Gelatinous, pretty much flavorless hunks of bean curd. Good addition of (some, but not all kinds of) protien to a vegetarian diet, and it can be flavored pretty easily.
Ever since I became vegetarian, I started eating more (free range) eggs, nuts, mushrooms (heh), and tofu!

Get the Tofumug. Tofu, also known as bean curd, is a food prepared by coagulating soy milk and then pressing the resulting curds into solid white blocks of varying softness; it can be silken, soft, firm, extra firm or super firm. Beyond these broad textural categories, there are many varieties of tofu. It has a subtle flavour, so it can be used in savoury and sweet dishes. It is often seasoned or marinated to suit the dish and its flavours, and due to its spongy texture, it absorbs flavours well.
Nutritionally, tofu is low in calories, while containing a relatively large amount of protein. It is high in iron and can have a high calcium or magnesium content depending on the coagulants (e.g. calcium chloride, calcium sulphate, magnesium sulphate) used in manufacturing.
Tofu first originated in China and has been consumed within China for over 2,000 years dating back to the Han dynasty. It is also a traditional component of the cuisines of East and Southeast Asia, including in Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.
