Yes. They have them at some restaurants. They are tasty and my dh likes them as well. I will still take a bean burger over them because I know what is in it. The Beyond Burger I consider more of a treat, something I would eat only a few times a year. The reason is because it is a processed and not a whole food from what I understand.

Thanks! I picked some up this afternoon so I will try them this week.

That's great! I wish my cheerleading had counted towards my PE!! When I was in Junior High, I played basketball and did cheerleading, but neither counted for PE credits. Then in High School, I was a cheerleader for football and basketball my freshman year, but didn't go out for it again because of how catty it became. I might have stuck it out if I could have gotten out of PE. There should really be an alternative PE course for clutzes. You do not want to put a badminton racquet in my hand. It's just not a good idea. Also, any kind of projectile, like a volleyball. I am convinced the only reason I did no bodily injury to anyone else in junior high basketball is because I was bench warmer. (I did manage to severely sprain my ankle during practice, and I remember taking an elbow to the mouth once during a game in the 2 minutes that I played, and the girl apologized profusely.)

I think if it was sideline cheer, like where they are just cheering a football game that wouldn't count.

Whats this "Summer" vacations everyone talks about? I havent had real vacations for 15 years now

Hey, wait a minute! You've been on some awesome cruises and various trips over the past few years. Those are what I call vacations!!

They have pea protein. Have no idea what that is

Burgers pee? Oh wait . . . you said, pea.

Basically it is ground up peas. They then remove the fiber and starch so all you are left with is the pea protein isolate. It is a hypoallergenic protein alternative to people allergic to soy, gluten, and dairy. You don't get bloating from it either.

@dryerlintfan and @figmentfan423 If either of you ever decides to come to Oahu, there's a military hotel next to the Hilton on Waikiki called the Hale Koa. It looks super nice. They're also building a pool complex there that looks like a mini water park. Definitely worth checking out if you ever decide to vacation over here.

Just by coincidence, that is what I am planning this summer. They have great rates at Endless Summer Resort which is about to open in a couple of weeks. (I'm not going until September) This is the first trip that I am both looking forward to and at the same time dreading. Although I am working to get my mobility up to shape, I'm thinking that I may need use a scooter in both Uni and WDW. A prospect that depresses me to the core. In 35 years of heading to Florida not once have I dreaded the possibilities. If I had known I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself. (I love that phrase) (However, I still wouldn't have eaten kale)

Take care of yourself and get a scooter because you deserve a good vacation after all you've been through! @Gabe1 and @bee may know who to suggest

@MySmallWorldof4 have you tried the Beyond Burgers? My Dd told me about them. She loves them.

Just my 2 cents, they're a bit meaty, my guys love them and the sausages

We got that email just after returning from Shades of Green, thnx for thinking of us.

Summer vacation= the time of year when I have more work and get less sleep because I insist on spending quality time at the pool(when it's not raining)

That being said they're wayyyyyy healthier than Impossible.

What's going on with the lack of excitement over the new restaurant over at the Riviera being open for ADRS?

I used Scooter Bug and had a good experience! You can read my report (“BROOM BROOM” link in my signature) if you want to know more about my scooter trip!

And I learned something new. I thought they were the same thing. Thanks!!!

Whew....finally bedtime. I've been reading TRs while helping DD finish her report for History. She had to write about a historical figure who died prior to 1950 and chose to write about one of our ancestors, who was a stone mason, a minister, a civil war Union officer, and later a secretary of state. Kind of obscure, but a very interesting subject, and since I have done all the family genealogy, and my cousin wrote a book, there was enough information there. She got it sent in about 30 minutes before the deadline. Goodnight!!

What are the ingredients?

Impossible Burger is made from proteins, flavors, fats, and binders. The key difference from your average beef burger? Our ingredients are derived from plants. Here’s an overview: Protein from soy...

Good night and he sounds like he was a very interesting person
