About the Brand
For more than 65 years, Worthington and Loma Linda have created new and innovative products for consumers looking for vegetarian options.
Worthington Foods began as Special Foods in 1939, founded by psychiatrist Dr. George Harding. Dr. Harding was committed to providing health for the body and mind with an emphasis on nutrition and vegetarianism. The first products were the meat alternatives Proast (dark meat) and Numete (light meat). Special Foods grew throughout the years and saw a jump in production due to a shortage of meat during WWII. In 1945, Special Foods changed its name to Worthington.
In the decades to follow, Worthington Foods led the way to new vegetarian products. During the 1950s, Worthington increased in size due to acquisitions and new product developments, such as Soyamel and Veja-Link, the world's first vegetarian hot dog. In the 1960s, Worthington experienced two major breakthroughs. First, using spun soy fiber to create a meat-like texture helped to bring new vegetarian products to market. Second, Worthington was the first to bring frozen vegetarian food into supermarkets.
In the 1970s, under new ownership by Miles Laboratories, Worthington introduced Morningstar Farms products. In 1982, the original founders bought back the business and, soon after, Dale Twomley became CEO, taking the company public in 1992. You now find these products under the Kellogg's family of brands.

Brings back old memories,

This review is from: Worthington Veja-Links, Low Fat, 19-Ounce Cans (Pack of 12) (Grocery)
I don't think I would ever tell someone that these things tasted just like regular meat hot dogs, because they just don't. Either you have to be a devoted vegetarian or have acquired the taste for these in some other way, or they just aren't for you. I grew up on these because the Worthington company used to be tied to our church denomination in Berrien Springs, Mich. They used to serve 'em in school lunches and at church potlucks or camping trips, and to this day there are trucks full of all sorts of goodies that sometimes park themselves at certain church locations for the sole purpose of selling Worthington products. I love these weenies! Even more so than regular hot dogs. Quite often I will just eat these by themselves without a bun or ketchup/mustard/etc. They have a softer texture than normal hot dogs, and they definitely are smaller. The vejalinks come in a salty sauce (kinda the consistency of watered-down maple syrup--but doesn't taste like maple syrup) to keep them juicy in the can. This probably sounds gross, but I think I like the sauce just as much as the vejalinks. I've tried other non-meat hot dogs, like some soy dogs that are in the refrigerated section of the grocery store, but I have never liked the taste as much as these. It definitely is an acquired taste, though. I am super stoked to have found these on Amazon, as previously, I would have had to drive 90 minutes to the church's division headquarters to purchase them.

These are definitely not as spicy as most hot dogs and smaller than the average, but with buns and condiments quite a good alternative to the meat-based products. A lot of people couldn't tell the difference I am sure.
