Impossible burger, whos tried it?

I feel like I'm eating more of this alternative stuff than most likely would.
In no particular order, both White Castles I went to in the last two weeks were out of the veggie burger so can't comment on that one.
Had the one at Burger King. If I wasn't so hungry I'd have thrown it out, and I don't do that very often. Bland, bland, and dry.
Best so far was the Beyond burger at Milwaukee Burger Company. Yes, it's loaded with sodium. It's a good, hearty, satisfying patty. I'd say it tastes more like the meatloaf sandwiches I used to eat at Luke's gas stations.
I see the Impossible is now available at Red Robin. I'll check it out soon.

Compared back to back, there is no way miss the difference. Its not bad, but its not meat.
As far as healthier? Its not meat based so it has to be, right......?
Not.

Burger King’s meatless Impossible Whopper will now be available nationwide
Meatless menu items are also available at Del Taco, McDonald’s, White Castle and Little Caesars, but not everyone believes they’re healthier than meat.

It takes a lot of salt to make plants taste good.
They don't taste terrible like some of the veggie attempts I've tried in the past, but they're nowhere near a good black bean burger. It's hard to find a good black bean burger though...
As others have said, why try to taste like meat in the first place? I guess there's a market for it but I just don't get it. It's like NA beer.

In the last week I've had the Qdoba Beyond, Chipotle Sofritas, Cheesecake Factory Impossible, and White Castle Impossible.
Cheesecake Factory was awesome. Pretty sure it was cooked with the regular burgers in regular b urger grease though.
The White Castle was good. Paired well with the smoked cheddar on it. Pricey at $2 though.
Qdoba/Chipotle was forgettable.

popping up all over now. i'm a fan of protein bar - just tried their new spicy korean beyond beef metaballs bowl. they accidentally made it with quinoa even though it's supposed to use cauliflower rice (fine by me, i prefer the quinoa) - it was really good. the texture is enough for me and it was solid in this bowl. too bad it's not really healthier

surprising too see how different some of these are, especially the big mac calories and protein. white castle calories too. these things are kinda all over! wish the beyond stuff was clearly a winner.

Ha, I just had that too. I liked the beyond meatballs more than the steak in that dish, mainly because the original steak was stringy and chewy.

Well, after looking at that, why would anyone want to eat one, unless they were vegetarians?
All those calories and saturated fat are supposedly from the coconut oil they have in them.
i think the consistency is a fair point. you've probably had disappointing beef before - whether steak or something ground up - and i would bet the beyond meatballs are superior to plenty of sad meatball examples out there.
