" Our burger is made from simple, all-natural ingredients such as wheat, coconut oil, and potatoes. What makes the Impossible Burger unlike all others is an ingredient called 'Heme.' Heme is a basic building block of life on Earth, including plants, but it’s uniquely abundant in meat. We discovered that Heme is what makes meat smell, sizzle, bleed, and taste gloriously meaty. Consider it the “magic ingredient” that makes our burger a carnivore’s dream.

And the best thing about it is that it's been created in California's world famous Silicon Valley.
OK, maybe that's not the best thing about it.
Saving the Planet never tasted so good--I hope. But I really don't know yet myself. It's being touted (no surprise here) as a significant reduction in agricultural acreage and greenhouse gas emissions, compared to the ground beef product.
It was just reported on MSNBC. I am going to make it a point to try one soon. The Impossible Foods website has a Locations tab. Austin, Dallas, Anaheim, Houston, Oakland, New York, Pasadena, Las Vegas, Palo Alto and Costa Mesa. It's a dine-out offering only, not available yet at any supermarkets or grocers. A dine-out offering, or order one "to go."
Tried that stuff back when it first came out. The blood was like beer juice with iron added. Wasn’t the same as slurping up the “juice” from a nice piece of London broil or any nice cut of beef.
It wasn’t terrible, but some of the other stuff that I’ve tried over the years was (imo) - like no-chicken meatballs that have a consistency of tendons and grizzle and chicken bugbears (lol autocorrect) NUGGETS that replicate the “fake nuggets” instead of actual chicken “whole-meat” chicken nuggets.
I’d rather have some “regular” tofu or other stuff instead of the pseudo stuff. And yes, (since you asked) I also prefer real actual boobs , not fake ones with scars and regret.
But the REAL question is…
Are there “meatbots” bumping old threads this weekend?
