(1/31/2020) - Whether you're doing it for health, environmental reasons, or just because it tastes good, the meatless meat trend is hotter than ever.
With many key players in the food industry jumping on board and bringing in plant based options, the economic growth of some of those products sky rocketed past the billion dollar mark in 2019.
It wasn't long ago that for a vegan to eat at a fast food restaurant, it was nearly impossible, but that word "impossible" has taken on a whole new meaning.
With Burger King introducing their Impossible Wopper, the plant-based food industry is now worth nearly $5 billion, according to the Good Food Institute.

Nothing, I repeat nothing, will ever satisfy these people.
Burger King attempted to reach a broader audience by offering the Impossible Whopper, a plant-based patty that tastes like the Whopper.
But vegans have sued Burger King because meat has contaminated the new “burger.”
Phillip Williams just filed the lawsuit, claiming the burger giant advertises the Impossible Burger as a vegan alternative to its meat burgers, yet they’re all cooked on the same grill.
Williams says his burger was contaminated by meat byproducts. He bought the burger in question in ATL.
