A California-based startup called Savor has figured out a unique way to make a butter alternative that doesn’t involve livestock, plants, or even displacing land. Their butter is produced from synthetic fat made using carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and the best part is —- it tastes just like regular butter.

Quote Randy Marsh from South Park, while tasting the impossible burger... "Wow this sucks. People actually eat this?"

They're not bad, on par or better than most frozen grocery store hamburger patties, and way better than the vast majority of fast food burger meat. No, they're not better than a hand ground 80% lean sirloin patty, but they could easily replace what McDonald's uses without their customers batting an eye.

I'm disappointed that Impossible Burger is the one available at most restaurants, because the Beyond Burger tastes way better imo.
