Impossible slider : Live Updates Every Minute from 25K+ News Agencies Across the Globe

White Castle
With Easter Sunday ahead, White Castle is offering tips to improving seasonal celebrations.
First, try adding White Castle’s Original Slider Stuffing to your Easter table. Sure, this Thanksgiving staple goes great with turkey, but it also complements ham, lamb, beef and other traditional Easter fare. White Castle introduced the savory stuffing in 1991, using the Original Slider as the primary ingredient. In 2019, White Castle released a new version of the recipe, using the Impossible Slider for Cravers who want a nonmeat option. Both the traditional and meat-free recipes can be found on White Castle’s website under “Recipes.”

Impossible Burgers' additive that makes plant-based food 'bleed' needs more FDA testing, claims suit that questions whether 'heme' is safe to eat
The Center for Food Safety claims not enough testing was done on soy leghemoglobin, which is genetically engineered for Impossible Burgers
The color additive has the effect of making it seem like the plant products bleed
The FDA approved Impossible Foods' use of heme in July 2019
Impossible Burgers are available across the country and are sold by prominent national restaurant chains, such as White Castle and Burger King 

In November, McDonald’s announced plans to roll out plant-based versions of its signature items, including a burger, chicken sandwich, and breakfast sandwich made with plant-based sausage. The new menu, called the McPlant, is hardly a surprise.
McDonald’s is a latecomer to the plant-based fast-food game: White Castle debuted the Impossible Slider in April 2018. Shortly after, Del Taco and Burger King added Beyond and Impossible products to their menus, respectively. Then
 Dunkin’ released a breakfast sandwich made with plant-based sausage, and KFC and Jack in the Box began rolling out meatless chicken in select markets. These options, part of a massive innovation boom in alternative meat, are engineered to be extremely similar to the meats they mimic. They’re different from old-school veggie burgers, which were just plant proteins like beans or soy in the shape of a small patty. These new products are still made from a mishmash of plant proteins, but they look, smell, cook, and taste like the real deal.

The fast-food industry is getting savvy to plant-based meat menu items, with the latest entrant being Pizza Hut, which now offers meatless sausage toppings on its pizzas. Just one day earlier, McDonald’s introduced the McPlant burger, followed by several other chains’ vegan meat introductions in the last year.
The plant-based meat market is growing, and fast-food restaurants are the latest to hop on the trend to offer the meatless option to their customers. Here are some of the latest chains to add vegan meat to their menus in an attempt to attract new customers.

The 6 Best Fast Food Chains With Plant-Based Options on the Menu
It used to be that if you were a plant-based eater, you had to resort to a lame salad when you found yourself at a fast-food restaurant. You may have paired it with French fries, apple slices, or a drink and hoped you wouldn’t be starving in an hour. But fast-food restaurants have finally got the memo that their customer base isn’t just coming through for a burger, fried chicken, or a beef taco. Many now have plant-based foods and are coming up with creative, delicious ways to get more greens on the menu. Some of the ways they are adding plant-based meat alternatives are through the companies providing them with the products: mainly Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods.

I had never attended food tastings. When I finally did, it was right in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic, during Phase 1.
So naturally, the PR companies who hosted the tastings did what every company was doing — they took it online.
Was it weird being introduced to the food via my computer screen? Was it strange eating in front of my screen with a group of strangers as my eating buddies? Here’s how it went down.

If you didn’t already know, PS.Gourmet recently launched a few delivery-exclusive brands, Chopstix, Popsup and Sipsy, which offer meals from well-known Singaporean restaurants PS.Cafe and Chopsuey. 

Operators play with extreme portion sizes on both ends of the spectrum to up the "fun factor"
The concept of the disappearing middle is most often employed by economists to describe the state of the American middle class, but lately restaurateurs seem to have taken the notion to heart as they develop menu items at both extremes of the size spectrum.
It’s a small world after all. Officially, sliders are the small, square hamburgers created in 1921 by White Castle founder Billy Ingram, but unofficially the term is freely applied to almost any petite sandwich. The recent past has seen an uptick in new-age versions trading on consumer awareness of and fondness for the iconic small bites.

Feb. 19, 2020
White Castle is amping up its plant-based menu item presence, saying it will launch a dairy-free cheddar option in New York- and New Jersey-area restaurants starting March 1, according to a news release. The addition makes the regional chain one of the nation's first to offer a dairy-free alternative to cheddar cheese, which is often added to burgers and other fast food entrees. 
White Castle said the cheese can be added to any slider, including its array of plant-based option patty sandwiches, like the pioneering Veggie Slider, from Dr. Praeger's, which debuted five years ago, and the Black Bean Slider sold in retail outlets only.
