Do they publish the nutrition info on it?
Like how many carbs this “Impossible Burger” has?

Diabetics might like to know.

“A traditional Whopper has 660 calories, 40 grams of fat (12 of which are saturated) and 28 grams of protein.

“The Impossible Whopper clocks in at 630 calories, 34 grams of fat (11 saturated) and 25 grams of protein, so it’s pretty similar from a macro nutritional standpoint. However, the Impossible Whopper has 58 grams of carbs to the traditional Whopper’s 49. It also has more sodium.

According to Impossible Foods, one 4-ounce Impossible burger patty contains 240 calories, 19 grams of protein, 9 grams of carbohydrates (3 grams of which are fiber), and 14 grams of fat (0 grams of which are trans fat).

Compare that to one 4-ounce grass-fed burger patty, which, according to the USDA, contains 224 calories, 22 grams of protein, 0 grams of carbohydrates (and so 0 grams of fiber), and 14 grams of fat (0.8 grams of which are trans fat, but the natural kind, and yes there are natural forms of trans fat).

So is the Impossible burger healthy? Sure. Is it healthier than a grass-fed beef burger? Well, no. Because there’s nothing really all that wrong with the occasional grass-fed beef burger either.

Diabetics should avoid places like Burger King in general.
