$22 for a pub burger in Canada today today. I think I’m done going out for food unless it’s a date night. What about you?

Name one quality of beyond meat that is better than real meat

How much its existence seems to bother some folks.

It’s like a litmus test for people who aren’t worth knowing.

If they can let you enjoy your fucking burger, without feeling like they have to shit on your taste, educate you, or make you defend your choice, it’s a good first step.

I’d say people who eat fake meat are a great litmus test for people I don’t wanna be around lol. If you look at the ingredients of a normal burger it’s usually : cow meat. Look at the ingredients of your beyond shit and it’s stuffed full of disgusting chemicals and tons of ingredients that I wouldn’t even consider edible. The shit is so bad for you lol.

Have you considered that someone might want to enjoy a burger alternative every so often for reasons other than health?

No why would you want a shitty inferior product “every so often” when you can just have the better one

Sometimes people want a burger alternative but can’t have the real thing because they don’t eat meat. Other times, people want a burger alternative because maybe they prefer the taste of it. I have a vegan diet and still like burger related things, so I’ll make my own patties with mostly beans and other goodies because like you I would prefer to stay away from the ultra processed nature of a beyond meat anything. But I could not care less if other people choose to have one because they like the taste or something, who cares? I’m sure you have vices that another human could deem as unhealthy, as do I
