To raise cows, you need crop. So real burgers already include the suffering from cropping, even more so because you need a lot more crop per calorie of you have a cow between you and the plant.
Now I want to emphasis that guilt is not a good reason to start with beyond meat.
The desire to try to do a nice thing can be, but as a vegetarian, it's important that people are not pushed out of meat because of some negative emotion.
I'd rather have happy meat eaters than frutsrated veggies.
But give it a try, just for curiosity sake.
I like the taste of BM, but find them hard to digest.
Also remember it's still process food, and organic free range steak is likely healthier.
