I ate a couple of the Impossible Sliders from White Castle a couple of months ago. They definitely smell and taste more beef-like than any other plant-based burger.
I had read about their effort to produce heme in the lab. This article [1] is interesting as it identifies that Impossible Foods has engineered the methylotrophic yeast, Pichia Pastoris [2], to produce Soy Leghemoglobin Protein.
