Personally I don't know of anyone who eats the fake beef in my social circle. They are pretty horrific when you look at the ingredients: Tertiary butylhydroquinone, Erythosine, Propylene glycol, Ferric orthophosphate. Ugh.

But lentils, carrots, potatos, brocolli, peas, beans, onions, mushrooms, nuts -- that's fantastic.

One real downside of Beyond/Impossible is that every restaurant I've been to that had a decent plant-based burger (i.e, their own veggie patty) has just switched to ordering one of the big two.

Stuff tastes less interesting now.
