    Just had one. BK going nation wide with this today.

    Verdict: Taste like actual Whopper. Better than Carl's Jr's Beyond Burger. Cost is $1 more than beef Whopper.

    Also had a Red Robin Impossible burger a few weeks back. That one is better but of course sine Red Robin is a more upscale restaurant.

    Short Beyond meat stock! Chris Paul about to go broke!

    In misleading OP fashion, I thought it was some prediction CP3 wouldn't miss a single game next season due to injury

    I think both Beyond meat and Impossible made new formulas for their nationwide fast food rollouts.

    That being said, previously the store bought beyond meat burger was superior to the impossible burger. Neat u can get good vegan burger almost anywhere now.

    Subway is going to rollout a vegan marinara sub with beyond meat balls soon as well.

    I like Carl Jr's Beyond Burger better. You can add jalapeños to it

    I had a friend in the secret service. strong guy, who was grilling in his front yard, and his girlfriend threw one of those veggie patties on the grill. He immediately flipped it 30 yards into the street and it got ran over. She was so pissed. That was pretty funny. He was no serious. Not on my grill.

    Is it possible that the reason it tastes like a Whopper is because of the transfer of juices from the grill they run it through? I read they use the same grill for all patties. So, it is not a vegan option.

    Key question: does it smell like an armpit? Waiting with bated breath.

    I like Landrys burgers better. They seasoned everything with Herreras tears.

    Personally, I prefer actual veggie burgers to these fake meat burgers. Unfortunately, they seem to be increasingly getting phased out of restaurants and now vegetarians are forced to pay extra to have a tasty meatless meal in these places.

    I'm happy with the trend overall. Just wish it wasn't crowding out other, less expensive veggie options.

    Are we talking about vegetables shaped like a burger patty, or industrial waste shaped to look like a veggie burger patty that isn't made from vegetables? If it isn't veggie, and it isn't meat, then what the hell is it?
