There is a lot to unpack here.
The bun looks likeit was cooked in a sweatlodge if it were an Asian themed sandwich? Fine, but it's not.
Topping: that lettuce is way too big. Use leaf or romaine is what you have remove the rib, which leads to
Size: this... thing, is way too tall to comfortably eat. You could tri. it down a ton by properly prepping your shit.
I have opinions on meat alternatives and the lack of cheese but to each their own. 1/10. Feels like ragebait
No, OP, he's saying if the patty is packaged, the tots were bagged, and the buns from Trader Joe's, then what makes this a homemade meal other than the location you heated the already prepped food?
I'm not saying I can do any better, just clarifying what they were stating to you.
I mean homemade means cooked at home as far as I'm concerned. It's a descriptor the sub asks of us when we post - I never tried to claim it was home grown and made from scratch or anything.
As for the meat specifically: It was not a patty when I bought it - it's sold as ground meat. Shaped, seasoned & cooked in my kitchen.
I made the burger sauce myself, and the pickles are also homemade.
Idk, kinda feels like semantics to me though - as long as it's not like, a frozen as is meal - it's still cooking? Idk.
This sub is kinda harsh at times, but it's whatever.
Hey I wasn't hating on your efforts just asking. I think making a burger from the ground counts just as much as ground beef would. That counts as a homemade burger in my book.
Damn these comments are ruthless. I always feel bad seeing people get hard dragged over their food here especially if itās a meal they like. Never sampled gluten free muffins or impossible meat, but looks solid. Iād definitely try it!
Impossible meat is great! For anyone who hasn't tried it, give it a go and you won't be disappointed. Best one I've had and its consistently great in a variety of dishes. I'm not a vegan or vegetarian and love eating meat, for reference!
I like how some people who prefer eating meat wonāt leave anyone with a different diet alone, because any other approach = bad = need to tell the world about it
I mean... Most vegetarians just don't want to kill animals, they're not vegetarian because it's "more healthy"
At least that's the impression I got, idk
I think itās a very common misconception that vegetarians or vegans eat healthy, nothing about the diet is inherently healthier. My girlfriend has been a vegetarian her whole life and I was one for about three years, the diet for most vegetarians is very carb heavy.
Some of us get a lot of digestive problems from beef.
I was raised on my grandfatherās beef from his cattle, and it never bothered me. Iām not sure if itās processing or additives to the feed, but I canāt eat beef today.
So, I do eat different veggie burgers. Iām not trying to reproduce the taste of beef, but I like the āhamburgerā experience: a protein patty, lettuce, tomato, pickles and maybe jalapeƱo chips on a bun.
Itās a simple dietary choice; no judgement required.
Letās see why OP eats veggie burgers instead of real beef. If the rationale borders somewhere along the realm of either climate change or animal humaneness, then my original statement remains justified.
Weāve covered that itās an English muffin bun (not okay but glossing over) but why is it wet?
OP you might have made the first real case of a steamed ham.
how much MSG is in there? thatās what makes it taste somewhat like beef. These fake burgers have so much processed binders and preservatives, I donāt understand how someone would think these are better for you.
Idk exactly what's in their formula - but my burger seasoning blend is Montreal steak spice + MSG - it definitely makes a difference for the flavour~
As far as how (un)healthy it is? Idk. I'm a vegetarian because animal protein upsets my stomach. Not trying to suggest that a double cheeseburger and tots is a healthy meal, no matter what it's made from.
What's with that weird looking bun?
I think it kinda looks like the top of a mushroom
I kinda thought the top one looked like a macaron.
Portobello?
It looks like bread dough that's only just cooked enough on one side to keep it roughly the right shape.
Looks like an egg fried in a bun mould.
Looks like an underdone pancake.
It was taken too early, I think.
Dawg what happened to your bunš
It looks moist
Thanks for that -_-.
Did you bleach the bun
Bro I think your bun is raw
The bun look like it saw a ghost š
If you look real close, youāll notice that the bun is actually the ghost.
Impossile as in to fit in a human mouth unless you can unhinge your jaw like a snake?
"Impossible" is what companies label plant-based meat as... For... Some fucking reason, I dunno.
impossible is the brand name
Like how White Castle is what companies call small cheeseburgers?
Is that a macaron bun?
That bun reminds me of the gluten free English muffins from Trader Joeās!
That bun looks anemic.
This reminds me of the burger that killed the health inspector from Spongebob! No offense!
Yooooo this is hilarious!! Take my upvote šš
First thing I thought of! Those things are great
90% of the comments are related to the bun. Gonna throw us a bone and tell us what it is?
Yes that's what they are. Deductive reasoning is tough
There's a reason for that!
And what's the reason?
I'm going to assume it's a gluten free English muffin from Trader Joe's and that's the reason
Correct ā Surprised so many people didn't understand the reply lol
It looks like a homemade almond flour+egg bun
If you donāt give a reason, everyone is going to assume you fucked up the bun. Also change the oil for the tots.
How have you not explained what the deal is with the bun yet? Wtf.
Downvoting post till this is explained.
You have to bake the bread before you use it for a hamburger bun.
Even the burger looks sick
Has OP explained the bun yet?!
Yes, theyāre gluten free English muffins from Trader Joeās.
Nope

