All the plant-based options I see in my store are cheaper than actual meat. But then, the biggest brand I see is Morningstar Farms. I don't know how much Impossible Meat is because nobody around here carries it, but I would imagine it's a bit pricey just for the name being so popular.
That’s wild. Are you in the US? I can’t think of a supermarket near me that doesn’t stock Impossible and Beyond
I am indeed in the US. The only places I can find impossible or beyond meat around here are restaurants that have those meatless options. And since Burger King was found to not actually be using the Impossible patties for the Impossible Whopper at one point, I don't trust that I've even really tried the alternative but had just been given a regular Whopper.
Don't know about the states, but in Finland the Burger King doesn't use impossible patties but instead patties from the vegetarian butcher.
Though I guess if the product is called "impossible whopper" then it probably should be done with impossible patties.
