      It's a strange world at the moment. Boy identifys as a girl and SJW's flip out if you don't agree he's a girl. Burger made of plants imitating meat and dairy have similar people flipping out when someone calls it for what it is.

      • And idiots remain idiots, but we just hear them more on the internet these days.

      I'll let you in on a little secret. 'Buffalo wings' don't come from a buffalo! Oh my god… the horror! Quick, someone call the food labeling police. Oh wait, it's meat, so they can call it whatever they like.

      Farmers nor the industry they're in do not own those words.

      Are you dense? Have you even seen the packaging? They clearly state PLANT BASED on them. Restaurants that offer them do the same.

      If you get "tricked" by plant based fake meat products then you're just as likely to confuse fish with chicken. Hell, if you have trouble with this you probably don't realise that chicken Twisties aren't actually made of chicken.

      • Are you dense? Have you even seen the packaging?

        Have you seen the Grill'd Menu?
        There are two headings "Beyond Meat" and "Vege Burgers". If the menu heading was "Beyond Plant-Based Meat" then your argument would have merit.

        • +1

          I don't know why the Grill'd you go to has different menus but they're listed as "Beyond Burgers" at the ones I've been to and the text underneath states that it's a plant based burger. Is it really that hard to comprehend?

    I was hoping this would stack with the free drink for students on mondays :/

    • +5

      Just ask I've never had an issue with them stacking deals that explicitly say in the T&C's they are unstackable

    • There's always one.

  • +1

    No meat, no deal haha XD

    • +27

      These are actually really tasty

      • Which one do you recommend?

        • +3

          The bacon cheeseburger with the beyond meat Patty

    • +5

      You know, "adding a patty" to both is still, probably cheaper.

      So could still be a deal if you're clever ;)

  • Am I correct to assume these are not associated with Beyond meat or impossible burger, it is just a clever use of the name beyond for branding, right?

    • +13

      No they use Beyond meat.

      • Thanks, do you have any source for that? I can't see it mentioned anywhere, or see beyond meat logo anywhere

        • +8

          From the Grill'd website:
          "We sought out the experts at Beyond Meat to help us on our search for a perfectly meaty, plant-based pattie. The result is a four-strong line-up of our best loved burgers, made with a Beyond Meat pattie of pea protein and beetroot, free from soy, gluten and GMOs."

  • +31

    Seriously if you haven’t tried these burgers I’d suggest giving them a go.
    You’ll be pleasantly surprised at the taste.
    The only downside I found is they aren’t as filling.

    • +10

      I'd absolutely second this though I can't comment on then not being as filling. I do find them filling without a doubt.

    • +1

      I've tried them. Not as satisfying as the real stuff they're imitating but they're okay. Problem is they digest too quickly, was starving again a couple of hours later and made me use the bathroom where it was thunderous, sticky and looked like the kind of patty a cow leaves in the field.

      • The feeling hungry shortly after consumption is likely caused by the differences between animal and plant based protein.

        • That's part of why I eat animals at night. Get a good night sleep and don't wake up because I'm hungry.

        • +6

          It's likely not that at all as protein is protein, doesn't matter where it comes from.

          • +1

            @Scantu: WRONG. Proteins have very different amino-acid profiles based on the source. If you are not aware of this and eating a restricted diet, I suggest urgently consulting with a nutritionist.

            Vegans have to be very careful about their diets to avoid becoming malnourished. I hope you would accept the Mayo Clinic is a reasonable reference for the challenges. Vitamin deficiencies can lead to mental health issues, including depression.

            • -2

              @mathew42: Wrong AND condescending isn't a good look.

              Again - you can't just link random websites that say nothing about your claims as a source.

              Why are you so dogmatic about something you clearly have no knowledge on?

              • +2

                @Scantu:

                link random websites

                Mayo Clinic is a leading hospital / research institution.

                [WebMD}(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebMD) is a somewhat respected layman's source of information.

                Rather than shouting down an opinion you disagree with how about responding to the nutritional concerns and explaining how you maintain an adequate level of Vitamin D to avoid depression.

                • +1

                  @mathew42: I understand who owns those websites. Those pages say nothing about your bollox claims you've made. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about.

                    @Scantu:

                    Those pages say nothing about your bollox claims you've made

                    A list of the nutrients commonly found in meat that vegetarians need to be careful to ensure they consume is not sufficient evidence? If you're not aware of this then please consult with a nutritionist urgently.

