Hey.. I used to eat dead cows too. Finally a sweetie informed me of the obvious (as I was eating it):
IT's THE TRIMMINS (and texture) as much as the 'meat' - that IS the hamburger experience !! GardenBurger and several other brands are generally available now: with 'char-broiled' flavor I defy you to deconstruct ;-)
Use a Real non-preservative, non-cardboard fresh decent bun + other suitable condiments - ya gotta try this at least Once, ya wimps!
Yes I understand - when on the road etc. no chain has been smart enough to do this Right (as above) - in fact in MnsHO: those that did sorta offer alternatives.. made them w/o the beef pheromones - to keep their [M$] captive [M$] audience enslaved to megatons of ground-up cattle (and colonoscopies: the little burger-bits like to hide out in the folds, as they putrefy, etc.) At Home: it's a cinch to make the test.
Anyway.. I aver: there IS 'burger' after deadcow. It's like gettin yer friend to just Look at KDE after addiction to dancing otters. You know about That one..

not holier than thou - just better fed and - apparently fooled quite nicely by the ~taste equivalents. (and actually - my taste buds are generally.. rather Picky)
