Wow! how come I am not suing after eating one of those crappy impossible burgers. It was awful!

(actually I am not that stupid and never ate one, but I will sue anyway)

Is there a vegsn priest or something that can inspect a place and say it is ok to eat there.

Like a restaurant asking the Jewish community to come by and inspect the restaurant for Kosher.

Declare the restaurant “Vosher”

Burger King uses a conveyor belt to move the burgers through the “flames”.

After the belt they slide down a short shoot into a holding pan.

They are then, pan and all, put in a warming area.

The conveyor belt is like a rolling grill with bars that leave the char marks.

I believe he is complaining that the same conveyor belt is used for regular burgers and the plant based.

They do not “sit in the same grease” and the amount of animal products that touch the plant-based patties is minimal.

McDonalds, on the other hand, has a big flat metal griddle that all burgers (and eggs for Egg McMuffins) get cooked on. IF McDonalds ever goes “plant based” they will have to serious re-engineer their gill areas.

What’s Red Robin, White Castle and Applebee’s doing with their Impossible burgers? Don’t they have those on their menus, too?

WAIT , I thought their burgers were NOT cooked on a Grill

Their burgers are cooked on grills, and they tell you that their impossible meat burgers are cooked on grills.

They also give you the option to have your impossible meat burgers NOT cooked on grills.

It was only a matter of time before some Vegan or leftist was going to try and destroy whatever good may have come from this. They always do.

Bingo :) ...it was probably a deliberate consideration in the overall process. They declare the ingredients but not the process of cooking.

Typical marketing, not telling the entire truth.

Even if it tastes the same - I want protein, not plants.

The perpetual victim, aided by the shyster lawyer, once again seeks to tear down. These people never create. They are never grateful, they always seek to tear down and destroy the work of others.

They’re cooked on a vented grill, not a flat-top griddle like Mickey Ds.

“bought an Impossible Whopper, a plant-based alternative to Burger King’s regular Whopper”

All beef in your supermarket is plant based because the cattle are eating a vegetarian diet. Chickens and pigs pretty much the same vegetarian diets in our Agri-Businesses, though on the family farm they are fed any table scraps in addition to feed. A while back I fed my chickens just wheat from a neighboring farm and they did great.

This reminds me of an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation where the Enterprise visited a planet with humanoid aliens that are neither male or female.

Commander Riker (Number Wood) started getting the hots for one of the aliens, and was ready to dump his Starfleet career to be with it.

Said alien was played on this episode by a female actress.

The writers and producers wanted to have some homosexual representation on their show, and put this out.

of COURSE......

Gay viewers complained about the alien being played by a female actress. If they wanted to make a statement, they should have had a male actor play the alien.

It’s IMPOSSIBLE to please these brain damaged leftist lunatics, so we should never even try!

As an old man with only 2/3 of a farter following so far successful surgery for colon cancer your post tempts me to tell the true story from college fraternity days of the finest, most hideously toxic, fart I ever cut. Worst of all, with that great day included, I’ve always been hugely proud of it and have bragged excessively about it.
