I believe my original point is about your credibility, especially when you are so loose with terms like "fraud," which are so emotionally loaded and legally meaningful. Why should anyone accept your fraud premise unless they have reason to believe you are in possession of supporting facts? I certainly wouldn't call someone a crook if I couldn't support it. I could get sued. However, if you are finally willing to discuss the merits and demerits of IDX based on facts, rather than name-calling, I'm available.

For what it is worth: My sister had some Garden Burger (my apologies if I have misspelled that) patties at her house. They were in an unopened pack so I assume they were fairly fresh. So I tried a couple. These were 'original' flavor. So so as a straight item in flavor, somewhat of a mushroom flavor with some cheese mixed in. I was not overly impressed. I tried cutting up the second patty and added various condiments and bread to try to get an idea of how it is as a hamburger substitute. It did not go well with anything I tried. All of the condiments I tried seemed to bring out a bland quality. Of further note to me was the cheese it has in it. This raised the fat content to a pretty high level. I normally don't eat things with this high of a fat content and I felt that this was a factor that would reduce its appeal to the sort of health oriented market it seems aimed at. Overall I am not impressed and doubt this is a very good product for large sales. Maybe some appeal to vegetarians who are willing to eat fairly fatty foods. Personally I would rather eat ground turkey, better flavor and leaner. All the Best Druss
