The prices for beyond/impossible are 1:1 with real ground beef at my local grocerywhore.

The choice is so easy.

"the prices are 1:1 with real ground beef"

Okay, does it provide the same nutrients at the same amount of higher? Even then you're comparing to ground beef, which is too expensive on its own already

I'll stick to my vegetarian diet

I wish those worked for me. It's an autistic texture thing for me, so anytime I try substitutes I nearly gag.

I think as something like a burger it's not that great but stuff like shepherds pie or meatballs where I'm adding other ingredients and seasoning it's indistinguishable. I even fooled my whole family with some homemade beyond meatballs.

Now I kinda wanna try a hamburger lasagna.
