A San Francisco company called Impossible Foods just announced a partnership with Burger King to offer an alternative to animal meat on the burger menu, and besides being delicious, it could be huge for the fight against climate change.

This “news” article is nothing but a PR release by Burger King. The media today are a toxic mix of ignorant, arrogant, and lazy. F’ them all.
I thought all burgers at BK were made with a beef alternative.
Cattle are ruminants, their digestive systems produce the gases emitted.
From FreeDictionary: “The roughly 150 species of ruminants includes both domestic and wild species. Ruminating mammals include cattle, goats, sheep, giraffes, yaks, deer, antelope, and some macropods.”
Naturally, after eliminating the ruminants, “science” would identify further natural polluters, such as birds, fish, or mammals, maybe the next items on their eradication list.
So, what Leftists really want is to decimate the animal kingdom & disrupt the natural food chain to satisfy their idiocy.
As if that would have the desired effect of reducing CO2 & methane, even as India, China, & much of the developing world continue severely polluting the atmosphere.
It amazes me that so many incredibly ignorant people want to mess with Mother Nature in life killing ways.
If it comes from Booger King (no misspelling), it’s got to be horrible.
No meat or fowl since 1991 for me. I will eat fish, especially salmon, which you know is good for the heart.
The “Green New Dea;” will be the end od the world and if implemented immediately it may complete in the forecast 12 years?
Why?
Because while regulating cow farts building codes airplanes cars etc, it will begin the first stage of carbon abatement by removing all the CO2 in the atmosphere before moving on to stage two which will remove all other greenhouse gasses including water vapor.
How they and we will live past the end of stage one is a good question, but no one will survive the end of stage two. Mars will look more habitable when they are finished.
1,550,000 wildebeest (global)
1,650,000 moose (Us and Canada)
33,500,000 deer (just in the US)
1,000,000 elk (Us and Canada)
58,372,106 horses (Global)
168,000,000 water buffalo (global)
2,000,000,000 pigs
And all species of birds.
Everything that consumes vegatable matter
emits methane as a by-product. It makes
no sense for humans to consume even more
vegatable matter just so we can emit more
methane. At least to my red neck way of
thinking....
Judging from the numbers above we should
be eating more bacon.
"Oh, look! A squirrel!"
Seems plausible to me, especially when she drifts away from her Justice Democrats' script.
Given the inane libtard reaction to GMA food, what will be their reaction to whole hog (/sarc) lab-grown-not-quite-meat?
Man's intervention, governed by his own SELF-IMPORTANCE, only serves to ANNIHILATE man.
The POINT: "Don't screw with Mother Nature!"
WRONG! I had an Impossible Burger too, at a specialty burger restaurant. It tasted pretty good, but was mushy like wet bread--not at all the texture of meat. Not a pleasant experience--especially since my companion ordered an ordinary, real, burger, that looked delicious.
Besides that, "animal cruelty and suffering" are largely myths. My family had a cattle farm and those cattle had a good life eating grass all day. The young steers were sold off--to spend a few weeks in a feed-lot, where they ate corn to their heart's content--to fatten them up--then they were hearded into a place where they were euthanized (a bullet to the brain), about as painless as death gets.
The whole idea that a naturally occurring animal (modern cattle are descendant from ancient wild species) is to blame for global warming is ridiculous, anyway.
Jesus ate meat. 'Nough said.
Unlikely. With a process in a sealed vessel, the methane will be captured, pipelined, and sold as a profitable byproduct of the process.
Of course there’s ‘climate change’; it’s spring.
Impossible Meat, while it is far superior to most veggie burgers, is not the same as Meat... taste is certainly far closer than anything else out there, but you aren’t going to take a bite of an impossible burger, and a real burger and not know which is the real thing.....
Yeah, butt...”We don’t have to accept emergency limitations on personal liberty, massive government expansion, or frivolous crackdowns on planes, trains, and automobiles.”
For the Left, where’s the fun in that?
It seems that the whole problem all along has been with associating naturally happening events causing problems & then calling it a man-made problem with the environment.....when it really is neither. Too many people just can’t seem to realize that man is not controlling the environment. There are so many variables & man does not have the ability to put into the proper perspective all that it would entail to control it properly. Leave it to HE who knows what it takes to keep things working naturally.

Only if I without food for 3 years...
