Exactly what Dr. Berry said. I learned last year, in a college nutrition class, that the FDA does not actually test foods or drugs. They "consider" the reports and studies submitted to them. But, follow the money. Those reports and studies are performed by the very companies wanting their products to be approved. I also learned that there are many loopholes in our food labelling. Sugar can be called by many different names. Carbohydrates can be listed as zero, when in actuality the serving may have just less than 0.5 grams per serving. The proposed serving may be only 1/4 of a teaspoon. Most people are not going to use only a 1/4 teaspoon. The FDA permits this... And so much more.

[@carolinemcallister1473]

Yes, I'm on a few vegan sites for veggie recipes, and it's odd how much they want their food to look and taste like meat. Even some vegans comment they "give in", and eat nonplant life, at times. It's their body telling them they need the nutrients nonplant life gives, I think. Perhaps, they want their food to look and taste like nonplant life for psychological reasons. Not to be "bullied" by omnivores(when vegans are the militant bullies, in general), or too fool them in some sort of "gotcha" moment. I tried one of the fake burgers for fun, not sure which brand, though. If made fresh, eaten right away, not bad. You'd want two, maybe. But, leftover, I found the taste changed, and was gross.

@@carolinemcallister1473 I am a vegetarian, and I do NOT want anything I eat to look like or taste like beef or pork or ostrich or rabbit or squirrel. I eat a little bit of fish, rarely chicken or turkey, shrimp or crab simply because I do not like eating creatures with whom we share the planet. I have not eaten any red meat for most of my life. I eat the "polite" serving of chicken or turkey occasionally, which via a year adds up to maybe 2 cups, and that might be stretching the measurement. I eat mostly vegetables and fruits, herbs, various roots, some grains, berries, strawberries, bananas, chocolate. I detest lobster, ate some of it by accident once. I have never eaten a turtle or a spider or muskrat or any other number of things carnovores eats. I become sick. I do not have AGS. I am repulsed so greatly by eating the flesh of animals that when I was offered an Impossible Burger I could not finish the half I accepted on my plate. Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) (also called alpha-gal allergy, red meat allergy, or tick bite meat allergy) is a serious, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. AGS may occur after people eat red meat or are exposed to other products containing alpha-gal. There are vegetarians who are not necessarily vegans, who want red meat. (I repeat I am not in this category.) That group will need the ER if any of their foods touch a grill where red meat has touched. I have seen this reaction in others, and it is scary. The first few times they notice anything is wrong from my observations there is a rash on the inside areas of arms, stomach, neck, backs of legs, and it looks like they rolled in poison ivy and poison oak. When they come into contact with it again, those I have seen get this can and do say it feels as if they cannot breath and the throat is closing up. So. someone like that wants things like Impossible Burger is doing, and that group of vegetarians are vegetarians not by choice, but because they cannot literally breathe, walk and talk any other way.

I was diagnosed with NAFLD in late 2019. My hepatic function lab results in July 2020 showed my liver worsening. I decided to try going meatless. I ate Impossible and Beyond burgers and veggie dogs for a few months. My hepatic function tests in October came back at all-time highs. I went back to eating meats immediately. I eventually went on a ketogenic diet around February 2021. After only a couple weeks on keto, all my liver tests, except for one, came back normal. 8 weeks later every liver biomarker came back normal. I'm now symptom free of fatty liver. I'd like to thank Impossible Meats and Beyond Meats for jacking up my liver enzymes so high that I was forced to commit to cutting out carbs.

[@suequinn3468]

@@PLeejo what are some of the alternatives that are harder on the environment? What rare earth metals are you talking about needed for farming? Aren’t these same metals needed for farming the food that goes to the cattle too? Grass fed beef is a tiny fraction of cattle raised for food and even of those, many, perhaps most, are fed grain too. The vast majority of crop farmland goes to feeding livestock, not people. You seem to misunderstand, or have miscalculated, the moral leg vegans are standing on. First, the FDA requires the testing. The vegans don’t want it. The vegan goal is to minimize suffering, not end all animal death. There’s multiple parts to the suffering minimized by products like Impossible Burger. Yes, some lab animals will be killed and their short lives certainly weren’t ideal. The life of factory farmed cattle though, is far worse. It’s a lot easier to kill a mouse quickly and with minimal suffering than it is a cow. All those cows need to be shipped to the slaughterhouse, processing plant, distributors, warehouses, etc. Testing is hopefully a one time thing, looks possibly like two with Impossible Burger. I don’t even know where to begin calculating the suffering eliminated by folks eating Impossible Burgers, even if only occasionally. It’s not just livestock being killed in horrific ways, it’s their living conditions, abuse, artificial insemination, and I’m sure more I’m missing. Treatment that would be considered animal abuse outside the farming industry. I have no doubt the cattle suffering in a year is magnitudes worse than that suffered by the relatively small number of mice it happens to once, or twice, period. Then multiplied by the years the product is on the market. An important, and broadly held, misconception is that Impossible Burger is aimed at vegans. It’s main target audience is meat eaters, secondary to people transitioning to a vegan diet. Yeah, some vegans eat them; but, not a lot or often. LOL, they hate having to go to the meat counter to find them. So, adding to the cows, and other animals, saved by the I’m sure modest number of folks that quit eating meat all together because of this gateway food 😉. By the way, I’m not vegan. I’ve just done some serious deep dives into the issues. I just think it’s super important we really understand multiple sides of such issues and really examine what we’re being told.

