As someone who doesn’t eat meat, I’m always on the hunt for good patties. Before giving up meat, I loved hamburgers and fries. It was my once-a-week guilty pleasure. I have tried A LOT of vegetarian patties including Boca burgers, Morning Star, Trader Joe’s, Dr. Preagar, Garden Burger, and Gardein. All were “okay” if I really spiced it up with spices and toppings but most would fall apart and didn’t have that meaty texture I was looking for….until I tried QUORN veggie burgers. These are BY FAR THEE BEST veggie burgers I’ve ever tried. I’ve tried three products from them: the chik’n patty, classic burger patty, and chik’n nuggets. All were fantastic!

The PERFECT fried chicken patty. The patty is breaded and crispy once baked in the oven. Tastes very, VERY similar to chicken. Texture is perfect and holds up well…I’ve tricked a few people into thinking that they’re eating real meat. Everyone that has tried this patty is really impressed!

This patty had a great structure. It DID NOT fall apart. It had a great smoky meat flavor and makes the perfect cheese burger. Honestly, you guys would feel like you’re eating the real thing. Unfortunately, it is NOT VEGAN, its made of mycoprotein, egg whites, sunflower oil, onion, and a whole bunch of spices to make it tasty.

I believe 85g = 5 chik’n nuggets. But these are yummy and delicious! I bought these before I even started eating vegetarian and I didn’t even know these were meat-less. They’re THAT good. Perfect for younger kids. Delicious and very good texture.
These meatless products are soo good. I really suggest that you guys try it. The only places I have found that sold these patties are Whole Foods Market and a small health market near my house. Each box is about five dollar so not the cheapest but definitely worth it. Have you guys tried this?? Let me know what you think! I love them!
