Talking about impossible and beyond meat, of course. I like their taste, so I’m not one of those burger fash who complains about not being able to taste the flesh wounds of their victims. Just need the skinny on how it compares in terms of it’s nutrient quality, health factors in terms of contaminants in production or as a result of (PFAS, lead), and the impact on the environment. I’m sure the production of fake borg is better than maintaining and slaughtering cows, but relative to other foods how much better is it?


Yeah, primarily pea protein. I like the dehydrated stuff personally because it’s convenient to buy a lot and stick it in the pantry instead of dealing with meat-like shelf life. And there are all kinds of things you can do during rehydration to tweak what you’re making.
The stuff we use is basically just kept frozen until used but yeah if it’s a choice between dry or fridge storage i’d get the dry goods instead
That might even cook better since the beyond crumble seems to render out a lot of liquid when it’s cooked so it’s hard to get it to a browned or crisped consistency
