More from the Ice Age Farmer, "Burger King announces they will be taking Impossible’s Bleeding Burger, the recently-FDA-approved GMO lab-grown meat backed by Bill Gates, into franchises nationwide".

I dunno, there is so much I want to add but I can't find the words that fit the moral code on SI. I'll just copy and paste .. sad.


"Originally, Impossible Foods harvested leghemoglobin from the roots of soy plants, but deemed that method unsustainable. Instead, they turned to genetic engineering, which they use to create a yeast engineered with the gene for soy leghemoglobin.

"This process allows us to make heme at scale with the lowest achievable environmental impact," according to the company.5 The full ingredients list of their "new" recipe, which was released in January 2019, is as follows:6

"Water, Soy Protein Concentrate, Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil, Natural Flavors, 2% or less of: Potato Protein, Methylcellulose, Yeast Extract, Cultured Dextrose, Food Starch Modified, Soy Leghemoglobin, Salt, Soy Protein Isolate, Mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E), Zinc Gluconate, Thiamine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B1), Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Niacin, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Vitamin B12. Contains: Soy"


And I won't mention the fact that "the Impossible Burger is a GMO food. The company maintains that the key ingredient of the Impossible Burger that gives it a meaty taste, SLH, is safe to eat. ... In its communications with Impossible Foods, the FDA expressed concern that SLH has never been consumed by humans and may be an allergen."
