> Yuck. These are worse than the veggie option. I've tried the impossible burger once; never again. I think it was the smell that was wrong, but am not quite sure. It's the uncanny valley of meat, and I don't like it.
While I don't consume the alternatives all the time I don't find them repulsive either. Both Impossible and Beyond Meat have a compelling product in my personal opinion having eaten meat and been somewhat of a "picky" burger consumer. Then again we all have different pallettes.
I'm curious of what your opinion of the Impossible Whopper at Burger King would be. Back in my younger days I enjoyed a Whopper from time to time and am excited to see how close it comes. Seems to be a rather large investment in fast food these days to validate this path as consumers look for the "healthier" alternatives.

I'm not sure I'd eat it, and I still think the burger bun, fries, soda/milkshake/chocolate milk, etc. are much worse for you than any burger, but there's rarely a problem with expanding consumer choice and product availability.
