Of Course Beef Is Vegetarian! The ingredients that go into cattle feed consist of roughages, grains, and oilseeds. No animal products!
Six years ago, Stanford’s professor Dr. Pat Brown set out to create an “uncompromisingly delicious” meat from plant-based materials. Last year, they debuted their Impossible Burger, which looks like meat. Brown’s company has announced a partnership with a chain restaurant, Bareburger.
J. Kenji López-Alt, managing culinary director of Serious Eats, has taken a bite out of both burgers. “These things are a big step up from previous faux-meat burgers, though they still have a way to go before they’re going to fool anyone who eats meat critically on a regular basis,” he says. “Tasted on their own, they have their problems, but served the right way—cooked and topped—they become more successful.”
