I only tried Beyond Meat once when A&W came out with their Beyond Burger. At first I thought “Hey this is not bad?” But then after a minute or so, I noticed a kind of aftertaste I didn’t care for.

I guess these days, they make other things like sausage and chicken substitutes, and I haven’t tried those. But there are a lot of other non-meat burger options these days.

It’s so expensive that I have only tried it when buying from restaurants. I wouldn’t buy them directly because they’re not affordable nor being sold in a place close to me.

I get it occasionally. It’s vegan junk food, something for a treat but not every meal. And when I do decide to make some mince, I usually go for the Impossible light. Or just use tvp when I’m cooking for myself.

I’ve been buying more and more bean burgers again. I think they just taste better then meat replicas.

It’s a shame; they’re expensive and yet the best-tasting meat substitute I’ve tried. I especially enjoy their minced meat, for home-made dumplings and belyashi, although I only make them like twice a year.

I actually prefer Beyond to beef burgers, and back when beef prices were soaring, they cost about the same. But yes, they need to lower the price.
