PS. But being "frisky" is so much fun!

Yes

ok 50g of soya mince mixed with 150ml of water made 150g of soya mince or just over.
not one of them noticed it was a beef / soya mince mix and Dh actually turned around and told me how nice it was.
though i am really fussy i ate it all but to me it did not taste right but that might be cos i knew it was there or cos i am feeling a little unwell will have to see come monday when i do a spag bol.
all in all i say it was a good call to buy it.Still TryingGrocery challenge July 2016

I can usually tell Quorn if its in something 'plain' like cottage/shepherds pie but in something like chilli or spag bol which is more strongly flavoured/spiced then you can't tell at all.0

good that is what i was hoping for
just worked out the cost of it, mince is normally £1.65 at the moment for 500g and i got the meat on offer £2.50 for 1kg which i split into 3 so thats 83p plus 13p worth of soya mince so that comes to 96p thats a 69p saving x that by the amount of mince i bought thats £12.42p i will of saved over the next 18 mince meals ooo i love it.Still TryingGrocery challenge July 2016
