Beyond Burger Vs. Impossible Burger

Post by Red »

Anyone ever had both? They're both pretty damn tasty, but I think I prefer the Impossible Burger a tiny bit more.

I haven't seen too many Impossible Burgers at the shops, but I usually buy the Beyond Burger in bulk (they're a bit pricy, about $9 for 2 burgers, but it's worth it) and grill it for a quick meal (I have to use the barbeque that my family uses which pisses me off by anyway).

I hope they start selling the impossible burger in stores. The FAQ says later "this year" but I don't know when it was written:

Now it says it's coming later this month! Not sure when that'll be, September is halfway over.

I should update this, I don't really like the Beyond Burgers anymore ever since they came out with the even meatier ones that have marbling, which if I am not mistaken have replaced the traditional ones. They just plain taste bad now, and at least in the markets I go to, the original ones are not selling anymore.

I think the Impossible Burgers are now in my area, I'll go next time I head to the markets.

Impossible meat's taste and texture and smell is slightly closer to the real thing, but it also may be slightly more unhealthy than Beyond due to the heme and non-gmo soy ingredients. They both have too much salt, though, which is the main problem. But they are both very tasty, and better on all accounts (health, environment, animals) than real meat.