For the ones who think, Meat/Flesh bleeds on your plate. Blood is in the the arteries/veins. The red liquid is actually ''myoglobin'', a protein that's only found in muscle tissue. ''Myoglobin'' carries oxygen through the muscle and contains a red pigment - which is why muscle tissue is red. As a steak is cooked, the ''myoglobin'' darkens - which is why the more “well-done” the meat is, the grayer it looks. Now please excuse me. I'm going to enjoy my very rare steak, YUM!

But surely, all cells of the body are within very close distance to a capillary bed, and therefore meat DOES have arteries and veins. A slab of meat will still contain a lot of blood since the only part of the human body lacking vascularisation is the lens of the eyes..and cutting a piece of meat surely ruptures sections of these vessels.

Vegans don’t like harming animals, however that doesn’t mean they didn’t grow up with certain animal products. Regular burgers are not good either if you eat them all the time. For me it’s a once in a while treat.

If meat is so bad, why do they try to make everything look and taste like meat?

[@rockstarofredondo]

Because most people don’t want to give up meat and couldn’t care less about veganism. The food corps are trying to appeal to meat-eaters.

That is the main thing I notice with Vegans, anti meat but do everything possible to make something that looks and tastes like meat. I have never wanted my steak to look and taste like broccoli lol

[@badvegan]

Because they like the taste and texture of meat but don't want an animal to suffer and die for them to have it on their plate. It's hardly a mystery that defies human understanding. Anyone who says they just can't understand it is either too stupid to understand or being disingenuous.

[@klw3786]

@@badvegan Actually you are being stupid and disingenuous...I guess it depends on which animals lives matter but all kinds of animals get killed for vegans>>> at least 55 sentient animals die to produce 100kg of useable plant protein: 25 times more than for the same amount of rangelands beef.” And these deaths are brutal. Mice are often poisoned by pesticides and are effectively tortured to death.

I think it’s no different than us, living keto, doing everything possible to master a keto friendly version of a favorite high carb meal! LOL You’ve never wanted your steak to look and taste like broccoli, but have you ever wanted your mashed cauliflower to look and taste like mashed potatoes 😂 Some vegans agree meat tastes good, but they just can’t stomach eating/harming an animal. I get it, I myself am not vegan, but my 9 year old is currently going through something where she simply can’t bring herself to eat animal. It literally makes her gag and cry. On that note, does anyone know if the beyond “meat” has this stuff in it as well? 😬 LOL

They’re not anti meat or taste they are anti death & suffering of other living beings who live and breathe like you. Would you like to be decapitated in the name of capitalism for food consumption? Most animals have the capacity of a child

Hey Dr. Berry , I do enjoy your videos and do watch the ones that apply to my present medical condition. My nephrologist determined Isabel stage 4 kidney disease. For 59 years I enjoyed being a carnivore at this point I gave it all up along with any dairy products hoping to keep my kidney functions at a better level. I have eaten the impossible burgers trying to trick my brain into thinking I was still eating meat , and it does a pretty good job. Hearing that there are ingredients that could further damage my kidneys is so disheartening . Have to become a vegan is hard enough. I thought I was doing the right thing by eating this product over real meat . I do hope more research is done . I suppose it will only take time . Even more frustrated in Tampa.

There is simply too much "processing" which MUST occur in order for plant-based foods to look and taste similar to meat for me to regard them as safe for human consumption. I love fruits and vegetables ... and I love meat. But I want to eat those foods in as near natural state as possible (i.e. the meat must be cooked to a safe internal temperature; some veggies I prefer raw while others I prefer cooked).

[@ledraslavik7868]

[@kvinettaf09]

As a vegetarian in Australia, I only tried an impossible burger because my meat eating Dad bought it for me to try out. I usually like to stick to eating things that I make and know what goes into it, but gave it a go. And the way that this leghemoglobin juiced when being cooked - let me say it's something that's appealing for the way it replicates the juicy texture in cooked meat. That and oils allow the patty to be cooked through properly and have a crisp layer built up by the end of frying it. That's what's appealing, not the fact that it looks like animal blood when being cooked fyi...plus a lot of alt/mock meat products suffer from being dry and not at all comparative to the other enjoyable elements of cooking/eating meat. But you're deep dive into the science behind it was useful to know. I myself thought the patty was alright to experience, but wouldn't want to go back to it again and again. I think there should simply be more research done on this, as it's effects on humans are largely unknown...and it's mainly a product appealing to people who like meat, trying to decrease their meat intake and opting for an alt with a likeness. So I don't think it's all that appealing to vegans and vegetarians all that much. My Dad also only bought it for me because it was on special, it's often reduced price here it seems. Perhaps because it's not all that popular among vegans/vegetarians.

When I posed the question of why vegans and vegetarians would want to make or eat something that simulated bleeding meat to a vegan friend of mine, he rolled his eyes at me as if I was the dumbest person on the planet and said that those foods aren't being made for the vegans and vegetarians, but for those that still eat meat, but are wanting to transition to eating a primarily plant based diet. He said that Impossible and Beyond products are a transition food. And from that perspective, it makes sense. I'll stick to my regular, natural meat, thank you very much.

[@Aurora3242]

There's nothing that makes sense out of eating a petridish.

[@joemann7971]

Those arent transitional foods. They are substitutes. Identical a keto dieter eating almond flour based bread or using stevia/monkfruit sweetener instead of sugar. Not everyone needs these things to stick to a vegan or keto diet, but plenty of people do. There is also another type of person called the flexitarian, which is someone thats kinda vegetarian, but they still eat meat. Those probably make up the bulk of the target audience for impossible foods. I doubt most long-term vegans and vegetarians would care to try an impossible burger. If they've been going a long time without meat, it's not like they will all of a sudden feel the need to eat it. I'm sure most are fine with their old veggie patties. This clearly isn't targeting them.
