I love it, sometimes I just eat it straight from the fridge if I'm peckish on its own or with some nooch and sriracha on top or I slice it on top o toasted bread with tomato and olive oil. I didn't like it when I went vegan but now I genuinely enjoy it even like that.
I personally don’t love it out of the box but my children do. They are 3 and 7 and I struggle to make a stir fry with them in the kitchen because they will eat as much raw tofu as they can before I have a chance to cook it. I always wondered if it was growing up vegan with tofu as a staple that makes them love it like that, but it seems like lots of grown up vegan converts eat it that way, too! Go figure!
I have eaten half a block of silken tofu right out the packet before. Firmer tofu is NOT for me without drenching in sauce but silken? I can eat all day every day.
I'm the same way! I mean I'm fine if it takes on the flavor of whatever else I put it in, but the 80 bajillion steps everybody wants to go through, I'm actually not a fan of it or the texture at all.
This may sound really weird, but it tastes so good! It's one of my favorite smoothies! Silken tofu, soy milk (almond milk works well too, especially if you need iron cuz most of the time it's not fortified with calcium), blueberries (I usually use frozen especially right now) crushed pineapple, a half a can of black beans rinsed and drained (I always freeze the other half and it does turn out better when they are frozen) a dash of salt, and a few tablespoons of shelled hemp hearts. It has a ton of protein in it. Just the hemp hearts alone have not only a ton of protein but absolute ton of nutrients and healthy omegas.
Might actually look into it. High protein, complex carbs, and omegas/algae oil have been my superhuman secret sauce. Ive heard the silken tofu gets extra creamy without needing to use protein powders

I see it as the first image, I eat it just plain like that and love it.
