Fake burger is functionally the same nutrition of animal flesh burger.. Maybe with fewer trans-fats at least? It shouldn't be looked as a healthy option, although it is better morally. Like burgers, it is a sometimes food. Highly processed slop with kinda high protein, nutritionally speaking.
Compared to a fast food burger it tastes slightly worse than a quarter pounder, but way better than a normal McDonalds cheeseburger. Basing my opinion on the Burger King Impossible burger compared to my memory of McD which I don't eat anymore for many reasons.
Makes me shit fireballs, taste alright though
Every now and then when I go to the local Walmart I check what the difference is between regular ground beef and the vegan equivalent. It's gotten within a 20% difference in the past year.
I kinda don't vibe with the whole fake meat thing. Like just give me the vegetables. Something about eating like a fake version of something else just rubs me the wrong way. Like please don't mash up all the vegetables and tofu and make them into something roughly resembling a chicken nugget. Just give em to me straight. I feel the same way about riced cauliflower. If I'm gonna eat cauliflower instead of rice that's fine but I don't want it like, turned into something that looks like rice to make me feel better. Idk. Maybe that's just me

Presumably your decision isn't based on a hardline moral opposition that prevents you from ever eating rice.
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.
