Talking about impossible and beyond meat, of course. I like their taste, so I’m not one of those burger fash who complains about not being able to taste the flesh wounds of their victims. Just need the skinny on how it compares in terms of it’s nutrient quality, health factors in terms of contaminants in production or as a result of (PFAS, lead), and the impact on the environment. I’m sure the production of fake borg is better than maintaining and slaughtering cows, but relative to other foods how much better is it?

I like em both, sometimes they go on sale and are comparable to the price of actual meat so I stock up, but usually the only problem is that they're too expensive.

I've tried a couple times to figure out how to replicate the taste and texture with bulk tvp, need to do more work on this cuz tvp is super cheap and I think I can beat the price of ground beef with it if I can just get it dialed in.
