People jump on things fast. Clothing
trends. Health trends. Food trends. The food trends is the one that
usually bugs me the most because when people find out about some new
food that is healthy for you they want everyone to stop what they are
doing and try it. The newest thing is the Impossible Burger. I first
saw it at The Counter and had no desire to try it. I am not against
vegan and vegetarian things as much as I used to be especially
considering that Donut Friend is my favorite donut spot and that shit
is super vegan. But I like burgers. I like beef. I have no intention
of stopping even though I know that the way it is made is fucked up
and that the animals I eat make a lot of waste. I know this and am
not changing until I find out that my heart is going to explode
because of my diet. This Impossible Burger has me curious but the
prices of those things alone keep me from buying one. Also the fact
that it is supposed to taste like a burger. I tell myself I balance
things out by not driving, never been on a plane, and barely make
waste.
I know that sounds weird. I won't try
something that is not made of beef that is supposed to taste like
beef. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dante and I am
skeptical as fuck and question everything. Too much. I question
things too much and this burger is something I question. I looked up
some information about this thing because it came out of nowhere. I
want to know what it has, what it does, and who made it. It's not
like they were in the vanishing Amazon and found this plant that
produces beef juices. Damn, that would be awesome. This was created
in a lab much like the beef I'll be eating in the future. Read about
science meat. Sounds horrible but I'd hop on that faster than this
Impossible Burger. The investors of Impossible Foods has been Google
Ventures, Khosla Ventures, Viking Global Investors, UBS, Horizons
Ventures, and Bill Gates contributing millions. I know some people
saw Google and Bill Gates and their butt holes tightened a little.
