Brand Details

Type: Product

Description: Impossible Burger is a plant-based burger patty produced by Impossible Foods, a company founded in 2011 by Patrick O. Brown. The product is designed to mimic the taste, aroma, and texture of beef, using ingredients like soy protein, heme (soy leghemoglobin), coconut oil, and sunflower oil. It's marketed as a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional beef burgers, using significantly less water, land, and producing fewer greenhouse gas emissions during production. While it offers a good source of protein and several vitamins and minerals, it's also higher in sodium and saturated fat than unseasoned beef. The Impossible Burger is available for purchase online and in various restaurants and retailers across several countries.

Lab-grown meat the next frontier in ethical eating: to produce one billion quarter-pounder burgers takes 1.2 million cows living for 3 years on 8,600 square kilometres of land. The same number of cultured burgers would require muscle stem cells of just 1 living cow, a month and a half to grow.

Cultured meat, also known as clean, cell-based or slaughter-free meat, is grown from stem cells taken from a live animal without the need for slaughter. If commercialized successfully, it could solve many of the environmental, animal welfare and public health issues of animal agriculture.
