Jeanne and Bonnie, I use tempeh quite a lot, in casseroles, and it makes a great mock- chicken salad spread. I find mine in either the refrigerator case where the tofu and other refrigerated vegetarian items are, or sometimes in the freezer case with vegetarian items. It looks like a flat, square or rectangular cake of soybeans, with flecks of black/brown. The types I have bought are packaged in a sort of plastic shrink-wrap package. I live in Ohio (not necessarily vegetarian-friendly country) and I am able to find it at large-chain supermarkets that have a vegetarian section, or a local natural/bulk foods coop. cheryll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have checked all the major supermarkets in my neighbourhood and not one sells tempeh (though there are shelves full of tofu!) I have checked 3 health food stores and still no tempeh. I am going to ask them to bring some in. Thanks again, Bonnie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
