    Username checks out.

    FWIW, I’ve reduced my beef consumption by like, probably, 70% since I started buying Beyond/Impossible stuff. Incremental change is possible; doesn’t have to be all or nothing / all at once.

      My kids actually prefer Impossible over beef, I’m cool with it, I’m not strictly vegetarian, but I don’t have to have meat all the time.

        My ex was a vegetarian, so I made an effort. Some of those efforts stuck, and I’m okay with that. Even a reduction is a net benefit. Just wish it was less expensive, but I do stock up when it’s on sale.

        I’ve not tried those, but I’ve heard similar. Will have to check them out.

        Do they cook like Impossible/Beyond? The neices and nephews love it in Hamburger Helper or tacos, though I also use TVP grounds for “instant tacos” (as they like to call them lol).

          Ohhh, no, they would not. It’s usually just a patty. If you’re using a ground beef replacer, stick with the Impossible.

            Cool thanks. Will definitely try them as burgers as I have heard good things about that style. Will stick to the impossible for the kids meals haha.
