    There's something about a restaurant called, (In N Outs) that makes me loose my appetite, fortunately we don't have those in this part of the country.

    I've had some "garden" burgers that I thought were delicious, but that's not what I hit fast food for.

    IF there was money in it, McDonalds would be all over it but they aren't. Seems like its just Hardees, BK and dunkin donuts jumping on it.

    I've heard good things, but there's no point to me. Honestly, I feel like you could just give people a regular Whopper and tell them it's the Impossible one and no one would know the difference anyway. Not a lot of "meat" in the actual burgers these days. I miss when BK actually had real grills and flame broiled the actual beef patty on the grill in front of you.

    Recently one of our biggest fast food chains discretely removed all of the Impossible selections from their menus.



    They claimed it was a "limited Time Offer" but really it was likely that once everybody gave it a try, they didn't re-order.

    So many times this.

    People, in general, have no concept how food gets to their table. My Great Grandparents and Grandparents were farmers. My Mom grew up on a farm. They would have been considered ethical and organic before that was even a thing. They didn't mistreat their animals. Heck, the animals got better care than they did. Buy local and organic. Stay away from the large corporate farms. Lean organic grass fed beef and organic grain fed poultry is going to be better for you than chemically treated modified soy protein artificially flavored to resemble meat.

    Lastly, try to stay away from fast food. Whether it's pink or green slime, it's just not good for you.

    I dont trust veggie dishes that are trying to pretend to be meat. I like a lot of vegan dishes but I don't think they need to be disguised as meat.

    Now that I take care of my nephew on the weekends, I am glad to see this coming out. When we pick him up on Friday we take him to the Museum (has dinosaurs) and the aquarium (loves the touch tank) and then we go to Burger King to get him the nuggets. Since both my boyfriend and I eat more natural food or veggies this works at best for the three of us. We used to get there veggie burger (told them to skip the gas chamber) cut the ketchup and mayo with a side salad and get unsweet tea. That really cuts back bad stuff.

    When we take him back we stop at Carl's Jr so he can get a kids meal and again we started up with the lettuce wrap impossible burger (hold ketchup & mayo) with side salad and unsweet tea. Even the nephew has started to drink unsweet tea. This is the only time we eat the veggie meat.

    It is not bad, the way they make the 'burgers' bleed is beets. It does take the real fast food burgers. Just remember that most fast food burgers as NOT made of 100% beef, they are a science experiment themselves.

    If you look at the nutritional info it has almost as much bad stuff as a regular Whopper... and even MORE sodium!

    For those wondering how it compares in nutrition: The Impossible Whopper is only 30 calories and six grams of fat less than the standard Whopper, and 100 mg more sodium.
    Grabbed that quote out of the article I read earlier this week, https://thetakeout.com/review-burger...per-1837069411
