The few times I go out for fast burgers, I'm not wasting time on some shitty veggie burger, I'm going for the shitty meat burger. That's why I'm there. But I guess if you consume this shit everyday, or close to it, maybe trying the veggie option every now and then isn't such a bad idea.

I don't get your angle here. Are you suggesting they should try to attract customers they already have instead of trying to get new customers? How does that make any sense?

I used burger king as my go to joint for the past 2 odd years ever since I found out they had veggie burgers. It helped cut some calories out of my meals when I was stuck driving around. Saved me a few dollars too, it was $5.79 for a medium meal versus ~$7.

I havent tried this burger specifically but I have had an impossible burger. The only point in eating it is to be ethical. At the same time, it really does taste like the real thing. It's not healthier though. I got it for novelty and might continue to get it since i have no shortage of money.
