An awesomely interesting "behind the scenes" video about the new Burger King vegan "Impossible Whooper".
They say a lot of the things I've been saying here about vegan food being BETTER than animal-based products, only I've been talking about end-consumer issues (taste, flavor, texture, etc) whereas they reveal what persuaded BK to do this: it is also better for the restaurants. Specifically, it tastes better longer meaning from the time it is taken off the grill to the time it is opened for the first bite; the vegan patty holds it's flavor longer in the wrapper. It also solves other problems, such as shrinkage - the vegan patty does not shrink at variable levels like meat does. -JoeJoe

whooper
[ hoo-per, hwoo-, woo- ] noun a person or thing that whoops. ... yep.
I still recall the day I met Beaker from the Muppets. He said to me "Meep, meep, mee mee mee Meep!", and that has made all the difference.

Impossible patties are made from soy protein concentrate and potato protein, with fat from coconut and sunflower oils, all bound together with methyl cellulose, a laxative.

Is it possible that Vegan Hot Dogs come in three varieties: shorthaired, wirehaired and longhaired, dripping in blood red Ketchup?

Quote from video: "It is kind of the Tesla of the Tesla of food if you think about it; it is full of new technology, it seeks to disrupt it's sector, and it has inspired thousands of sometimes heated conversation about the future. But one thing it hasn't been all this time is widely available in restaurants ... that is about to change, the Impossible Burger is coming to Burger King" Man rode horses for thousands and thousands of years, why do you want a car?? Why are you not arguing that man should be riding horses that there is no need for nothing "better"?? That is just plain downright silly sounding. I want something "better" to eat. So if you ever happen to see the warden of this "prison planet" we are on, do let him know that JoeJoe is refusing to eat the food and is demanding something "better" to eat.

So, go eat your something "better," just stop trying to tell us that we secretly want it.
And the question, why are vegans so hot to make their food resemble meat?

Neither a "Whopper" nor an "Impossible Whopper" look anything like an actual "animal". So your question comes from the presumption that hamburgers look like animals when in fact they do not. So if you were born into a vegetarian society you would be wondering why animal eaters grind-up their cows and make them resemble bean and rice patties, culture bias. -JoeJoe

Fair enough though, I will rephrase the question; Why does there seem to be a major industry in the vegan culture, making patties that look like hamburgers or sausage, and telling us "you won't be able to tell the difference!"? If we handed you a spiced, seasoned, smoked burger and said; "You won't be able to tell it's not vegan!" You wouldn't buy it for a moment.

And their motivation is not to trick you into thinking you are eating animal, but to create a better product that will deliver the same taste without the devastating environmental, health, and emotional consequences that comes with the meat industry. -JoeJoe

Joe Joe- "beef" does not look like a "hamburger";Â
Yes. Yes it does. When you run beef through a grinder, which I have done for many years, it comes out a certain texture, consistency, etc ., which is what vegetarians try to get their veggies to resemble. Why? Because they love hamburgers. Same reason your friend made veggie tuna and put it on a sandwich- to imitate ground tuna. |

Cooked on the same grill as meat change your thoughts on a vegan burger?

This whole divide and conquer crap is just not going to work with me, we have more in common than you realize, but you won't know this until after you've tried both options. -JoeJoe

For example, french fries are often cooked in the same fryer with chicken ... which is why McDonald's has had no vegan options on their menu what-so-ever (today, many McDonald's have "dedicated friers" to solve this problem). -JoeJoe
