Is Tofu good? What does tofu taste like?
I am thinking about becoming vegetarian but I don't know much about fake-meat products. I'm sure there are more faux-meat other than tofu but it's the first that comes to my mind (and probably the first that is offered at restaurants). Does anybody know what tofu tastes like? How would you describe the taste and texture? Does anybody like tofu?
Thank you all for the info!

To add on to what the others below me have said, there are different kinds of tofu. There is the smooth and the rough skinned tofu. If you've ever had soymilk, imagine it congealed to the consistency of a jello or flan but a little harder/sturdier than that and that is the texture of tofu.

Tofu tastes like soybeans. The flavour is not very strong, so tofu will also absorb the flavour of sauces, making it a very versatile ingredient. It is soft.
I eat tofu, but not as a meat substitute, so I usually have it cooked along with meat. It can taste good without meat too. It all depends how you cook it.

To me tofu is delicious, However the taste it all depends on what type of tofu you buy. Tofu is has a wet texture to it sort of taste like rice in a way but with a soft tasting. Tofu is actually soy milk it can be served hot or cold. When I eat tofu I usually eat it in a stir fry or sometimes I can make scrambled eggs with tofu it's all up to you on what you want to make and how you prepare it. If you eat Tofu plain than more than likely you will not like it, it taste better with soy sauce or any type of flavoring. Tofu alone doesn't have much of a taste to it.
