I ate 12 of these delicious, eco-friendly, ethical little bastards!

>>11464575
Why it called white castle? You dont let niggers in?

Are they better fresh then those frozen ones from the supermarket?

>>11464590
>>/pol/

>>11464595
>buying frozen versions of fast food, which is counter-intuitive because you can just go to the place and order it yourself
Just when I thought Americans could go any further than Uncrustables...

>>11464575
paid ~$25 for a double impossible burger at some fancy chain that was temporarily serving them. It was good but jeez, way too much money.

>>11464610

>>11464595
the supermarket ones with cheese are lame, used to think i didn't like them until i tried the hamburger ones

>>11464606
I love how upset the left is about the NPC meme. And their only response is "I know you are but what am I?" in their typical playground form. You know you're over the target when you start taking flak.

>>11464610

>>11464673
>made with wild caught alaskan seafood
what happened to it being shrimp?

>>11464606
>>11464668
You're both fucking insufferable.

>>11464575
> Eating artificial chemical paste process food and pretending it's healthy

Vegans already have enough health problems without eating that artificial cancer "meat" products. The last thing we need is another man made chemistry experiment.

>>11464711
>t. colon cancer sufferer

>>11464711
It's actually made from potatoes. Look into it yourself before making false assumptions.

I tried some kind of impossible burger thing and I was surprised by how decent it was. Still lacks a lot of the depth of flavor of real meat, but it's at least on-par with the dry, gray mystery-meat patties they use at Burger King or McDonalds. Not up to par with better restaurant patties, but an improvement over previous fake meats.

>>11464711

Remember "Veat?" products that were popular years ago? Turned out the fake chemical meat was way worse for you than just real meats. Google: Veat & colon pollyps

White castle marketing please go away.

Your food is dated and gives people diareah.

You want to reinvent your brand? How about serve meat patties that aren't paper thin.

How about sell a combo breakfast slider that has sausage and bacon so I don't have to explain it to the retarded cashier's you hire for pennies only to have them fuck it up?

How about offer additional condiments?

Mustard doesn't go bad and ketchup sells like sex.

You're product made sense when it was like 75 cents for a slider. For a buck and some change you can get fucked, much better offerings at literally whatever accross the street.

>>11464734

Doesn't matter if it starts out as potatoes or soy... after all that chemical extraction & processing, it becomes a science experiment. I'd prefer not to be a guinea pig.

>>11464748
Nothing comes up

>>11464774
The Impossible Burger is made from simple ingredients found in nature, including wheat protein, coconut oil, potato protein, and heme. Never heard of heme? Heme is responsible for the characteristic of taste and aroma of meat. It catalyzes all the flavors when meat is cooked. Heme is exceptionally abundant in animal muscle, and it’s a basic building block of life in all organisms, including plants. We discovered how to take heme from plants and produce it using fermentation -- similar to the method that’s been used to make Belgian beer for nearly a thousand years. Adding heme to the Impossible Burger makes it a carnivore’s delight. Super tasty, super safe.

>>11464748

This. If you really crave the juicy flavor of beef, just eat beef. Chemically processed slime meat is probably way worse for the environment and your health.

>>11464799
Heme is an iron-containing molecule that occurs naturally in every single plant and animal. It’s an essential molecular building block of life. Heme gives your blood its ability to carry oxygen. It’s found in all living organisms, and it's been consumed every day—heck, every second—for hundreds of thousands of years..

Heme is super abundant in animal muscle, and that's what makes a burger so flavorful. It's also why meat is a particularly good source of iron. The heme found in animal muscle is carried by a protein called myoglobin.

Plants, particularly nitrogen-fixing plants and legumes, also have heme. The heme found in these plants is carried by leghemoglobin, which is closely related to myoglobin. Leghemoglobin in the soy plant is called soy leghemoglobin. The heme molecule in plant-based heme is atom-for-atom identical to the heme molecule found in meat. It’s what makes the Impossible Burger so rich and decadent.


Do your own research before making false claims.

>>11464795

THANKS SHILL MARKETER!!!! I believe that your chemical paste meat is 1000% super safe!

I wanna go out and eat nothing but Impossible Burgers(tm) now!!!!!

>>11464804

You're trying way too hard, obvious shill.