                    • @mathew42: Your "sources" you link do not indicate that a) people on those diets commonly don't have those nutrients or b) those nutrients are not obtainable on that diet, which is what you are claiming.

                      Contemplate for a second that that resource exists because people may be switching diets and need to know what to eat because they lack nutritional knowledge and want to find out. Perhaps you should study it more closely. Stop with the "please consult" thing it's so infantile. I certainly don't need to hear it from someone who thinks there are "different types of protein" which shows a fundamental lack of knowledge.

                        @Scantu:

                        lack nutritional knowledge

                        The numerous comments claiming that a protein is a protein is a protein in denial of the fact that the amino acids in meat and plant based proteins are very different and the results of the body metabolising those different amino acids is different is sufficient grounds for providing advice to consult a nutritionist.

                        • @mathew42: You've got some more reading to do mate, sorry. Your first step is to provide sources that wouldn't result in a fail mark on an assignment for a 4th grader.

                        • @mathew42: Have you actually read that Mayo Clinic site?? It's not only not proving your point but it is arguing my case hahahaha It literally has a section that is recommending how to transition off a meat diet

                          • @Scantu:

                            It's not only not proving your point but it is arguing my case hahahaha

                            Clearly listing the major areas of challenge that vegetarians can face in maintaining a nutritionally sufficient diet proves your case?

                            It literally has a section that is recommending how to transition off a meat diet

                            Exactly the reason I suggest consulting with a nutritionist, because you do need to make changes.

                            • @mathew42: I regret only scouring that page for the arguments you were trying to make and not reading it fully sooner, it actually fully supports what I'm saying.

                              The tagline is literally "A well-planned vegetarian diet is a healthy way to meet your nutritional needs"

                              hahaha it's so good I can't make this stuff up this was YOUR SOURCE! It's an article for people who want to know, when they stop eating meat, what to eat, and it basically says a few legumes and vegetables. Amazing.

                          @mathew42: I don't think he understands about complete amino acid profiles, and doesn't want to. You've tried buddy, some people don't want to know the truth.

                          • @ozbjunkie: Feel free to start your reading here: https://www.mja.com.au/journal/2013/199/4/protein-and-vegeta…

                            Particularly, "The protein combining myth"

                            • @Scantu: Thanks for posting a reference showing that it is simply not the case that "a protein is a protein is a protein"

                              "Other plant protein sources usually have all of the essential amino acids, but the amounts of one or two of these amino acids may be low. For example, cereals, and especially wheat, are particularly limited in their lysine content, and legumes are low in methionine. In comparison to animal proteins, plant proteins have lower levels of leucine, methionine, lysine and tryptophan.4"

                              • @ozbjunkie: Protein is still a protein. Yes.

                                You going to ignore the rest of the article which wholly dismantles everything else you've said?

                                • @Scantu: No mate, I'm going to stick to my point, the one I was debating, and the one upon which you misspoke.

                                  You are going to try to shift the point to "but it doesn't matter because when you eat a varied diet you end up having enough different types of plant protein…blah blah blah". Of course, that argument is not the same as "a protein is a protein".

                                  • @ozbjunkie: That's exactly what I'm saying yes :)

                                    • @Scantu: But you're also saying "a protein is a protein".

                                      Why would you simultaneously argue "and combining plant proteins as necessary to achieve necessary quantities of all amino acids should happen pretty easily in a varied diet".

                                      If the former were actually true, you'd have no reason to argue the latter.

                                      You can't win an argument by responding to claims which are subtly different to what your interlocutor is taking issue with.

                                      Simply not true that protein is protein.

                                      • @ozbjunkie: On the level of abstraction we were talking, a meat diet gets the amino acids from a few different places as does a plant diet. So at that level, in response to the comment, it is appropriate.

                                        • @Scantu: Alright I'm off to eat something that cries.

                                          • @ozbjunkie: Oooh got em that was really edgy

                                            • @Scantu: Hmm. Delicious. And a complete amino acid profile to boot! No need to combine anything. All proteins are not the same, you know.

                                              • @ozbjunkie: Nice that you've backed down to childish retorts, you've definitely made a point

                                                • @Scantu: Nice that you stuck to the point, and conceded your misstatements.

                                                  • @ozbjunkie: I imagine the first part of the sentence is sarcastic but yes that is what happened. You can read above for the context I was stating that in as it matched the context in what the OP was saying.

