Gave it a go today and I honestly think it's as good or better than the traditional whopper. I only got the one and wish I'd gotten two because it made me feel full without feeling gross.

Impossible!

I want my meat grown in a petri dish from animal cells. Mmmmm, tasty looking meatball!

Really, how would you feel about eating meat grown in a lab? Would you try it? Does it matter?
I would definitely try an impossible burger. And I would probably try that frankenmeat from Memphis meats.

I would at least give it a try if they presented it in a similar manner as the Impossible Whopper. I really came down to being in the drive-thru, seeing it on the menu and thinking "Meh, for $5 I'll give it a shot". I'm one of those people who loves steak but doesn't care to see how it's made, but wouldn't stop eating it because I watched the cow get butchered.

I'd eat them after about 10 years of public testing. I feel like this is one of those things where they realize that the fake meat burgers were causing cancer or some shit.

I really can't help but wonder what's in them because I've never craved something so hard. Like, the flavor was good, but it's not something I'd typically still be thinking about days later.

In the interest of being fair....

Hey, if they've got a burger made from vegetables it's only right that they invent cauliflower that's really made from bacon, right?

Correct.

I started looking into it and I guess KFC has plant based chicken coming to a larger test market, and McDonalds has a plant based burger in Canada as well.
