There are plenty of new gadgets coming to market, from 8K televisions or Alexa-equipped toilets. But publisher Digital Trend’s pick for top tech winner at this month’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas wasn’t a gadget at all. It was the Impossible Burger 2.0.

Thank you for eating less meat....that leaves more meat for me.
Sorry, tried them, but they do not remotely have the texture of beef... its a good burger for being vegetables, but no way in hell does it come across as the real thing... At least not to me.
Not sure what Imp 2.0 tastes like, except soy with hemoglobin, but might try it once.
If I want to eat my meat substitutes grown in a vat, I get on the next generational starship heading out.
Until then I'll just wait for a real cow to fatten up.
Have at it, and enjoy your compressed vegetable patties. Meanwhile, I am going to enjoy some venison sausage.
Your welcome. Yes, I am a Seventh day Adventist Christian and many if not most are vegetarian and seem to live longer healthier lives. We’re talking doctors practicing in their 90s. I’m in my 60s, and play tennis and outlast guys half my age. Check it out....thanks:

My poor benighted 23 year old niece is vegan. I recently tried one of her “sausages” and it was absolutely vile. I’m still too traumatized to try this. At least she’s a half assed libertarian instead of a full snowflake
About a year ago, I ordered a burger at Buck’s in Woodside, CA after a strenuous mountain hike. I thought the name “Impossible Burger” was just the marketing name of their fully loaded meat burger.
I ate the burger all the while thinking “this is awful.” The waitress came by and asked how everything was. I responded “this burger is terrible...no taste, it’s falling apart.”
She kindly replied “you do know, sir, that that is not meat? It’s our plant based imitation meat.”
We both had a good laugh. Since then, I read the fine print on menus a lot more closely and won’t be ordering another “Impossible” burger again. Yech.
Burgers are meat. Find another name and market under the new product.
You know what manufacturers particularly good plant based burgers? Beef cattle. Grass goes in, and thru an all natural process, it constructs meat. Not only is this mechanism all natural, it is self replicating creating more burger manufacturing machines.
I have had 2 now and could not tell the difference between the impossible burger and a beef burger. So delicious. 61 years old and playing 4.5 USTA tennis with guys half my age. Not the Seniors guys. A
As Dr. Lorraine Day says, she was a trauma surgeon, Seventh day Adventist Doctor in San Francisco who got cancer. Went to God’s original diet after they told it was incurable , the Edenic Diet in Genesis and her immune system was boosted so much, her cancer was healed. She says about diet..”You can’t improve on God”. Amen to that. Thanks.
Good question. Not sure what the protein content is. The texture is just like beef so that might indicate protein. I’ll check. Thank you
Impossible burgers have also received the kosher label, so these veggie burgers are a big hit in some Jewish restaurants. They go for about $20 on the NYC restaurant menu.
White Castle is also selling them in the Chicago market.
Still to pricey, though, for me. $10 for two patties (8 ozs total) in the local yuppie foodstore.
I happen to have a pack of The Beyond Burger (plant based) and it says 20 grams protein.
If they’re made of soy, then I won’t be eating them.
Wait half an hour before you vote. If you’re running to the restroom it’s the fake stuff.
The kosher label?!? Seriously? It’s not beef. Might as well slap a kosher label on a leaf of lettuce.
I eat chicken burgers (Golden Plump, bacon and cheddar). They are better than beef burgers. Very tasty without the red meat issues that come along a few hours after eating.
The veggie burgers I’ve tried are pretty terrible. Never tried the impossible burger but have heard good things from many people.
So when is the recall since the burger was made with E-Coli laced veggies?