                            • @Scantu: Quoting directly from the article supports my position that vegetarians need to take extra effort in managing their diet compared with those who eat meat:

                              Protein foods that have large amounts of all essential amino acids are often referred to as high-quality proteins. These include foods of animal origin as well as a few plant foods including soy and the grains quinoa and amaranth. Other plant protein sources usually have all of the essential amino acids, but the amounts of one or two of these amino acids may be low.

                              • @mathew42: When you change diet you need to make sure you're getting the same nutritional value, here are the things you need to do to ensure that when you're preparing your meal. Yes. When you change something you need to look at what will replace it. Only someone who arrogantly assumes that eating meat is the norm would think that is extra effort.

                                Please stop I'm begging to think that the thing you've said about brain damage and subsequently not being able to parse information correctly is a pure case of projection as you clearly can't read what that website is saying. I've got to give it to you for the epic self own by using that site as a "source" though.

                    Get outside? You get more vitamin D from the sun than you do from food.

                    Correct, except that people actively avoid the sun and smother themselves with sunscreen resulting in vitamin D deficiency which can lead to depression and other mental health issues.

                    As with most things in life somewhere in the middle is the correct answer.

                      It's too easy at this point

                      • @Scantu: Interesting. I'm aware of Polynesians with low vitamin D who had a letter from their Doctor excluding them from wearing sunscreen at school.

                        The article you referenced contains this quote:

                        Sunscreen with a high UVA protection factor enabled significantly higher vitamin D synthesis than a low UVA protection factor sunscreen, likely because it allows more UVB transmission.

                        The Cancer Council states:

                        UVB is the major cause of sunburn and increased skin cancer risk, while UVA contributes to ageing of the skin, as well as higher skin cancer risk.

                        There is no indication in the abstract of the composition of the sunscreen, it may not be directly applicable to Australia.

                    • @mathew42: Yep exactly, eat some meat, but don't make it your diet, get some sun and go for a walk and you are winning in life. Hate on vegans/vegetarians for no reason at all, and try to give diet advice from the 50's, and you are losing.

      It's an improvement to a lot of fake meat I've tried but it's not there yet. Unless a new iteration occurs, I won't be scrambling to try Beyond again. Can't wait for impossible burger to make its way here.

    • Meat free. I can't recall if you have to ask for vegan cheese though. I think you do - I tend to anyway, just from habit.

    • +13

      The burger is a veggie burger, cheese is real cheese from milk. In fact the best one is the Beyond Crispy Bacon & Cheese (real bacon from a pig). Not sure when eating a veggie burger became a political issue…sheesh. Eat it, don't eat it, it's a bargain.

      • +2

        The Beyond burger with real bacon is a bit weird. I don't eat meat.. but gimme BACON!!

        • When I've ordered them, they've always confirmed when ordering that it's real bacon. Supposedly roasting portabella mushrooms produces a bacon substitute so I wonder if that's the next step for them.

          • +1

            @neil: Ok cool. that's nice they confirm. They used to have a mushroom burger but they took it off. Hold the phone - they've got a mushroom parma!! Might have to try that one soon.

        • Yep, I think that's a bit odd, too.

          I suppose you're cutting down on animal protein, though so why not allow yourself some bacon

      • +1

        Real cheese, real bacon, vegan patty… okay then

        • +4

          im actually completely okay with this.
          making it easier to transition to eating less meat is praiseworthy. this already is great and more realistic than turning people into 24/7 vegans/vegetarians and can arguably have a much larger impact since more people are willing to give it a go

      • -5

        When did it become a political issue? Have you never met a vegan?
        You would know if you had, they would tell you.

      Why do people confuse vegetarians with vegans 🙄

      • +2

        Yes these burgers are for lacto-vegetarians. The kind that still eat cheese and eggs. They are relatively normal people who look healthy and aren’t constantly in your face about their dietary choice.

        • I would say just ‘vegetarian’. If you are a vegetarian then you don’t eat meat but you still eat products produced by an animal. You don’t eat fish or other living beings with a pain system.

          • -1

            @UberIsCool:

            You don’t eat fish or other living beings with a pain system.

            But have no problem exploiting and killing them (for milk, leather, eggs, isinglass, wool, circuses, etc.) as long as you don't ingest their actual flesh, most of the time.

            People can be vegetarian for various reasons, but reducing pain (animal welfare) is an illegitimate one.

