Instructions

In a large bowl whisk olive oil, lime juice, lime peel, sugar and salt until well blended.
Add blueberries, peaches, avocado and basil. Toss gently to combine.

Other than water, the main ingredient is soy protein concentrate. In and of themselves, soybeans are perfectly healthy, but soy protein concentrate is heavily processed, which means many of the benefits of the raw food are lost.

The Beyond Burger contains:

Water, Pea Protein Isolate, Expeller-Pressed Canola Oil, Refined Coconut Oil, Contains 2% or less of the following: Cellulose from Bamboo, Methylcellulose, Potato Starch, Natural Flavor, Maltodextrin, Yeast Extract, Salt, Sunflower Oil, Vegetable Glycerin, Dried Yeast, Gum Arabic, Citrus Extract (to protect quality), Ascorbic Acid (to maintain color), Beet Juice Extract (for color), Acetic Acid, Succinic Acid, Modified Food Starch, Annatto (for color).

In terms of ingredients, the two burgers are pretty similar, the exception being the main protein source. Beyond Meat uses pea protein instead of soy protein, and there's no soy leghemoglobin, which is Impossible's key ingredient that makes the burger "bleed."

Is the Beyond Burger or Impossible Burger healthier?

The bottom line is that both of these companies have created a "burger" in a lab, made from only plant products and designed to emulate the taste and texture of real beef. Your comfort level with that depends on your stance on food engineering (and how picky you are about beef, if you do eat it).

A few things might influence your opinion on which burger is healthier:

-The Impossible Burger contains mostly organic ingredients, while the Beyond Burger doesn't.

-The Beyond Burger is strictly non-GMO, whereas Impossible Foods recently faced backlash about using genetically modified ingredients that contain the pesticide glyphosate.

.-The Impossible Burger is fortified with more vitamins and minerals than the Beyond Burger.

**Bottom line is I will stick with real grass fed beef, organic chicken and wild caught fish. If I had to choose, I would pick the Beyond Burger to avoid the highly processed soy ingredients.
