Beyond Meat's Plant-Based Burger Lands in Dutch Supermarkets: Tastes and Looks Just Like Beef

Beyond Meat s Plant-Based Burger Lands in Dutch Supermarkets: Tastes and Looks Just Like Beef

Exciting news for plant-based enthusiasts: Beyond Meat burgers are now available in the Netherlands, hitting supermarket shelves today!

Beyond Meat has revolutionized plant-based meats globally. We sampled their burger last Friday, and truthfully, without prior knowledge of its vegetarian origins, we wouldn't have suspected a thing.

Proteins, Fats, Minerals, and Water from Plants

Beyond Meat crafts its burgers by sourcing meat's core nutrients—proteins, fats, minerals, and water—directly from nature. Peas deliver the protein, beets lend the realistic red hue, while coconut oil and potato starch ensure juiciness and bite. This makes the Beyond Burger nutritionally comparable to beef, minus the animal. Its meat-like appearance places it on supermarket meat shelves worldwide.

More Protein, Less Impact

Each Beyond Burger offers more protein than a traditional hamburger, with reduced fat, and no GMOs, soy, or gluten. Production slashes resource use: 99% less water, 93% less land, nearly half the energy, and 90% fewer CO2 emissions.

About Beyond Meat

Founded in 2009, Beyond Meat pioneers plant-based meat to tackle livestock farming's challenges: health risks, climate change, resource depletion, and animal welfare.
