You may have seen that many restaurants are including plant based meat substitutes into your favorite foods but how do they compare? Is the extra cost worth it? Will the influx of veggie patties, veggie dogs, and the like be able to replace your favorite meat? These questions are hard to answer, but take a look at our review to see how the impossible whopper compares to the regular whopper
The Video Review
As you can tell from the video, my kids have differing opinions on meat vs. plant based meat, which is probably going to carry on for a while. While my son prefers the flavor of the meaty whopper, my daughter isn’t so keen on the flavor of beef and is fine with having plant based meat even though it is more expensive.
Honestly, when Burger King layers on all the mayonnaise, ketchup, tomatoes and lettuce, the meat doesn’t really play a significant roll in the flavor of the burger. As you could tell when my son tries the impossible burger first, he wasn’t sure if he was eating meat or not. And as my daughter correctly points out, if you haven’t had the beef version before, you might not know that the patty is a plant based one.
Overall, I agree with my son that you can taste a difference between the meat and impossible burger. And if the prices were reversed, if the plant based burger was cheaper than the beef burger, I would be satisfied with eating the plant based burger instead and would probably choose it for the cheaper price. But as it stands now, I’m still a meat eater.
