There’s still a lot of other whole plant-based foods to have instead! There are plenty of people on plant-based diets without any tofu

To be fair, saying you don’t like tofu is often more about how you’ve had it than tofu itself. It’s basically a neutral base, so it takes on whatever flavors and textures you give it. If it’s under-seasoned or cooked wrong, it’s bland and kind of unpleasant. But the same is true for a lot of foods. A badly cooked egg can be rubbery or sulfur-heavy, but that doesn’t mean eggs are bad overall. Tofu just has a higher “skill floor.” You usually need to press it, season it well, and match the type to the dish. Done right, it can be crispy, creamy, chewy, or even meaty depending on how it’s prepared. I would encourage you to venture out and give it a try. You probably haven’t had tofu prepared in a way you enjoy it yet.”
