- Can this burger save the world? Meat is one of the biggest causes of greenhouse gases. Hence Bill Gates and Google's latest big idea: a meat-free burger made in a laboratory from plants, but which bleeds and sizzles. Now it's coming to Britain.
Watch Sunday Times Driving columnist Jeremy Clarkson take the Impossible burger challenge.

great camera work here, I really enjoyed not being able to see the burger
well i guess that was the whole point, maybe jeremy liked the veg burger and didnt like the meat one, but they wouldnt wanna show him in bad light
Imagine seeing a hamburger. There ya go.

"My taste buds have been shot from 45 years of smoking"

If someone doesn't get it: he is smoking from the age of 12
Wait I don't get it 45+57 doesn't equal 12.
@@Kevin-ch1xj you take 57-45=12, you idiot, lol.

@@cantsolvesudokus what you talking about? why would you take 12 divided by 45?
Jeremy ages 3 years every year.
because he smokes 80 a day
Hes the same age as me but in the last 5 years he made me look 15 years younger....and 5 stone lighter. He wins on bank balances tho. :(
Because he eats too much red meat.
Memes
If he smokes 80 cigarettes a day and can tell the difference, the vegetarian (genetically modified yeast) burger doesn't taste like meat at all.
Well I assume he sleeps at some point and that means one every 5 minutes. I think that might be a slight exaggeration, but you can tell that it's effecting his health unfortunately. He's a little slower than he maybe should be for his age. Occasionally on TGT I'll see this slackjawed look he gives that my grandma who had COPD had.
I judge how old a top gear episode is by the degree in which jeremy clarkson resembles a potato
This is funnier said in his own voice.
Bald potato vs. sprouted potato

They should make a carrot out of meat
by keeping those damned soya farmers from slaughtering those innocent plants
Cows, sheeps etc are supposed to be slaughtered. They live for our pleasure. Suck on that, hippie!!!
Pyramus K Typical idiot comment. What does 'supposed' mean? Supposed by who? Supposed by you, presumably. Can you tell me why cats and dogs are presumably not 'supposed to be slaughtered'? Or is it only the creatures that you in your wisdom choose?
Animals are our fellow inhabitants of this planet, whom we should treat with love and respect. But of course it takes a minimal amount of intelligence and empathy; minimal but far more than you are ever likely to have. In fact, if the height of your reasoning is who or what lives for your 'pleasure' then there is no hope that you would ever have even a glimmering of understanding of such concepts as the pain and fear suffered by others, let alone 'intelligence' and 'empathy'.
Patrick McAsey plants are our fellow inhabitants of this planet, whom we should treat with love and respect. But of course it takes a minimal amount of intelligence and ampathy; minimal but far more than you are ever likely to have. Etc, etc
I get a lot of reasons to be a vegetarian but being one cuz of the poor animals is just a dumb reason
BTW our livestock is actually made to die and get eaten by us
Just like our plants and all other living things we eat we bred them to be like this
Also the average dog suffers more than the average pig/cow cuz of our breeding why don't you protest against dog owners? Cuz you don't see them suffer
Next time you call a comment idiotic think before you comment
Magyar Huszar A plant isn't an 'inhabitant'. An inhabitant is a person or animal that lives in or occupies a place, and a plant is neither a person nor an animal - or didn't you realise this? You seem to have a problem distinguishing between animals and plants. Don't worry! Just look below. Furthermore, the word is 'empathy' and not 'ampathy' as you have it. I think your misspelling of this word shows how familiar you are with empathy, doesn't it? And, by the way, while on the topic of writing, you should learn how to punctuate. You will find that it will make what you write much easier to read. Surely, you learnt how to punctuate at school?
1. In case you hadn't noticed it, plants are not sentient beings. They are alive, but they have no consciousness or central nervous system. Strange, isn't it, how meat eaters, who couldn't give a damn about animal suffering, suddenly become aware that 'plants have feelings'? And if this nonsense were true then it would be an even stronger argument not to eat animals. The animal food industry consumes vast amounts of plant food. If everyone ate plant food then vastly fewer plants would be eaten.
2. I am just as concerned about the trade in pets as I am about the way we treat animals that are eaten, and indeed about the shameful way we treat all animals, be they 'farm animals', pets or any kind of animal life. Have you watched 'Earthlings'? You should. It begins with the pet industry.
The majority of people who eat meat could never slaughter an animal themselves - many can't even bear to watch videos of animals in slaughterhouses - and yet they are OK with others doing the slaughtering for them. I call this hypocrisy.
You know as well as I do that animal slaughter is a filthy, cruel business, that no civilised person should have anything to do with it, and that the vast animal slaughter puts us to shame as a species. I believe that one day, when we have become a rather more humane species than we are, it will be illegal to kill any animal, but that will be far far into the future. Just as slavery took a long time to be made illegal (but is still with us in all but name), so will animal slaughter,

