- entee 10y agoOne note: the saturated fat component is most likely from the coconut oil. The nutritional impact of coconut oil as a saturated fat is complicated. 55% daily value may not be as terrible as it looks on first glance. http://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/coconut-oil http://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/coconut-oil

- LeanderK 10y agoFor special requirements (allergies, diets) reengineering the patty would be way easier than reengineering a cow, i would expect. This is their first product.
- linkregister 10y agoAllergies, yes. Zero carbs, probably impossible. That's okay though. No product can satisfy everyone!
- tetrep 10y agoWith ~5g of carbs per 200 calories, you would have to eat these things pretty much exclusively to break keto, the only diet I'm aware of with an actual need for virtually no carbs.
- linkregister 10y agoI'm guessing someone on keto would need at least 150g for satiation, if not double that. For reference, a quarter-pound is about 120g. That's about 10.5g of carbs. It doesn't break the bank by itself, but it does mean there's a limit to the amount of extras on the burger.

EDIT: Here's a link to the FDA comment I deleted, but is reference in the comment below: https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/IngredientsPackagingLabeling/GRAS/NoticeInventory/ucm427026.pdf https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/IngredientsPackagingLabel...
- linkregister 10y agoYour deleted comment from the FDA filing was interesting. I also couldn't make much of it due to unfamiliarity with the terminology. My favorite part was the "this is submitted on a certified Virus-free CD". Original comment: > Not sure what to make of this doc: https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/IngredientsPackagingLabeling/GRAS/NoticeInventory/ucm427026.pdf* https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/IngredientsPackagingLabel...
- saycheese 10y agoOf note in that filing is that Impossible Foods later requested that the FDA not review that PDF linked to above and the FDA agreed to stop reviewing it: https://www.fda.gov/Food/IngredientsPackagingLabeling/GRAS/NoticeInventory/ucm489241.htm https://www.fda.gov/Food/IngredientsPackagingLabeling/GRAS/N...
- linkregister 10y agoI hope you don't mind that I resurrected your comment; I thought it added value.
- saycheese 10y agoNope, don't mind; deleted it because I could figure out what it was.
- flukus 10y agoWhat is a normal weight for a burger pattie? 85g sounds on the small side.
- linkregister 10y agoA quarter-pounder is about 120g.
- Florin_Andrei 10y agoProtein content looks good, but how does it compare to animal protein in terms of essential amino acids? Is it complete protein? If not, what is the limiting amino acid here?
