Burger King veg burger lawsuit (doh!)
A lawyer is filing a class-action lawsuit against Burger King, because its Impossible Burger is cooked on the same grill as their beef burgers (unless the customer requests microwave preparation).

Well, what an act of genius. This will only serve to discourage fast food restaurants from selling vegan foods. This perfectionism doesn't help the animals. These types of lawsuits make the vegan movement look crazy.

It's also stupid because it's not vegan to begin with. The animal testing obviates any claim for vegan. (And come on...everyone knows it's cooked with beef.)

I agree with both of you.
Rather than tearing down existing meat based restaurants for attempting to offer plant based options they should take the opportunity to start vegan fast food restaurants!
Perfect time to say "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good!"

Interestingly, my ex-husband went to BK recently to try the Impossible Whopper (or whatever it's called). He was disappointed and said it was no different from a Morningstar Griller (original). Since that BK does offer Grillers, I said that maybe that's what he got and someone just made a mistake. He waited a few weeks, went to another BK and ordered the Impossible thingie and again got what he believes is a Morningstar Griller. Both these BKs advertise the Impossible burger, btw.
He called someone (corporate? regional? local store?...I don't know) and was assured that no one would confuse the two products because of blahblahblah. So...the questions remain... Is the Impossible burger that much like a Griller, or are these BKs selling Grillers as Impossibles for some reason (cost, etc.)?
