Tried out the new plant-based whopper today, it's pretty good and the patty taste very
similar to actual meat. Great substitute !

Delicious experience of vegan burger. Very good dressing in the burger.
🍔@burgerkingsg Plant Based Whooper🍔 (f.t. @thevegetarianbutcher_sg)
Finally, its my turn to try Burger King's plant based
whooper. Having heard comments ranging from Cardboard to not bad, I was hesitant to spend my $8.40 here. Having said that, this is the most convenient vegan friendly meal in my area at the moment, so let's give this a try!
I ordered mine without Mayo to make it vegan. Disclaimer that they use the same grill, but since the buns and patty are vegan, I consider this edible 🤣
>> slide 2 for patty Cross section
At first bite, I was bracing myself for the dry patty, but actually, it's not bad leh. The patty probably tastes "well done" by meat standards, but before beyond and impossible meat, all vegetarian beef tended to be non tender and on the dryer side. It's no premium mock beef, but the pricing also reflects that.
It tastes like mock ham, but chunkier and stringier. I feel that it's actually decent for people used to normal mock meat. I think I'll compare the taste to princess meat (vegetarians know that's the cheap slices in economy bee hoon stores), with a more stringy veg mutton texture. Those who don't mind the cheaper mock meat taste definitely won't mind this.
And it comes with the usual suspects for a normal burger, with ketchup, pickles, lettuce and tomatoes. Definitely tastes like a burger.
>> slide 3 to see the warming station
I suspect since the patty is dry for some people maybe also owning to the low turnover. If the outlet made too many patties, and the patty stayed in the warming station too long post grill, it will be super dry. Plan your meal times accordingly. I think lunchtime is best to avoid this issue.
Anyway, all in all, its a decent burger. I like that despite that the patty is thin, it fills the entire bun. It's a pretty huge bun. And it tastes like a burger. If you want a burger, and you're not looking for a premium experience, this is the best fast food vegan friendly burger you can get now under 7 dollars(ala-carte). And way better than BK Veggie, a sad potato patty they ran for some time. 😂
Was expecting it to be quite bad but it’s pretty decent.. even the patty on
its own wasn’t too bad. Leaning on the ‘bland’ side yet still satisfying. Love the pickles and onions.. request to remove mayo to make it vegan.
Cannot compare the patty to impossible or beyond but somehow it really doesn’t taste bad instead rather enjoyable. Btw it is launched exclusively on Deliveroo for this 3 days (if I’m not wrong) and there’s a 1 for 1 promotion. 😬
This is an affordable and accessible option if you need a meal that fills your tummy and appetite.
Tastes really good! Im pleasantly surprised. Remember to opt out mayo!
