commend the practice to your attention, in lieu of imported Taiwanese aniform molded TVP products.

I live in the 98382 zip area. Which stores in this area carry Veat?

Wegman’s also has stopped the VEAT products… we can’t find them for 100 miles!

Love them and have contacted the company. They were bought out by Vans out of LA, so hope they make a come back soon.

c-dawg, I hate to be sleazy by posting with unwarranted familiarity on unrelated topics (or at all) as if I’m haunting your blog, but I couldn’t think of anyone else who would have an opinion on this:

the first time I saw them, I did a double-take. Helvetica? really?!

why doesn’t it make sense? (it doesn’t.)

nice job on the bicycling, by the way, and on the smoking stoppage. hope the commute is a relatively bike-friendly one.

However, as of today, August 27th, 2007, the odometer is at 345.1, which is worth something. Not an awesome number, by any means — it’s mostly made up of 3 mile commutes to work, and short errands around the neighborhood — but 135 miles/month beats nothing. Had I driven them in my very-much-less-than-green car, it might have been $30 worth of gas, but it’s silly to use money as a metric. I’d have exercised less, seen far less of the neighborhoods I pass through, been a less happy person, and polluted each and every inch of the way.
