Boca Review & Giveaway (2 Winners)
September 4, 2008 by Caryn
Update
This giveaway is now closed! Thank you for stopping by! The winners are Carol and Jennifer M. Congratulations!
If I could be diligent enough to eat the proper combination of foods to obtain all of the nutrients my body needs, without eating meat, I would become a vegetarian. I’ve never really liked eating red meat and I only eat poultry out of necessity. Since I purposefully limit my fish intake to a couple of times a week, I’m constantly trying to find ways to consume protein and iron-rich foods.
The first time I heard about Boca was from my very good friend who has a dairy allergy. Her experience with soy-based dairy alternatives was so favorable that she actually preferred Boca’s Burgers and Veggie Patties over hamburgers. I actually don’t like hamburgers so the thought of an alternative was initially unappealing to me. During BlogHer, Boca sponsored an afternoon break and I mustered up my courage to try a Boca Burger and a Chick’n Patty. I was really surprised at how yummy they both tasted, although I did prefer the Chick’n Patty. I was expecting both products to have a veggie or soy taste and I did not experience this with either product. In fact, I decided to pick up a box of Chick’n Patties for myself and 2 varietites of Boca Burgers for my husband (Flame Grilled and Original) while I was at Whole Foods. I really like the Chick’n Patties and while my husband found the burgers to be tasty, he prefers a big, juicy hamburger straight from the cow. What can I say, he’s a meat and potatoes guy from the South!
Hey Weight Watchers’ Members…I calculated many of Boca’s products to be anywhere from 1-3 points and one will definitely fill you up! Just don’t make up for it with fries and a shake! : ) Boca’s soy-based products are a great source of calcium, iron, and fiber and are lower in fat (including saturated fat), calories, and cholesterol than meat-based products. Many of Boca’s products are made with organic ingredients and cater to the Vegan population. If you’d like more information on Boca’s expansive line of products, tips on healthy living, or recipes to inspire new ways of eating your favorite Boca product, check out the website.
Win It!

I would like to try Boca in a Bun Chik’c & Swiss Sandwich. I do not eat much meat or fish. I do enjoy Boca - I loved their burger with vegies, but I have trouble finding that vege buger in the store.
I am close to being a vegetarian, seldom buy or eat meat, and I would love to try the new flavor of veggie pattties Bruschetta Tomato Basil Parmesan. cdziuba@aol.com
No, i am not a vegetarian, but i would like to try this, it would be a healthy alternative.
I am not currently a vegetarian, but I find myself enjoying meatless recipes more and more! I would LOVE to try the BOCA Meatless Ground Burger — it sounds like it would work very well in my existing ground beef recipes!!
Thank you for a great giveaway!
I am not a vegetarian, but I love meatless meals. Boca makes great products that I’ve tried, but two that I have not tried but would like to are: Bruschetta Tomato Basil Parmesan veggie patties, and Boca in a Bun Chik’n & Swiss Sandwiches.

The Chick’n patties.
I would like to try the Ground Crumbles Made with Natural Ingredients. I am not a vegetarian, but I don’t eat all that much meat either.
I’m not a vegetarian however I would like to try the Spicy Chik’n Patties. I think they would be good cut up and put into a wrap with romaine, spinach, tomato, etc. Hmmmm hope I win LOL
Nope not a vegetarian, and I love boca burgers- I find I eat meat only afew times a month and sometimes not even that
I am not a vegetarian, however I am doing weight watchers and find that I really enjoy the health benefits and taste of Boca products. I would like to try the new Boca in a bun. It sounds so tasty.

I was a Vegetarian at one time, but not now. I do like the patties.
I want to try the chick’n patties. I am not a vegetarian, but do often eat veggies burgers for a lighter alternative. I just started weight watchers this week actually so it’s good to know that about the points value!!
I’m glad to have discovered a word for what I am - flexitarian! Not totally vegetarian, but I do eat animal foods much less often than when I was growing up. I’d like to try the Boca Garden Vegetable burgers made with organic soy and the Bratwurst Sausage.
Thanks!
Haven’t eaten red meat in years and love Boca products. They taste pretty good and have great protein.
I’m vegetarian. Borderline Vegan. I still drink some milk. I would LOVE this!!!
I love Boca, my favorite is the Bruschetta Tomato Basil Parmesan, throw a little mozzarella on it, yum!
Burgers - not a vegetarian
I would like to try the crumble for tacos and such.
No I am not a vegetarian - I am a vegan.
No other animal drinks mothers milk after infancy except humans. No other animal drinks the mothers milk of another creature except humans. Cow puss is full of blood and muceous. NASTY!
Thanks for the great offer! Original Boca Burgers are one of the few vegetarian meat substitutes my husband likes, but I’d love to try the Bruschetta Tomato Basil Parmesan Veggie Patties. We aren’t vegetarians, but I seem to be coming what is referred to as a “flexitarian”: I eat a lot of lacto-ovo vegetarian meals, but I still eat meat. I almost never buy red meat to cook at home, so hubby gets his fix at restaurants.
Dad is a vegetarian and is so- so on Boca burgers. (they taste too close for his likes. lol)
I wold try the Chick’n Patty. Sounds good. I am more of a chicken eater and would like to find a better choice.
Thank you for offering.
I want you to know that Boco Products have helped save my Husbands life. His Heart Doctor approves of them so much he told us about them. My Husband lost over 65 pounds after his heart operation and Boco Burger were his best friend
Hope I win some coupons

I have been a vegerarian for several years. I love the Boca Flame Grilled Burger and I would like to try the new Bruschetta Tomato Basil Parmesan Veggie Patties.
I try to eat vegetarian most days…some days I slip up, especially on cheese! The Boca grillers are the best. But, I have tried the Bruschetta Tomato Basil and they were a really nice change to the usual ‘hamburger’.
My cardiologist says i need to start learning more about meatless meals, and would like me to become a vegetarian. Anything i try will be new and different for me…

I’d try the Cheeseburger or the Roasted Garlic or Roasted Onion Boca Burgers. We are not vegetarians, but I love to have meatless meals occasionally to save both money and calories. We do love Boca Burgers - when they are “dressed up” with all the fixins’ on bread or a hamburger bun, you really do not miss the meat! They are fabulous! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I really want to try Boca Burgers. I am not a Vegetarian YET but getting closer every day.