>>11464810
it isn't chemical paste meat, it's derived from plants. I'm not a shill, I just googled "how is the impossible burger made?"
and I found this link

https://impossiblefoods.com/faq/

>>11464810
>I wanna go out and eat nothing but Impossible Burgers(tm) now!!!!!

ME TOO!!!!

THEY TASTE DELICOUS!!! ALMOST LIKE REAL MEAT!!!

Go out to your local White Castle and try one today! I know I will!

>>11464810
You're welcome. Also go vegan or I'll fucking rape your eye holes.

>>11464821
>https://impossiblefoods.com/faq/

Thanks for the link, Impossible foods intern! I'm sure glad your product is safe for human consumption and has zero unforeseen side effects!

>>11464795


I would try it.

>>11464775


Is that Ikea? I will give them my business.

>>11464668
>he really thinks he's any different

There's like 10 people in the world, we all just wear different faces. You aren't special and "NPC" is just the zoomer word for "sheeple."

>>11464848
Specifically what ingredient or processing technique is the source of your concern?

>>11464848
No I'm just a vegan who also wanted to know what it was made from before I tried it the first time. If it really was a bunch of chemicals put together in some kind of scientific lab experiment, I wouldn't have gone out of my way to eat it.

Also, if I was a shill for this company I wouldn't be mentioning that the JUST company is coming out with its own line of faux meats, the chicken specifically is derived from a chicken feather!

>>11464610
The only time I've seen people eat Uncrustables was at public school, when kids were too picky for the regular slop.

>>11464874
This is going to change everything. I bet A bunch of right wing teaparty faggots will be sold into thinking it is un-American and will stick to eating Mcdonalds and animal dicks.

>>11464774
Oh no chemicals and processing!!!

You sound like a fucking christfag, it’s literally just a bunch of oils and shit

>>11464874


Wow that is amazing, genuinely.

I heard of invitro meat

but with a feather? God damn.

>>11464870
Anything that requires more than 3 syllables

>>11464899
I don't really care about politics but this will definitely help the world. Especially those countries whose lands are barren and depend solely on grains to survive, this type of technology can definitely help.

>>11464905
There's a youtube video out there that talks about it in greater depth if you're interested.

>>11464926


Yes I would be interesting to hear more because really the company should be launching a deal with KFC et all to completely shift the market by 2022

>>11464926


Has the company approached the major franchise heads?

>>11464810
>THANKS SHILL MARKETER!!!! I believe that your chemical paste meat is 1000% super safe!

This guy gets it.

>>11464926


It will make them billionaires.

and while we know these major companies arent ethical

transforming them from the inside is the fastest ticket to idealogical transformation of the public.

Did Rick from Rick and Morty go Vegan?

>>11464920
photosynthesis concerns me

>>11464942
>>11464955
Supposedly there is some dissension between the meat industry and JUST. Similar to the whole dairy phenomenon, with the dairy company trying to get alternative milk companies to take the name "milk" and "cheese" off their products, I think the meat industry is doing the same with JUST. I remember target took off all of their JUST mayo products off the shelf because the big mayo companies sent false accusations that these products were causing salmonella to the users, but really JUST was selling off the shelves like candy while the other brands weren't moving product. It all boils down to profits sadly, they don't care to better the world, and if some new company comes in that doesn't have as much power and big names to back them up, they can easily be bullied into not putting for product. It's a terrible situation really.

This is the 2nd video that came up from searching JUST meat

>>11464970
There's a lot of vegan ideology in rick and morty
S4 they will both be vegan. Rick states that he has always been vegan.
https://www.plantbasednews.org/post/watch-morty-goes-vegan-exploring-animal-rights-in-rick-and-morty

>>11465003


Have they approached Wholefoods and Waitrose?

Those two brands would adopt them.

>>11464610
Well if you don’t have a white castle in your area but you want the sliders, that’s your best option

>>11465009

Excellent.

>>11465003
So where is their youtube cooking channel to combat propaganda and see the meats being used in real time?

>>11465014
From what I've heard JUST is really putting forth the effort to make sure everything is good. To make sure there wont be any accidents or health issues that surface up later. This type of product can either really help push veganism or plant based diets, or it can really harm them if they don't really put forth the effort in perfecting their technique. I'd rather wait another 4-5 years letting them get it down perfectly, than them rushing it, having some serious health issues occur and giving people a perfect opportunity to try and bring down the whole vegan movement.

