The Impossible Burger

[McGrathsipan]

If I were to eat a 2 and a half year decomposed burger, I think I'd go with the regular whopper over the impossible burger.

Why does he do that?

The future isn't vegetable/mushroom based meat substitutes. The future is lab grown meat with the same protein profile as the real stuff.

Impossible Burger might be leading the race at the moment. But I don't see anything to suggest it can displace slaughtered meat in the general market. It just has too many downsides and shortcomings.

To prove that it's not......

.....wait for it.....

I've tried the Impossible Whopper. Decent, but nothing special imo.

I had a BK burger for the first time in years today, I'd forgotten how shit they are

The McPlant is a decent alternative to your standard cheeseburger IMO. Would love them to do a Big Mac version of it with those sauces

It really is decent. I couldn't tell it wasn't an ordinary cheeseburger and it tastes way better than their normal quarter pounder.

I think the crucial aspect which sets it apart from the others were the condiments and salad which tasted little to no different to the ones you'd get on the other meat-based burgers.

I've tried the meat-free alternatives at other places like Byron and elsewhere, but they've always flattered to deceive. This was the first one which I would happily have.

I mean, the only different thing was the cheese. Vegan cheese has a bad rep (quite rightly so) but burger cheese only needs to be very subtle and to give a bit of moisture to the burger which this vegan cheese was able to do.

Why does he do that?

Thought that too at first but it's got to be for "science"/the views. Nobody is going to put burgers in jars on a shelf for 2 1/2 years if they don't have a Youtube channel to show them on.

Mind you, his channel doesn't seem consistently popular, not sure some of the view counts are worth it although he does have some big hits where the Youtube algorithm gods look to have favoured him. He also apparently put grapes and carrots in a bottle long before he had a channel and kept it for some reason.

You can ask them to put the Big Mac sauce on it
