Vegan Burger With The Best Sauce Awesome Burger Review

Vegan Burger

A plant-based burger that looks like the real deal?! If I didn’t know it any better, I would actually think I am eating a traditional burger. However, this Awesome Burger is plant-based and doesn’t contain meat! How awesome is that?! What about the taste? The flavor is satisfying, it’s juicy, meaty, and nutty. Check the “conclusion” below for more details.

Why do I love the Awesome Burger?

It’s vegan! No animal had to suffer in the production of this vegan burger. It’s protein-rich, nutritious, and healthier than a meat burger! The texture and taste are pretty good. I wouldn’t claim this burger is 100% comparable to a beef burger though. The Awesome Burger contains only plant-based ingredients and was developed in the kitchen, not a lab. It’s NON-GMO Certified.

Environmental Advantages

Not only are plant-based burgers healthier than meat-based burgers, but they are also environmentally friendly. According to the Los Angeles Times, “A 1/3-pound burger requires 660 gallons of water. Most of this water is for producing beef.” This fact alone is shocking to me!

No Cow Had to Suffer For An Awesome Burger

Did you know that 24 billion pounds of beef are sold each year in the U.S.?! It’s time to change that and transition a huge portion to plant-based proteins! It’s 2019 and there is no need to consume animal products. There are so many plant-based substitutes out there and nowadays it’s possible to “veganize” almost every dish. Just browse my site and see for yourself that vegan cuisine offers so many amazing dishes, which are flavorful, versatile, cruelty-free, and healthy!

Nutrition Facts

The protein of the Awesome Burger comes mainly from textured pea protein but the burger patty also contains wheat gluten which, unfortunately, doesn’t make it gluten-free. It contains 26 grams of plant-based protein per patty, which is amazing, in my opinion. Other nutrition facts: One burger patty has 260 calories, 15 grams of fat, and 6 grams of fiber.

Conclusion:

I would definitely recommend giving the Awesome Burger a try! It’s juicy, tasty, healthier than a traditional burger, environmentally friendly, and cruelty-free! It doesn’t taste exactly like a beef burger which doesn’t make me sad though because I do NOT miss the taste of meat! The burger reminds me rather of turkey with a nutty note. When you transition from a meat-based diet to a vegan diet, this burger is very satisfying! I wish Sweet Earth could produce a gluten-free version without wheat but I know it’s very difficult to mimic the taste and texture of meat without gluten. All together I would give this plant-based burger a thumbs up!
