I remember BK briefly offered a veggie burger in the 90s. My grandfather ordered it and said it was just lettuce and tomato on a bun. He was pissed lol.

The BKs around me still have the Morning Star burgers. Biting into one is like biting into an air hockey puck.

I donβt see how people justify boycotting Impossible Foods, but will turn around and spend their money on omnivorous restaurants just because they have a couple vegan options. I personally donβt see supporting either as a bad thing, but either way youβre supporting something not vegan.

I personally donβt see supporting either as a bad thing, but either way youβre supporting something not vegan. yeah i honestly think the only way to not put a penny of your money toward anything non-vegan is to grow your own crops and live off that, ha. there is nothing wrong with buying from companies that are owned by non-veg companies, going to restaurants that arenβt 100% vegetarian, etc. just the initial news of the animal testing on impossible meat was disheartening and as a vegan, my first reaction is to not purchase anything tested on animals.

I'd rather support companies that don't partake in any animal harm, but if that's not the best option, I'm at least showing that there is a demand for meat / byproduct-free goods.

If another company comes along and uses the ingredients that impossible tested on animals with, is that company not vegan? Even if Impossible killed 1,000 rats through testing, how is that worse than the uncountable number that Taco Bell has killed for its meat products?

I feel like everyone who cares does what they can within their means. Going beyond food stuffs, are all my household cleaning products vegan? Are my bed sheets vegan? Is my freegan leather couch vegan? Except for that last one, i have no idea.
The shit can get really overwhelming. No sense beating yourself or anyone else up over it. Counterproductivity at it's best.
Doing something is better than doing nothing.

i totally agree that itβs about doing the best you can! i even encourage my meat eating friends to go meatless one meal or one day a week. i think any time anyone chooses a meatless option, it helps.
also, if my memory serves me, i believe it was 180 rats. and yeah, while not ideal, definitely the lesser of two evils by a fuck ton,

the beyond meat ground beef is just standard crumble fair, its not like the burger patty meat. That is unless there's a newer product out that I haven't seen. You'd probably be better off buying the patties and making your own ground beef crumble.

You'd probably be better off buying the patties and making your own ground beef crumble. They phased out whatever frozen crumbles they used to make, based on similar reviews. They are suppose to have (or are in the process of releasing) a refrigerated version that is essentially the burgers just not in patty form. However; since the key to cooking the burgers is making sure the interior is still pink, and not doing so pretty much makes them taste like run of the mill boca patties, not sure if this version of crumble will really be any better.