Some veggie burgers taste pretty good, but none of them actually taste like meat.

When done correctly they're freakin' awesome without pretending to be a slice of dead cow. Dammit, now I want a good veggieburger.
Uncle Bonedwarf Well... that argument isn't really good. The most unhealthy stuff taste the best. And Cyanide (a substance that can kill a human if ingested in fairly small doses) tastes really sweet. Like sugar. But I agree with you.
+Uncle Bonedwarf if meat tastes so good why do you season it with plants

I've tried an impossible burger. They definitely do not taste like beef. It wasn't bad by any means but no where close to being an unmistakable substitute.
But I am sure that is why it tasted different to you

@@Syko1985 thanks, I planned on it!
@@Syko1985 if you're against meat, then why try to fake it? We've been trying to cut back on the meat we eat, but we do it by either just eating smaller portions of meat or cooking vegetarian.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart I'm sure that tired joke would be funny if humans weren't also made of meat.
No animal eats one of it's own by nature.
not sure where you pulled that from. There are many animals that are cannibals.
Cannibalism? Sure they do, just not particularly common. Sharks would be the most obvious example. Apparently hippos do it. Several insects and spiders and such eat their mates. If they have nothing else to eat I think mice and rats will resort to cannibalism. I think some make predators eat the young of others, or even their own.

human is omnivore, we can't live a good life by eating only vegetables or only meat. you need veggy for vitamin and meat for protein
Living in L.A. and having tried both real burgers and the impossible burger, there is definitely a difference between them- the impossible burger, while it tastes similar to a burger, tastes as if someone figured out a way to describe the flavour of meat and described it to someone who has never eaten meat before, who then made the closest possible approximation. It definitely does not taste exactly like meat, but it's close. Even without the burger being 10-hours old, it would still be noticeable.
Just a side note, although I prefer real meat, the flavour of the Impossible burger is actually quite nice in my opinion.
but what of texture and juiciness?
I used to love the veggie burgers at Hungry Jacks (the Australian version of Burger King). It was basically a whopper, but instead of meat it used a veggie patty that was pretty much the same as bubble & squeak. It didn't try to fool you into thinking it was meat, and it didn't taste like offal like Hungry Jack's burgers in the 90s did.
There was one veggie burger I really liked and it was a Woolworths Cafe Shroom Burger.
Two portobello mushrooms with cheese in the middle, crumbed and fried, with delicious garlic mayo with a side of crispy chip wedges. It was fantastic and they had it for years, but they removed it from the menu some time ago and replaced it with an asperges burger - which also disappeared from the menu not long after.

If any meat went through a ten hour unrefigerated flight it would probably be inedible to be fair.
Really any food that is not fresh is going to taste worse than something made fresh.
Though in the end no meat substitute will be able to fully replicate meat and I'd say it's better to find something new than to try and copy meat.