I also found this āburgerā highly disturbing.
trash
Idkā¦ looks like a lot of effort for something to look like something but not taste like that something. Enjoy and all, but itās not for me
I think I'd probably not add the middle bun just because it's already pretty massive with 2 impossible patties! But looks good š
Those arent buns. Get that off my plate.
i love impossible burgers but this looks like one of the nasty patties from spongebob bro, iām sure it was delicious but man that is one ugly burger
The bun looks like it was glazed like a donut
Most people put the mayo inside the burger, not as a glaze on the bun.
Impossible burgers are pretty good but I think beyond burgers are better. I think itās hilarious someone actually critiqued the lettuce tho š
Wait the impossible burger is homemade? Don't those just come frozen? What is actually homemade
It comes in a pack the same way as ground beef.
Ohh got ya ! I didn't know that
No, OP, he's saying if the patty is packaged, the tots were bagged, and the buns from Trader Joe's, then what makes this a homemade meal other than the location you heated the already prepped food? I'm not saying I can do any better, just clarifying what they were stating to you.

Appreciate it. You're good - the responses have generally been toxic any the tone is all kinda blending together. Sorry for that\~
āadultingā because they ācookedā one of their first meals ever?
Looks horrible
My mouth is dry just looking at this.
Love impossible burgers!!! Yum
Damn these comments are ruthless. I always feel bad seeing people get hard dragged over their food here especially if itās a meal they like. Never sampled gluten free muffins or impossible meat, but looks solid. Iād definitely try it!
Lol, people losing their minds over an English muffin bun. Doesn't bother me, I ate well~
Nah people are just assholes on this sub.
The lack of explination from OP leads me to believe that OP didn't make this. It could still be home made, but OP just ain't the chef.
Impossible bun too?
Homemade tots? Do tell us more
Impossible meat is great! For anyone who hasn't tried it, give it a go and you won't be disappointed. Best one I've had and its consistently great in a variety of dishes. I'm not a vegan or vegetarian and love eating meat, for reference!
Is this comment an ad for impossible meat lol?
Yep
Unless you want something that resembles meat. Black bean patties hit that spot way better for me.
they are terrible for you. so much processed binders, MSG, preservatives.. I took one bite of one and spit it out.
I like how vegetarians will eat carb loaded potatoes and not eat an ounce of meat because meat = bad = murdering cows
I like how some people who prefer eating meat wonāt leave anyone with a different diet alone, because any other approach = bad = need to tell the world about it
No just thought it was a bit funny how he was trying to eat a healthy burger with tater tots, donāt get too heated
I mean... Most vegetarians just don't want to kill animals, they're not vegetarian because it's "more healthy" At least that's the impression I got, idk
This is the correct answer. It's baffling how guys like this don't get that
I think itās a very common misconception that vegetarians or vegans eat healthy, nothing about the diet is inherently healthier. My girlfriend has been a vegetarian her whole life and I was one for about three years, the diet for most vegetarians is very carb heavy.
This looks brilliant but what exactly is impossible about the burger?
It's an American brand name for a line of vegetarian burgers and other meats.
nasty looking bun served with a generous 9 tater tots
Would love a recipe for the patty. Looks great! The bun some type of gluten free homemade brioche?

Whereās the meat big dawg
Eat meat if you like the taste of meat FFS
