> The impossible burger

This is a wheat and potato proteins based burger, where they add leghemoglobin grown in yeast, to give some of that bloody, irony taste. And coconut oil for fat.

If you're in New York City area or New Jersey, or Chicago area, your nearest White Castle probably has the "impossible slider" for $1.99.

Give me that rather than icky bugs!

Very cool. I hadn't heard about them at White Castle. Nice to know.

Fatburger has also started to serve Impossible Burgers. Interestingly at our local Fatburger the price was the same $6 for either a regular Fatburger or for an "Impossible" Fatburger. The way I see it, either way, it's a Fatburger. Fatburger.

So does Wahlburger.
