It's def subjective but I've never been a fan of the blackened bean burger as a hamburger replacement. I wasn't that impressed with the bm burgers but the impossible burgers are a fine replacement imho.

    This isn't a hamburger replacement this is a homemade burger where the beans taste like beans and are mainly there because I like homemade refried beans and thought they'd be good as a burger

    Also impossible burger beyond meat sale difference. It's all fake meat that could be better replaced with something that just isn't pretending to be anything

    I tell meat eaters and vegetarians the same thing about this.

    "Do not compare this to the best meat hamburger you ever had. Instead pretend its a completely new food that you've never tried."

    Treat it like a protein option and stop trying to force it to be just like something else. It is very similar to meat in many ways, but it isn't meat. I don't consume much advertising so I don't know if the companies are selling it and saying that it's indistinguishable.

    It's not "fake", it just isn't "meat".