            • +2

              @fantombloo: 'but reducing pain (animal welfare) is an illegitimate one' - Id never push someone into becoming a vegetarian or vegan but certainly stopping eating meat is the first step to reducing animal welfare, methane gas, waste, gluttony. Think you will find anyone who doesnt eat meat for animal welfare doesnt support your list either "(for milk, leather, eggs, isinglass, wool, circuses, etc.)"

              • +2

                @UberIsCool:

                Think you will find anyone who doesnt eat meat for animal welfare doesnt support your list either "(for milk, leather, eggs, isinglass, wool, circuses, etc.)"

                That is my point. If animal welfare is your concern then it only makes sense to boycott all animal use (ie - being vegan); vegetarianism is illogical and arbitrary in this regard. Being vegetarian because of religion or taste preferences or supposed health benefits or as an incremental improvement in reducing personal greenhouse gas emissions is a separate matter, but should not be confused with animal welfare or their ability to feel pain.

                I don't care for terms like "gluttony" but I can't think of a more wasteful way of using animals than how vegetarians do. People often talk about this "respect the life of the animal by using all of it" nonsense. The truth is, there is no one on earth who uses the entire animal more than the nondiscriminate Western consumer. Vegetarians basically keep an animal alive to pick at their secretions, then when the animal is killed they will selectively pick the bits they want (wearing skin good, eating flesh bad, making glue out of collagen good, making cheese with rennet bad, etc) leaving the rest for other markets to take as they will. It is absolute animal use "snobbery."

            • +1

              @fantombloo: So what you are saying, is that if everyone stopped consuming meat, all existing animals will still go through the same pain? There will be no exports, no slaughtering etc. It's like climate change, you can't just be like the completely stupid PM and think that just because we can't go all in, we shouldn't even try. Stupidity.

              • @onlinepred:

                we shouldn't even try.

                It would be nice if people did rather than make up excuses - like you just did there.

                all existing animals will still go through the same pain?

                Yes they would. Dairy cattle and egg laying hens suffer more than their cousins bred specifically for flesh.

                • @fantombloo: I agree, although at no point did I make an excuse, I was merely explaining this is the excuse given by stupid people like the PM in regards to climate change.

                  I will lay it out more clearly for you though, this below is a quote in regards to stupid people:
                  "Because we can't go all in, we shouldn't even try" - stupid people.

I recycle, I have a worm farm, I take my reusable bags everywhere I go, I take public transport, I do not buy products from places like Ikea- rather buy used items and rejuvenate if required - BUT I still own a car, and I buy electricity from non green sources. Does that mean I should just give up, and not do anything according to you? You are basically saying that you either go 100% in or not at all, and anything in between is just to make myself feel better and that I am having zero impact.

                            I have said no such thing. I have said that protecting animals' interests requires, as a minimum, being vegan. What people do is up to them.

                            Protecting the natural environment is different to protecting animals since it is not predicated on diminishing direct violations of basic rights: it does not have intended immediate consequences on particularly determined victims. In such circumstances incremental reforms can be constructive to the overall outcome. When we are talking about immediate violations of basic rights then such incremental reforms are unethical. If you ascribe no basic rights to animals then it makes sense to treat them like chattel - which is essentially nonveganism: you can kill and torture and protect all according to personal whims / cultural norms / economic reasons / animal-welfare-flavour-of-the-day-aka-palm-oil-foie-gras-cage-free-grass-fed / whatever. If however you do ascribe basic rights to animals then it only makes sense to protect those rights. Consider:

                            "I support gays but am against them marrying."

                            "I support women but believe they should stay at home."

                            "I support animals but think that exploiting and killing them for milk and eggs is ok."

                            If the first two don't make sense, then by logical extension neither does the last. If you would not advocate for the first two, don't advocate for the last. People will do what they do given the information presented.

                            Perhaps read MLK Jr's "The White Moderate" for a treatment of a separate issue but in the same vein that you may find more commanding.

          Have you ever actually had a vegan in your face about dietary choices?
          Most people I know who are vegan are super quiet about it, and quietly buy potato chips when there's a social event or team lunch.

          In my experience, the two most easily riled up groups are militant meat-eaters, and militant Android users.

        • actually vegans are generally healthier as dairy interferes with your iron intake. of course, if as a vegan, you don't eat the right things, your B12 can get low

    Awesome :)
    No wonder Beyond stock is having a nice run since listing.
