Play icon The triangle icon that indicates to play What is Beyond Meat made of?Įthan Brown, the creator of Beyond Meat (the company that makes the Beyond Burger as well as Beyond Sausage, Beyond Beef Crumbles, Beyond Ground Beef and the newest additions, Beyond Jerky, Beyond Chicken Tenders, and Beyond Steak) told an NPR podcaster that his a-ha moment came when he realized that meat is made of five basic elements: amino acids, lipids, a small amount of carbohydrates, trace minerals and water. The widespread availability of these meat alternatives is great news for vegetarians, but are Beyond Burgers a healthier choice? And what the heck is actually in them? (Beyond’s competitor, the Impossible Burger, is also widely available, notably as a Burger King Whopper.) If you’d prefer to eat your cruelty-free burger at home, you can buy a pack of Beyond Burgers at Whole Foods, Target and numerous other major supermarkets and grocery stores. Now, a few years later, these plant-based burgers have become available for non-meat-eaters (and curious omnivores) all across the country, including fine-dining restaurants as well as fast-food and casual-dining chains such as Carl’s Jr.,and TGIFridays. The big difference - no animals were harmed to make it.
But the Beyond Burger was something else entirely, a juicy patty that looks and tastes just like a big old hunk of ground beef. Before that, a "veggie burger" could have meant anything from a mushy mixture of black beans to a crispy fried portobello mushroom to any combo of seeds, nuts and tofu.
