Burger King's Impossible Whopper Is Going Nationwide After STL Rollout
Ever since the Impossible Whopper's surprise launch on April 1, the wonder of the meatless burger's very-meat-like taste has been a boon — to St. Louis, which was selected as the sole test city for BK's tasty experiment.
For the last 29 days, we have had something no one else had. We were the only place in all of America you could get the Impossible Whopper. However, in a shameful but expected act of capitalism, the company is now planning to make the Impossible Whopper part of its menu nationwide. And for that, we can take some credit for being the forward-thinking, plant-loving, food-focused city we all know ourselves to be. The Impossible Whopper test in St. Louis went "exceedingly well," a Burger King spokesman said in a statement reported this morning in the trade publication Nation's Restaurant News, announcing the company's decision to wrench from St. Louis its most recently established regional delicacy and make it something common. https://www.riverfronttimes.com/foodblog/2019/04/29/the-entire-us-is-now-getting-burger-kings-impossible-whopper-after-stl-rollout

1. It probably tastes more like meat than the regular Whopper

4. I had a "regular" Whopper a week or so ago and anything would taste more like meat...
First time in years I ate in a BK, and it has really gone downhill.

3. BK used to have a veggie burger in some markets...
as a long time veg...it did fill a hole, not much else. Haven't had one in years. If the Impossible Burger gets fewer people to eat meat....good.

7. I heard an advertisement that Del Taco was offering Beyond Burger meatless tacos. Hopefully
other establishments will follow suit.
