    I’ve been a vegetarian for a long time and beyond meat/impossible meat aren’t my favorite flavor or texture. I still opt for the older substitutes like Morningstar (kellogg) and Gardein (conagra) when I need a substitute for a cookout or something. I know they were hoping to market to people who eat meat though so maybe this anecdote is irrelevant. I wonder if impossible, which is private, is similarly losing money.

      I actually really love beyond meat burgers and added as a ground beef substitute. I found that if the patties are charred the blackened char is like a brand new spice. Can’t really compare it to anything and I love it.

        I’ll try that next time I have one! Do you like impossible too? I’m not an excellent cook so maybe the ones I mentioned are just more fool proof to cook.

          I’m not as big of a fan of impossible, but it’s been a while since I’ve tried it. I know Beyond Meat has gotten better over time. I’d be willing to try it again but it doesn’t seem to be as available where I live.
