The best way to get a meateater who's never tried tofu to hate it is to serve it as a meat substitute.
Because there is no way a brick of soybean curd is ever going to take the place of a juicy steak, or a meaty pork chop, or even a piece of chicken breast. Well, maybe a chicken breast... specially if it's the boneless, skinless kind...
