Meat Stretcher & Meatless Meatloaf

[GlorifiedRice]

My Father gave my Mother $99 in support in the 1970s after the divorce.

I used to go with her to the market

Does anyone remember the "Meat Stretcher" that was sold in the meat case? It was in a plastic bag or box, white with red and black writing

It might have been an A&P or Acme Mkts exclusive...

Also my mother used to make this meatless meatloaf made of those roasted soybeans. The soybeans werent mushy, they were springy

to the bite, I miss it, does anyone have any recipes that dont make the beans too soft?

I don't remember that, but was it TVP? Textured vegetable protein--it is available in health food stores.

In the 1970s my mother made this meatless meatloaf that was dense and chewy out of those roasted soybeans

The soybeans were whole and you could see them in each slice.

If I recall the recipe was on the package of soybean nuts...

Anyone know what this recipe is?
