  • Convincingly meaty flavor profile
  • Impressively realistic burger texture
  • Versatile cooking performance
  • Widely praised chicken nuggets
  • Highly processed ingredient list
  • Notably high sodium levels
  • Occasional artificial aftertaste
  • Inconsistent product texture

Impossible Foods delivers convincingly meat-like flavor and texture according to reviews, with burgers, ground “beef,” nuggets, and sausages cooking and performing much like real meat and often pleasing meat eaters. Reviews also flag drawbacks: a processed ingredient list with high sodium, occasional artificial or smoky aftertaste, digestive discomfort for some, and inconsistent texture across products.

  • The impossible burgers are a great, widely available alternative to beef. Unlikely other faux meat burgers, you aren’t locked into an “veggie” or “black bean” flavor. When bought to cook at home, their easy to make. The texture however is not ideal. It is attempting to be close to a beef burger but can often be just a too soft vegan burger. The price is also quite high for a burger that you don’t fully love.

    The texture of the burgers when cooked.

  • I enjoy the Impossible Whoppers. After I went vegetarian I didn't think I would eat a Whopper again.

  • I've had numerous products from this brand and all were amazing. The Impossible Whopper at Burger King is great for a fast food burger. The Impossible "ground meat" was easy to work with and is often far cheaper than it's competitor Beyond Meat. Finally, I've tried the Impossible Savory Sausage, which I made biscuits and gravy with - which did taste slightly different than a normal biscuits and gravy would but was still a great substitute. The texture of all these foods were definitely different than animal meat, but it was close enough that it could satisfy the meaty/hearty craving of having the original version. I've eaten a lot of meat replacements over the years, but Impossible Foods consistently gets it right. My partner is a huge meat eater and is also happy with the texture/taste of the replacements we've had from Impossible.

  • I have been a vegetarian for over 25 years so I am not sure how closely this relates to a real meat taste. I thought I would be excited about this product line but I found that I have grown to love my meat alternatives over the years and dont want to taste flesh. I find myef wondering if my meal got mixed up with real meat and end up not eating. I think this line is ideal for those venturing into vegetarianism or those who want to reduce their meat intake.

  • Love the Impossible burger! Have tried most other meat replacement options, but find this one the best.

    No availability in Europe. Lobby better for permission to use soy leghemoglobin ! :)

  • Impossible is one of my favorite brands - as a un-proclaimed vegetarian this has single handily changed the way I enjoy food. While it shouldn't be a substitute for a healthy diet of fresh veggies and other treasures from mother earth, it comes in handy when I have a burger craving.
