Boca Meatless Chili


Quote  |  Reply
OMG, so good!  And if it's meatless, then what the hell is in it, because it tastes just like meat.

Hooray to Boca, and I will now be purchasing, everything Boca!  :)

It has Texturized Vegetable Protein (aka soy).

It's good, but ridiculously expensive. 

'Tis Delicious!   No?  Our freezer is filled with Boca items.  Low in calories, very filling and the price isn't too too bad. :)

$4 (at least in Boston) for 10 oz of chili is pretty bad when you're a student who lives paycheck to paycheck.
I have two of these in my freezer right now. They have been in there for weeks......hmmmmmmmmm I may have to try one of them later.
I love the chili but I didn't like their burger patties.  I love that the chili is nice and spicy!

DM, I'm in the boston area too...you can make your own.

I could make my own, but my cooking skills are terrible and my time is very limited.

I buy this canned veggie chili in the Wild Harvest section at Shaws that comes in a 15 oz can for like $2. Much cheaper, and paired with some salad is fairly filling. Granted it's 300 calories in a 15 oz can vs 150 calories for the 10 oz of Boca chili, but I'm maintaining so that's fine. Also I'm single so I don't like to have excessive amounts of leftovers. If I made a pot of chili, that would last forever, and I'd get sick of it pretty quickly.

it wasnt too bad for me.. Im in St Louis, and I only bought it because it was on sale..  2 Boca items for $4.00.  Otherwise, theyre about $3.25 each.   I still dont think this is too bad...but I didnt want to pay for it unless I liked it, now I know that I LOVE it!

The portion is a little small, I was expecting it to be a bit bigger, but I ate it with wheat thins and it was fine.

The Lasagna one is good too

and if you are into soy foods, the Morning Star bbq ribs is really good (comes with 2 servings per package)

Our area has been having coupons for 100.00 off any 2 BOCA items, check your papers

I saw the morningstar breakfast sausage, I think I'm going to try that.  Right now I have a box of Jimmy Dean Turkey sausage, its pretty good.
The chili is good, but I can't afford to buy it very much.
I'm thinking that you may have mistyped the 100.00 off. That or I want to move where you live!

I agree with what someone else wrote--try the lasgna, it's REALLY good.

And the chili is amazing on tofu dogs :)
