I tried the Impossible Burger Whopper at Burger King about 2 or 3 years ago. It tasted fairly the same as a Whopper. The texture was a little different, but eh -- It was a fast food burger; it's not like I was expecting A5 wagyu.
I’m holding out for the McAlgae. On a burger note, I finally decided to try a Quarter Pounder w/ cheese with the supposed fresh patties. I got a cold burger that obviously wasn’t cooked fresh and must have been sitting around for over an hour. I had to zap it in the microwave but, apparently, that wasn’t enough to kill whatever bacteria or whatever was growing. I got kind of sick and had to make a few late night runs to the el bano. And, that was the smallest, most ridiculous looking burger I’ve ever seen. That quarter pound patty was reduced in size to a small pancake and it looked nothing like the picture. I wanted to go Michael Douglas in “Falling Down” on their ass. “You call this pathetic thing a burger. Look at that pic and then look at this miserable, pathetic piece of sh_t!” Never again. McPlant can McBlow me!

The burger chain began testing the plant-based burger created with Beyond Meat in eight restaurants in November, with a wider-scale test planned to begin Feb. 14. Piper Sandler analyst Michael Lavery wrote that the boost to Beyond's U.S. revenue could be as high as $215 million annually.
I've tried plant based foods before and they are decent now. Not a staple in my diet and not necessarily healthier but if there is ever a meat shortage it's not that bad as in the past. Never tried the McPlant (not big on McDonalds) but the impossible whopper was alright.
