I had heard about the “Impossible
Burger” for some time and had been looking to try it out but it was
always hard to find, that was until now that Burger King announced
they are selling the Impossible Whopper.
Basically it is a Whopper but instead
of the regular beef patty, it has the Impossible patty which is plant
based so it does not contain meat. This is good news for people who
don't eat meat since it gives them more options to choose from at
places like Burger King.
The main ingredients of the burger are
water, soy protein concentrate, coconut oil, sunflower oil, and
natural flavors. Something to note, the Impossible Whopper is not
supposed to be more healthy compared to the regular Whopper in fact,
the nutrition stats are pretty similar, it is just supposed to be an
alternative to meat while replicating the flavor.
So how does it stack up? Upon
appearance, to me it looked more like a Boca Burger than a regular
burger. For the taste, it was ok. Comparing it to frozen plant based
burgers like Boca and Morning Star, I would say it is better than
those, but not as good as a traditional beef burger. I was able to
eat the whole thing and I was satisfied, but it is not something I
would necessarily rush back to order again.
Since the nutrition and cost are similar, given the option I would probably go with the regular Whopper
based on the taste. But if you are trying to avoid eating meat and
you happen to find yourself at a Burger King restaurant, the
Impossible Whopper is a good option.
