One of my brothers is full-on vegan, so we often lunch at Burgatory on the North Shore, and they have the Impossible burger. It's delicious, frankly

It's crazy good. The new version coming out won best in show at CES, a consumer electronics show. A burger won at an electronics show

Why doesn’t Impossible Burger sell their stuff directly to people?

Probably a huge/different pain in the rear end than just selling to restaurant supply houses and letting them worry about forecasting/customer interface/delivery/blah blah blah.

My friend is vegan and absolutely loves the Impossible Burger or whatever the hell it is, so chalk up another in the pro-bloody vegan dish.

My CEO sent out an email over the weekend about how people aren't responding to company-wide surveys anymore, and asked for people to do a survey about why this is happening. Is this high performance art or something.

Yeah, we’ve currently had two separate daily surveys flying around for the last couple of months to identify where workload blockages and slowdowns are occurring, corporate mentality is pretty spectacular (even though I don’t work for a corporation, it’s where lots of our leadership comes from).

CES has all the incredibly stupid stuff although i don't doubt that the burger is good

i can't believe there's already a made for tv brexit movie out with benedict cumberbatch. boris johnson looks like some random guy with a wig which is honestly the only way i'd recognize him anyways.

Spoeank posted:

Also the impossible burger is good but has the texture of overworked ground beef which bugged me. If it gets down to the same price as regular ground beef, I could see myself making the switch, though.

That's what my experience was too.

Whatever blend a local vegan diner (Kal'Ish for anyone in Chicago) uses has some serious black magic to it, if anything their Bad Adz burger feels like it's using higher quality meat than I'm used to having.

I think The Favourite is an underdog to keep your eye on at the Oscars this year.

Still can't figure out why Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz are being considered for supporting actress, and Olivia Colman for beat actress when Emma and Rachel had way more screentime than Olivia.

Great movie, though. Even if the ending kind of fell apart.

Edit: I've had an impossible burger and I think it tastes fine, if my opinion means anything!

There's a burger chain in Austin that has it, but they've always been sold out/not had it when I've gone.

Ehud it’s super easy to go vegan idk what the gently caress Mr. Nice is talking about.

Like you already lift weights and consume protein shakes. Just get a vegan protein shake and add a helping of leafy greens to it and wowzers you now have your iron and protein.
