GMO: Silicon Valley's Bloody Plant Burger Smells, Tastes And Sizzles Like Meat

[Elim Garak]

What is missing from plant proteins and fats?

It's a genetic issue. Look it up. Key word: FADS1. In relation to animal/plant fats.

[Damajin]

No, never.

[Strangebrew]

Sorry, but i like the feeling of having dead animals inside me, when i can feel their souls scream out in pain from the inside.

Depends on availability and cost.
I don't much care what the stuff is made of, so long as it tastes good. But hipster marketing (like the multiple little bowls) is generally a major turn-off for me.

yeah we usually just have a single plate with all the toppings and then you just make your own burger. And our mustard and ketchup just come from a bottle.

Then again, I'd much rather eat some shitty pea protein beet juice fake burger, than a burger made out of grasshoppers, worms and maggots.

[Dys]

Why can't they, instead of making fake burgers out of peas and beet juice, come up with beef plants. There's already a flower that smells like rotting corpses. Can't be that hard. Just splice cow genes with corn genes and there ya go. Cow corn.

That's just the thing the world needs, an avenue for Children of the Cow Corn to be created.

Also, zombies. Cow corn makes zombies. It has to, because it's all ridiculous.

Edit: Where is the "Yes" option in the poll? I see the burger and know what's in it (on the broad spectrum), I don't need more info. A single burger won't save a cow, and I don't know how much it costs already, so it doesn't matter if it's cheaper. So bias.

I'd eat it.

What is the protein content? I'm all for it if it can deliver what I need from the product.

[frogger237]

Ive eaten a fake chicken fungus burger before and thought it was fine so Id prob eat that as well.

[Kathandira]

Poll is missing an option:

1 Need more info.
2 No.
3 If it saved a cow.
4 If it were cheaper.
5 I'll try anything once*

[unfilteredJW]

I'd eat my own head with enough bacon and cheese so I'm pretty sure this would be ok.

[grandpab]

I mean, if I needed to eat it for survival sure, I could eat it. Why would I though when I could just get a real burger?

[Fencers]

Sounds really cool. I like a good beef steak burger but don't mind veggie burgers too much either. In fact, a local place near my house sells a really tasty veggie burger that I am quite fond of lately.

Would definitely try the one in the OP.

[Blur4stuff]

i've had some okay tasting veggie burgers. if this is even better then let's save the cows and pigs while we're at it.

[Annoying]

Why is there no "sure" option? I don't even care much if it saves a cow, I'd still give it a go.

[TheDestinatus]

I'd probably eat it if I was hungry and there weren't better alternatives, but I wouldn't go crying in the breast milk about it to everyone saying its the best solution in the world. I'm not upset about being an omnivore.

[TheTaurenOrc]

The marketing for these types of products is always so weird. Meat and dairy substitutes targeted at vegans... which seems so bizarre.

Why would you still eat something that perpetuates the image of everything you are supposedly against?

[Beazy]

It will never be better than HopDoddys Veggie burger.
LA BANDITA $8
Black Bean-Corn Patty, Avocado, Goat Cheese, Arugula, Cilantro Pesto, Chipotle Mayo, White Onion, Beefsteak Tomato on Whole Wheat.

IF you havent eaten here, stop missing out on life.

"Tastes just like this other thing, but made from entirely different shit" never actually tastes as advertised.

It may be a wonderful meat substitute, but I generally despise things like that. Additionally, they usually end up being more harmful than what they're intended to replace. See sugar substitutes.

[Kuntantee]

Yes, I would give it a shot.
