Impossible burgers are way better. Can't stand beyond meat.

Impossible meat with ketchup, mustard, lettuce, tomato, etc., tastes just like a beef burger to me. If impossible patties were cheaper than beef patties at the supermarket I would definitely buy them.

I find Beyond Burgers to taste better than regular beef burgers.

Impossible burgers are an order of magnitude better tasting than any other meat replacement I've tried. Beyond burgers are hilariously worse.

Impossible Burgers are the best-tasting non-meat burgers I've had.

Impossible burgers are ridiculously close to meat and worth a try. Beyond Burgers are more noticeably different than meat.

A restaurant near me started serving impossible burgers a couple weeks ago. Since I have gout I am always trying beef and pork replacements.Impossible burger’s patty is on par with a McDonald’s quarter pounder. Which is a reasonable accomplishment. It’s acceptable and enjoyable as a cheap burger. But it is not gonna fool anyone who really enjoys a good burger.Which would be fine if people would stop overhyping it.

honestly I don't really see the point of eating a burger that doesn't taste or feel like a burger. I'd prefer to eat meat less often than try a subsitute
