    i just searched and found tons of entries. maybe a typo in your search?

    I haven't tried it as it's a bit higher calorie than other protein options. I likely will soon enough.

    Yeah, I like it! I don't have them super often, but enjoy them when I do.

    As a vegan gluten free guy, I really like them but they’re expensive and processed so that limits my purchases of them. That being said, for this type of product, they’re at the top!

    I work them into my diet with regularity. My wife, who still eats meat, likes them as well, so it's a nice, easy meal that I can make for both of us (as I've been vegetarian a long time). I like them with cheese on wheat buns with steamed broccoli on the side.

    We had them yesterday for July 4th. I think they are a decent swap out for actual burgers. Agree that they are pricey. I will only get them as a treat and when on sale.

    I tried three restaurants with beyond meat...
    A&W 6/10
    Burger King 8/10
    Tim Hortons 4/10 (Canada chain)

    Not convinced at all.

    I tried it for the first time yesterday. It's finally arrived in my country, but we only get their beef crumbles so far, not the actual burger. I made tacos with them. They are a lot leaner than their burgers, so they were a little dry, but they were flavorful and passed well as a meat replacement. They tasted close when having plain and were pretty indistinguishable when actually put together in the taco. I went to the store and bought two more packs.

    I tried the Beyond Burger at Carl's Jr. It was delicious, but it also had a slice of cheese and lots of mayo and secret sauce. How do you vegans dress yours up? I was thinking maybe some BBQ sauce and mushrooms.

    We have beyond meat at several fast food places. A&W has it for burgers (summer last year) and now Tim Hortons for Sausages. I am sure there are others now too.

    They are fine. I treat it no different than a meat burger.

    At the grocery store it is almost 8 dollars
    For two patties. Crazy.

    To be honest, I would still prefer the Licks Nature burger.

    I've never 'lined up' to have one that is for sure.

    I don't consume meat - don't wish to eat 'red' meat and don't like the taste of meat either.

    I don't think I'd enjoy the 'Beyond Meat' items due to the fact that they are suppose to taste like the real thing.

    I do, however, love veggie burgers, etc., Most of the ones I've ever tried are super tasty and don't taste like meat in the least!
