I looked at the ingredients, and I can't see any trace of Vegetarian. False advertising, Beef Burgers contain Beef (Sometimes Horse), Chicken Burgers contain Chicken, I think it is about time that Vegetarian Burgers must contain Vegetarian.

We've had a vegetarian friend staying with us recently (and will continue for a while).
Mainly for the simplicity of cooking, we are now an inadvertent vegetarian household.
Surprisingly, we are quite enjoying the change in diet.
However, we've discovered three unpalatable products for lazy days... These, some god-awful sausages and the worst of them all, burgers with some (can't recall, maybe) BBQ sauce. All of which were part of the Linda McCartney brand.
I know it's subjective and if I'm honest, our guest was okay with the sausages (we were not). We'd bought 2 boxes of each - the remainder went to, oh, I'm ashamed to say, landfill.

That is something I hear quite often about these - definitely the meat substitute item that has the most meat-eating fans in my experience

My best mate's funeral tomorrow. He swore by these. I bought some once. We nearly had a fight. They're ****ing awful; like partially reconstituted cardboard with bits in. They're not a "juicy lucy" style burger either! No "filling" just cheese (allegedly) mixed in with the ... stuff. :neutral_face:

In what way is it bad for you?
"Systematic review, meta-analysis and regression of randomised controlled trials reporting an association between an intake of circa 25 g soya protein per day and blood cholesterol"
The inclusion of modest amounts soya protein (ca. 25 g) into the diet of adults with normal or mild hypercholesterolaemia resulted in small, highly significant reductions in total and LDL cholesterol, equivalent to ca. 6% LDL reduction. This practically achievable intake, particularly when combined with other dietary measures, can make a useful contribution to blood cholesterol management.
Basically soya protein reduces cholesterol, so i would be interested to hear what makes you think its bad for you.
