I love this stuff! I routinely went through one package a week because it was so well made and seasoned. All of my local stores stopped carrying this brand, and none of the others even come close to the goodness of Melissa's. It is a perfect ingredient for potatoes, eggs, beans, Mexican pizza, tacos, chili stew, tons of things.

I am glad I found it here so I no longer have to go through my Soyrizo withdrawals. (Unfortunately the online price is quite a bit more expensive than finding it locally, which was around $3.50 a package or so.)

Soyrizo is the best thing to ever happen to veganism. I love this stuff so much, I could eat it everyday. My favorite way to prepare it is with oven-roasted orange peppers and red onions, on a bed of spanish rice. I have also served it to many meat-eaters and they love it, even a Spanish meat-eater who still eats the traditional chorizo when he goes home to Spain. YUMMY YUM YUM!!! Thank You Melissa!

We love soyrizo but Hannaford Brothers (in the Northeast) are no longer carrying it. I called the whole foods store and they don't carry it either. What's up with that?? The price of the soyrizo and shipping charges on amazon are prohibitive. We are so very disappointed to not have access to this product anymore!!

Not only does Soyrizo, taste great, you can tell that it is top notch quality. Thanks Melissa for such wonderful products. I give you 10 stars!

This stuff is really f'n good. The only downside of this is the digusting intestine tube package. One of the upsides of synthetic animal chunks is that you don't have to package them in synthetic animal pieces. I would buy this a lot more often if it came in a little tub.

I love soyrizo. It's available locally for me, but I would totally buy it online if it weren't. We make potato & soyrizo burritos or soyrizo omelettes for special Sunday veg breakfasts. It's spicy but not overwhelming - slightly sweet and smoky. Great texture and dummy-proof to prepare.

If you're wanting to get away from pork and cholesterol, go for this. I'm not a vegan or vegetarian by any means, but I choose not to eat pork for various reasons, and when you know what goes into regular chorizo...Well, it's not your usual meat. So how do I still enjoy my mom's awesome chorizo? I buy her Soyrizo!

I must say that Melissa's soyrizo is the best I have ever tasted. Even my kids love it! It is so much better than the real stuff that is greasy and full of fat. I mix it with egg whites and put it in a tortilla and it is delicious. Takes a minute to heat it up in the skillet, then add the eggs and it's ready! Doesn't get any better thank that. Thanks Melissa's for such a great product!

This is basically seasoned paste in plastic tube. It does not cook well on it's own and is only good as an extra flavoring. The taste seemed a bit weird to me. It tasted like plastic. Gross!!

Save your money and just get some good quality spices to add to your meal.

This is not a sausage, this is paste in a plastic tube which is shaped like a sausage. Then you cut the tube off and you're left with a log of mash. As one other reviewer mentioned, it'd be better (and more honest) if this came in a tub.

The taste is fine, but not remarkable in any way. I'm not sure how this product is better than you putting tofu, TSP and spices in a blender and then shaping it like poop.

Usually vegan fake meats are at least texturally close, and while they can't approximate meat exactly they are at least trying. Soyrizo makes no attempt (other than the plastic packaging) at being what it claims to replace.

It is a pain in the butt to cook as it has no structure at all, and it burns readily. I cooked half at a high temperature like the packaging suggested - it burned quickly! Then I cooked the other half at a low temperature, cut up into smaller poops so I could roll them over. Regardless of how long it was cooked, it did not dry out or become more solid.

I was very very disappointed by this Soyrizo and will not buy it again.