>>11465030
Apparently they're going the seafood route too. I'm excited.

>>11465041


Great stuff. Brilliant.

>>11464580

>cheese
>ethical or eco-friendly

spotted the vegetarian

>>11465078
That's just a picture from Google.

>>11465111
Your pic isn't wrong. As a meat-eater, I kinda respect vegans for actually following their beliefs. Non-vegan vegetarianism is pure cognitive dissonance.

You can tell this was just a photo op because this nutless retard left all the stems in

>>11464851
i was going to be pedantic about eating a smoothie bowl with cherry stones and various stems in it but I mainly can't see the appeal of having hairs from the kiwi skin mixing into the smoothie

>>11465179
respect is a meme. it's a buzzword for when people want to sound smarter than a teenage girl saying she "likes" or "dislikes" something, artificial gauge that's been blown up to somehow be meaningful even in high level positions of work.
you don't have to respect shit, just obey what you're told, regardless if you like it or dislike it. i realize this comparison doesn't work for 100% of things, i only gave one example, but fuck i hate "respect" and know anybody who uses it is a liar

>>11465282

How's it feel to be retarded?

Yes, please, I would love to get colon cancer from eating artificial chemical paste instead of real food.

>>11465313
Woah, that's probably the only cool vegan thing I've ever seen posted.

>>11465317

>>11464668

>>11465328
What about this?

>>11465317
> pink slime made of meat = bad!
> pink slime made of potatoes & 32 other chemicals = great!

Are americans this stupid?

>>11465345
Not the same as the resolute negress wielding an M16

>>11465369
What about this

>>11465380
I have a feeling we've hit the peak and we can only go downhill from here.

>>11464680
Probably not just shrimp, or not enough shrimp inside to class it as shrimp

>>11465399
Well shit

lol kill yourselves

OH SAY CAN YOU SEE

I get the concept that people want it to exist, but people who it? They just lose all my respect, and you need to care that you have my respect, I'm THAT important.

>>11465334
>animals that domesticated are doing better than animals that didn't

It's almost like domestication is a good strategy.

>>11464610
White Castle isn't even in my fucking state as far as I can tell

>>11464575
two things
why is it impossible?
and also, it just looks fucking disgusting.
is this the famous american cuisine we are always hearing about?

>>11464761
You sound really butthurt but you do have valid points

>>11465864
It is labeled as a shrimp roll, then below it says made with seafood, rather than shrimp.

>>11464580
That’s 3600 calories

>>11464874
>30% cheaper

Sold

>>11466190
This anon has a point. It doesn't even look like shrimp either

>>11464575
i'm all for meat alternatives that actually taste good but fuck, that looks like shit on a bun.

>>11466202
anons gotta eat

>>11466322
>meat alternative
ah, is that what it is?

>>11466322
It's pretty good. The impossible burgers are pretty tasty.

>>11464874
This is pretty neat, I just wish they'd drop the rhetoric and just come out saying they're doing it. It comes off as pretty disingenuous when you make a bunch of "facts" for why ordinary meat is bad when you could just leave that out and sell your product through it's own novelty.

White Castle is the worst fast food "deal" around.

>>11464610
Fuck that, asians had uncrustables WAY before they came out in the states.

>>11467020
Poor tastelette detected

>>11467749
I can't tell if you're retarded or a shill.

White castle has no good deals and even the people who like white castle will tell you it's the worst fast food joints out there.

They need to lower price or improve their staple product.

you can use your upgraded routines to "no, you!" the "nazis" but it's all so transparent.

>>11464575

I'd totally be all over this shit if they actually made it cheaper than ground beef here. I honestly don't mind these "beyond/impossible/etc" style grown meat, but their prices put me way off.

>>11464610
nigga somehow frozen whitecastle burgers are good

>>11470367
When you go fishing only like 10% of the fish you catch is sold as fish. The rest is ground up and made into fish sticks, catfood, gas station sushi, and other various seafoods.

>>11464610
The nearest white castle is a 40 hour drive but it's 2 minutes to the nearest wal mart that sells them frozen
