Did anyone ever tried a vegan burger or vegan ^^meat^^.I’m wondering if it’s good

I have, they're awful. And also extremely bad for you, with a tonne of salt. Like even worse than your usual fast food burger.

Gentlemen, please, settle down. We can easily settle this discussion right now - why don't we just split it even and combine our forces together to make the perfect Salade niçoise instead.

I think that's debatable depending on what nutrients, etc. you look at. Plant-based meat has more salt and is more heavily processed, but contains less saturated fats and more of some nutrients. I don't enjoy meat for the nutritional value and/or lack thereof though, I just like its taste and texture, which just can't compare to the simulated stuff in my opinion.

yeah , I had a look at google and asked it if vegans burgers where more healty and most website seem to say ''probably not''.

These are the ingredients of my non-meat-meat:

Water, Pea Protein, Canola Oil, Coconut Oil, Natural Flavors, Less Than 2% Of Modified Cellulose (From Plant Fiber), Sea Salt, Vinegar, Beet Powder (Color), Cane Sugar, Cherry Powder (To Promote Color Retention

Even with non-meat, there's a difference between the stuff you cook at home and the stuff you buy at Burger King.
There's probably a humongous list of foreign sounding words making up those Burger King patties.

Since when exactly do vegans care about health?

Ever heard of Forks Over Knives, What The Health, Game Changers etc.? For a start.

Comparison between a vegan burger and an actual meat burger:

100 grams (3.5 ounces) of lean ground beef (10% fat) contains:

-217 calories
-12 g fat (5 g saturated)
-90 mg cholesterol
-70 mg sodium
-0 g carbohydrate
-0 g fiber
-26 g protein


The 4-ounce Impossible Burger 2.0 comes pretty close to beef, nutritionally:

-240 calories
-14 g fat (8 g saturated)
-0 g cholesterol
-370 mg sodium
-9 g carbohydrate
-3 g fiber
-19 g protein

Mmmm... Salty fat fake meaty badness!

Vegans care what everyone else eats, that's why they quite often like to go out of their way to shove their ideals in other people's faces while at the same time being giant hypocrites pretending their dietary choices are somehow the best for everyone.

That's why this thread is still going, as the average person minding their own business has gotten tired of the militant vegans always preaching to the lowly meat-eaters and omnivores how much better they think their vegetable religion is.

To the point it has become a long standing joke of:

"How do you know someone is vegan/vegetarian?"

"Oh don't worry, they will gladly tell you for no reason within 5 minutes of meeting them for the first time."

I believe that in the end meat will be less and less of a possibility as we can't really sustain it. But what do I know? :P

I've tried cutting down on meat. I don't know why, maybe I'm just lazy and a lot of greens seem to keep better. But I will probably never stop it entirely, but I believe I've cut down more than 50% of the meat I used to eat.

I also do believe in balance. Don't remove anything totally, the same can then be said about don't 100% add another thing! :P
