I’m vegan and I am so sick of this argument. Who’s eating burgers to be healthy? The last thing I’m thinking about when buying Beyond burgers is health. 😂
Burgers can be healthy, it’s just meat and salad on a bun. What’s unhealthy about a burger, you can make them easily at home using ground beef, or ground lentils
But using it as a reason to be against veggie burgers is lame. You never hear “I’m in the mood for something healthy, maybe I’ll make hamburgers.” Honestly, who cares? You don’t see people doing this with ice cream or chocolate because we already know it’s unhealthy, but for some reason it’s super necessary to diss veggie burgers because they’re unhealthy.
Processed patties are unhealthy though, regardless of being vegetarian, vegan or omni. You’re better off making patties from scratch, and you can have a healthy burger. People associate burgers with being unhealthy or junk because burgers are staples in fast food chains. But burgers made from scratch are not unhealthy lol. Yeah, eating too much red meat can be an issue, but minced chicken or chickpea burgers with patties made at home? You can have those daily if the calories match your macros and TDEE
