- Introducing the new Beyond burger, I'm beyond excited.
(laughs)
- That's pretty good, that's a freaking cold open.
Hey its a cold open here.
Today we're going to find
the best drive through veggie burger.
- Oh hell yeah.
I've been looking for a good meet replacement cheese burger
for like two years now, and Impossible burger
and Beyond burger are like the best I've had.
- And Maya you are not vegetarian.
- I am not but listen,
I love food.
- Anyone hungry?
- I'm freaking hungry. - Oh man.
- Carl's Jr now has a Beyond burger.
(beat boxes)
♪ See we're going to Beyond burger gonna eat some fries ♪
♪ I'm a vegetarian, I'm not high ♪
♪ But I'm gonna like the food ♪
♪ And I'm gonna eat it all ♪
♪ 'cause I'm hungry right now, and we're gonna have a ball. ♪
- Carl's Jr we made it.
- There it is.
- We made it, we made it.
- [Matt] Little star he's smiling at us
- Thank you.
- [Moses] That looks pretty freaking good.
- [Megan] Oh yum.
- [Matt] Oh yes.
- You guys, if this is good, I'm gonna be so happy.
- I want this to be too.
- Ready? - Yes, cheers.
- If I were really in the mood for a cheeseburger
I would totally drive to Carl's Jr to buy this.
- It's also like less heavy obviously,
- Mmhmm.
- Than a meat patty
but I don't think it's like the best.
- I like this a lot.
- Yeah, this is pretty good, I'd get this
and I'm not vegetarian.
- How much is this?
- It was six dollars.
(record scratches)
- Are you serious?
Each burger? - [Matt] That's cheap.
- That's like a revelation, like to have a meatless burger
for six dollars, so many more people can buy it now.
- Next up,
is actually my go to veggie burger, the Burger King
Morningstar Whopper.
- I have little experience with Morningstar products
so I'm excited.
- So this one is, just the burger is four dollars.
I don't like this at all.
- It tastes like a carrot.
- Oh my god. - No,
it's kind of spicy which is bizarre.
- I do not like this.
It has no flavor, even the sauce it trying to give it
a little kick and it's like hard in some places.
- That's the thing about veggie burgers
people are always complaining about the texture
which I understand, and on the Beyond burger
it was like really surprisingly good.
- Smooth, it was smooth, seamless.
- And this literally has a seam.
- This could fool me as chicken maybe.
Like if you said it was like a chicken patty.
It's like, yeah, I could see that.
I don't think I'd order it again,
the texture's kind of weird, it's a little dry,
overall not the worst veggie burger I've ever had.
- I just don't know about your palate Matt.
'cause you raved about this.
You just like eating bland things?
- Normally I get it with cheese
I also get it with mustard.
- He just said the word mustard
so I think that really just discredited him.
- You're about to go against mustard?
On the internet, you love mustard.
- [Maya] You don't like mustard?
- Mustard sucks.
- [Matt] Oh man.
- I'm coming from the perspective of someone
who loves the taste of meat and misses it
and wants a replacement but there are lots of vegetarians
and vegans who really don't like the taste of meat.
And in that case this could be a very good alternative.
- What's the next one, I need one to replace that.
- We need some inspiration please.
- The third place that we chose
White Castle, has a brand new Impossible Burger
but we don't have any White Castle's in California
and I didn't know that, so we're going to
a very California place, Fatburger.
Who also has the Impossible burger.
♪ We're going to Fatburger to eat the Impossible burger ♪
♪ It doesn't have any meat ♪
- That was pretty good.
- What do you guys know about Fatburger?
- I just had Fatburger the other day,
the fries are amazing.
But I've never had the Impossible burger there.
- [Matt] They do not have a drive through.
So I have to get out of the car.
(upbeat music)
- [Maya] Hi.
- Fatburgers.
- Gimme those burgers if they fat.
- Alrighty.
It was also very expensive.
- Was it.
- $43.
- No, what?
- They're like 10 bucks.
- [Moses] This better be the (beeps) Cadillac of burgers.
- [Matt] It's a Fatburger baby.
- [Maya] Let me see (beeps).
- [Moses] That looks like meat dude.
- Whoa. - Whoa.
That does looks like meat.
- Mmmm.
- Big mmm.
- Mmmhmm.
This is it chief.
This is it.
What is it?
It.
The flavor hits you in the taste buds.
Its like wake up.
- I don't know, the meat kind of tastes like In N Out meat
a little bit.
- Hmm.
- You know what I mean?
- Is this real though?
It tastes real.
- [Matt] What if it's real meat?
- This is really good.
- This is really really good.
- I'm not full anymore, I'll eat the whole thing.
- Me too.
- I don't like it?
- What?
- [Moses] No.
- Why, porque?
- Could have been the other two burgers I ate beforehand.
- I feel like I didn't even eat those burgers,
I feel like I'm tasting this on an empty stomach.
- It was okay.
- We're headed back to the office.
We've eaten the Beyond Burger from Carl's Jr,
the MorningStar Burger from Burger King
and the Impossible Burger from Carl's Jr.
What did you think?
- Listen, Carl's Jr was popping,
Burger King was not popping.
Fatburger popped the (beeps) off.
- I think Carl's Jr pop, lock and dropped it.
And then MorningStar just dropped it.
- [Maya] Dropped it, yeah.
- And then Fatburger Impossible burger
picked it back up again.
- And reversed it.
- In my books Carls Jr definitely won.
I think the best meat was Fatburger but
the toppings and the way the burger came together
it was the best one in my opinion,
the other one's just I don't know what they were doing.
Burger King is in it's own category.
- I'm gonna go ahead and give a big shout out
to my man Burger King, the Burger King
for being the first one to even dip their toe
in the freaking veggie burger game.
I gotta give big ups to them.
- I'm gonna go get a Beyond Burger from Carl's Jr
maybe tonight.
- I'll get the Carl's Jr for sure.
- I'm Megan and I'm full of burgers.
- I'm Maya and I am also that.
Thanks for watching.
