    Genuine question: Does anyone actually find the Beyond Meat products to be a suitable replacement for meat? Like, I gave it a shot intentially once, and didn’t really like it, but I also once got given it accedently at a fast food place and didn’t look at the packaging. When I bit into it, I thought the meat had gone off or something, and didn’t realize what had happened until I tried to return it. Its not like I’m against cutting back on meat or that, but I’d rather have something like a tofu burger over Beyond Meat.

      I think Beyond Burgers are so good they entirely negate the need for meat based burgers. In fact I’ve had multiple vegan and veggie friends say they can’t eat them because they’re too meat-like.

      They’re alright, but mostly because they are an alternative to endless tofu. They had a competitor who did “chicken” chunks that really did taste remarkably close to shitty, greasy chicken.
