The latest and greatest \u201cfoods\u201d to hit restaurants and grocery store shelves these days are made from plants \u2014 or so we\u2019ve been told. With that advertising claim in mind, we challenge you to find the plants in these products. The ingredients listed below are for the Impossible Burger, Beyond Burger, and Just Egg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some of the ingredients that contain free glutamate \u2014 the toxic ingredient found in MSG \u2014 have been highlighted for you. Maybe they qualify as plant based. They\u00a0are<\/em>\u00a0made in food processing and\/or chemical plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you take a look at what these products are made from it will be obvious that they\u2019re not meat, they\u2019re not eggs, and they\u2019re not the kinds of plants grown by farmers. A better name might be chemical-based junk foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Impossible Burger<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Water, Soy Protein Concentrate<\/strong>, Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil, Natural Flavors<\/strong>, 2% or less of: Potato Protein<\/strong>, Methylcellulose, Yeast Extract<\/strong>, Cultured Dextrose, Food Starch Modified<\/strong>, Soy Leghemoglobin, Salt, Soy Protein Isolate<\/strong>, Mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E), Zinc Gluconate, Thiamine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B1), Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Niacin, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Vitamin B12.
