PatuleiaReal meat vs Beyond meat
RobIf there’s one dish where I feel it’s a waste to eat animal meat, it’s hamburgers. Vegetarian alternatives have come a long way and in a burger they’re often the superior option.
There’s a small difference for sure, but the BM patties are far from inferior. And much of the difference is masked by condiments anyway.
I personally think like the complete opposite - if there’s anything that’s a waste, it’s a beyond meat burger, because veggie burgers are like, really fucking good. Why on earth would you settle for an inferior pretend product when you can instead have a really good thing that’s not pretending to be something else?
Miss me with that fake meat stuff and bring back actual veggie burgers! I got a real nice sweet potato and black bean one I’ve been working on for a while now
It's def subjective but I've never been a fan of the blackened bean burger as a hamburger replacement. I wasn't that impressed with the bm burgers but the impossible burgers are a fine replacement imho.
This isn’t a hamburger replacement this is a homemade burger where the beans taste like beans and are mainly there because I like refried beans and thought they’d be good as a burger
I tell meat eaters and vegetarians the same thing about this.
“Do not compare this to the best meat hamburger you ever had. Instead pretend its a completely new food that you’ve never tried.”
Treat it like a protein option and stop trying to force it to be just like something else. It is very similar to meat in many ways, but it isn’t meat. I don’t consume much advertising so I don’t know if the companies are selling it and saying that it’s indistinguishable.
It’s not “fake”, it just isn’t “meat”.
