The glyphosate levels compared to a regular burger are the same or less. It's just Big Ag anti-veggie burger media buzz.
Glyphosate is found on pretty much all foods as it's the most common pesticide.

If you aren't buying organic foods and not buying grass-fed beef from a farmer you personally know you are likely consuming far for glyphosate in a day than if you were to eat a pound of beyond meat every day.

Yeah v2.0 is amazing. The texture is 100% identical to ground beef. The taste is about 90% identical. I'm not a fan of how they smell raw, or while cooking if I'm honest. I made some chili with beyond beef a month back and it was the best vegan chili I've ever made. 100% couldn't tell it was vegan.

Once it's cheaper to manufacture than real beef (give it 5 years) all the fast food restaurants will switch to it for cost saving reasons and only edge Lord faggots will order the more expensive stuff that tastes the exact same.

It's going to be almost impossible to get rid of the smell as long as we have no good alternative to pea protein.

Soy and Lupin are common allergens, gluten has image problems. The only really good vegan protein is potato protein, but it's only a byproduct of potato starch manufacturing and can't really be scaled. Chickpea and duckweed might be a small improvement, but I think the big jump will come with fermentation based proteins ... milk producers will have problems when the whey market collapses.

I just bought some from the grocery store expecting shit and was pretty damn amazed. Goddamnit you guys said it was shit in an older thread, half the reviews on target.com said it's shit, I tried one from Carl's Jr and it tasted like smoky starch and yeast extract, my breath smelled like instant ramen packets afterwards. I was about to try to beat them with my own formula so I bought some more from the grocery store and now I'm stumped. I'm wondering if it's the coconut oil fake marbling or more smoke flavor or maybe iron, it smelled metallic raw. It seemed like a lot on the nutrition facts panel. Gotta find the old formula nutrition facts.

Taste is subjective so it is what it is, I've had one of the beyond burgers and it was ok. Obviously I prefer the real thing but if I had to stop eating meat for whatever reason I'd eat those no problem.
I know a vegan who loved and misses meat but thinks ethically it's wrong to consume so these products fill that niche.

You’d be wrong. The new fake meats are targeted squarely at meat eaters, because vegans don’t care what food tastes like. However, rather than make the fake meat taste good, the companies making them are simply insisting that they do. Real vegans hate Beyond, because they’ve forgotten what meat tastes like and think it’s too similar.

I'm not a vegan and I actually enjoy some of the plant based meat substitutes. Unlike meat, if they're cooked beyond what would be "medium rare" they don't lose their flavor and acquire a shitty texture. If someone was making a burger for me and I don't know their skills, I'd much rather a meat substitute well done than a burnt, rubbery meat patty. I feel like there is an incredible market among non-veggiefags. I know several people who are trying to limit red meat in their diet and this is a good alternative.
