Many BKs near me removed it from their menu

I've had the Impossible Whopper, it's very impressive that it has no meat in it given how it tastes. But I still prefer the real thing and it does taste a little weird. If I was a vegan I would not eat it regularly because I don't want to grow tits, and it's cooked on a grill with meat.

>cooked on a grill with meat
Exactly why it's been removed from a lot of BKs.

The Impossible Whopper has more of a char grilled taste, more of a cookout flex if you will.

>>15671971
>and it's cooked on a grill with meat.
This is a retard take. Instead of enjoying vegan fast food burgers that actually have broad appeal potential, they bitch about their food being cooked the same place meat is cooked until there is one less vegan option near them.

veganism is a retard take

>>15671981
This, they're actually p gud

Not the Whopper, but I've had Impossible Burgers in general. It does taste like meat, but it tastes like the wrong kind of meat. Instead of tasting like burgers, I find that it actually tastes closer to breakfast sausage.

I'm getting more of a seared bite on the Impossible Whopper, than I'm getting on the actual Who- no no no no no no no no.... No please don't say that no no no... No. Nonononono. No no nono no no. NONO NO NONO NO NOOOOO. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not gonna trip. I wanted to come in a 100% hater.

I'mma tell you off the top. I wanted to take a bite of this and be like 'ehhh nah nah it it'- I'mma just flat out say it; your Impossible Whopper BK, IS BETTER THAN YOUR ACTUAL WHOPPER BK. YOUR IMPOSSIBLE WHOPPER BK IS BETTER THAN YOUR ACTUAL WHOPPER BK. IT HAS A MORE SEARED TASTE.

IT'S MORE OF A COOKOUT FLEX. IT JUST TASTES BETTER. Get over here. You get back in the bag. BK. That bite is so flavorful my m- and the fact that it works so well, it literally compliments the lettuce. Like I'm not even mad that I'm bittin' up, and I'm not even mad, that I'm eating lettuce right now and tomatoes.

You can really taste the onion because the sear, on this plant based situation right here, it's so strong and you barely get onion but the onion's there so you get a crunch off it, with soft bun action and SBA? BK, YOU'RE ONTO SOMETHING, AND I LIKE WHERE YOU, YOU GOIN' BK, THE IMPOSSIBLE WHOPPER SON

I haven't had it but I've had a Beyond Meat burger and it was okay. Tasted pretty good with all the toppings on it but the patty itself clearly tastes like fake meat when you eat it on its own.

You have no idea what you're talking about. It's still at every BK I've been to.

>how do I language
One anon said many Burger King locations removed it from their menu. He's only speaking for his local area. Another anon made a more general statement by saying a "lot" of them discontinued it. "Many" and "lot" can mean anything to them. It could be fifty, it could be a hundred, it could even be five hundred, and it could even be twenty-six for all I care.

There are over 7000 Burger King locations in the US alone. 7257 if you trust the first result on Google. Even if hundreds of Burger King locations (which is a lot, in my opinion) discontinued the Impossible Whopper, it's still entirely possible for you to encounter the other several thousand locations that still have it.

Eat shit and fall off your truck.

>>15672415
doesnt it bother anyone that there are only 800 usda meat packing facilities and over 7000 burger kings?

>>15672427
It only gets bothersome when you factor in all the other fast food restaurants, not just BK.

Why are you so hellbent on lying about a plant burger, samefag?

it doesn't evens sense that they would stop selling them at any locations, considering have a few frozen in the freezer takes up almost no space, they last forever while frozen, and come from the same distribution that BK gets all their crap from.
why make a lie so laughably retarded and easily refutable with a single Google search? pic related

>implying I even care about the burger
I just don't like it when people fight anecdote with anecdote, especially when they aren't even direct contradictions. You're the only one to actually bring facts, which I appreciate, but that should've been the answer to begin with.

>my BKs don't have it
>nuh-uh, I'm a trucker and I've had it
This is stupid and makes no sense.

>my BKs don't have it
>(You): According to official Impossible sources, all BK locations have it
Then the argument either ends there, or the people asserting that their locations don't have it provide more solid proof.

My take (prior to your reply) was "shit, it doesn't seem that unbelievable for certain locations to not have it."

>>15672565
>their locations don't have it provide more solid proof.
Prove something doesn't exist?

>>15672002
why?

>>15672415
why are niggas so mean
what did he do to you anon

>>15671981
Seared bait.

>>15671948
The viral marketing helped this thing to fail even harder than it would have organically.

Let this be a lesson to marketing people. The world hates you and wants you raped, or dead.

>wants you raped, or dead.

>>15673284
>it failed
huh, that's why it was wilder successful, increase foot traffic at BK by a huge margin, has been copycatted at almost every fast food restaurant, even McDonald's is making their own version of it, and still has advertisements on TV right?
Yeah anon good call, that totally makes sense.

>I say things that I wish were true without any evidence to back it up
lmao at your sad life

is this just a meme at this point??
we've had over a hundred threads about this sandwich.... why the fuck can't you just bump another thread instead of making the same fucking thread every day

>>15673723
It wasn’t “wilder” successful, and the company literally paid for retailers to carry it. And it flopped. They’ve lost billions and nobody wants the fake meat.

But I love your amateur psychology. It’s how you can always tell a shill.

You are so incredibly autistic.

It’s flopping hard, you’re the proof. Notice none of these articles note that sales are only about 20% what they projected. It’s not enough to make a profit.

Sorry idiot, this heavily processed fake meat is doomed. And perhaps the saddest life is yours, belching out PR about fake meat on a racist Internet site for a penny a post. Sad!

>>15671965
My local BK never even advertised it but this is a beef raising state.

Only the original Whopper's heavily processed fake meat for you, right?

They're not horrible, but they for sure taste weird. I'm not getting another.