When the guy that invented it said you will crave it, that tells me there is baby in it. I looked up the only production plant that has an address, weird as in how can they provide so many burger places with these burgers from such a small building, but there is a abortion clinic across the street, a place that houses homeless next door and the other next door is a dog food plant. Sounds pretty perfect if you ask me.

I love how I got a mcdonalds ad on this video

Damn that burger looks juicy af. I'm glad the video showed it a lot.
Here's the contradiction about these fake burgers: they are made from plant protein isolate (e.g. pea and/or soy) and some sort of seed oil (e.g. canola, soy) that are the products of unsustainable mass mono-crop agricultural practices that require endless fossil fuel derived fertilizer, endless irrigation, and that slowly but surely destroy the top soil. Factory farming of grain fed beef is no better, makes a less healthy product (meat that is stripped of omega-3), and makes the animals sick to boot. BUT: pasture raised, grass fed beef, raised as natural ruminants, are the exact opposite. They are part of the virtuous sustainable cycle that we call "life", as old as evolution itself, that builds top soil, feeds the very perennial grasses that the animals consume, and creates healthy animal food products. The fake meat products are a regression, the real "Beyond Meat" or "Impossible burger" product that we should all be striving for is one that simply returns beef to its natural ruminant state.
It’s 2021 and beef farmers should start to cry 🤗
my mum tried to fool me once with veg mince chilli con carne when i was a kid.
she done goofed
To quote him:
"This is brilliant,
but I like this."
Here's a short story about one of my vegetarian friend. She was travelling in Finland at one point and one evening I receive a call from her and she asks "Hey you understand finnish language?". I said yes I do and so she says "I was pretty hungry and wanted to get something to eat and there was this shop selling some very nice looking pies. I didn't understand what the sign said but I bought one and am eating it right now and, I honestly will say this, I have never ever eaten anything this good before! Taste is absolutely incredible but I cannot quite place the flavor and I don't know what the sign said, what does "lihapiirakka" mean?" So I told her, "Well, you as a life-long vegetarian will be pleased to know that this pie, which you so much like and which tastes absolutely incredible is a meat pie, that's what that word means". There was a long moment of silence, followed by ".. well, it tastes so good, so I will not waste food and will eat it!"
Note that I am not a vegetarian myself, although there's one point which needs to be cleared for vegetarians about non-vegetarians, because they don't seem to get it otherwise - we do NOT eat just and only meat. We are not carnivores as such, but by definition omnivores. Meaning that we eat all, this includes plants and meat. I do like a piece of good steak, who doesn't? But I don't munch on it alone, I have some fries or fried potatoes with it which, by the way, are "plants". I may have some salad on the side which is made also from plants. I add some sauce on it or on the side and all of those sauces are made pretty much from plants. Every now and then I may just eat some salad as a light snack and have no meat in it at all. Point is, we the "meat eaters" don't eat only meat, we eat "plants" too, difference is we're not faking who we are and are not trying to "lure" and "cheat" others into "our way". We accept that you have different taste and are fine with it, so please be polite and return the courtesy. Only reason a vegetarian can get some angry responses from non-vegetarian is because they're trying "forcefully" to recruit someone into their "religion".
Honestly this was made way better by the fact that they didn’t even know which was which, and had to ask the chef
"Oh no anyway"
I just love that man his reaction golden you got me dying rolling over laughing
For me the main reason for making lab grown meat is to be able to enjoy meat without supporting the side effects of the meat industry, such as global warming and bad animal conditions. There’s nothing wrong with eating meat, I do it, I just think people should understand about the energy that is wasted when growing animals compared to growing plants, as well as the greenhouse gases they release such as methane and CO2. Its tiring to see people treat vegetarianism as dumb when there are real environmental benefits to avoiding meat.
Thank you, i agree with you. I don't personally like the fact animals die for humans pleasure but i don't hate people who do eat meat.
Animals die forbut food. That's just life.
If it was the other way around I don't see the other side caring either.
Anyway the planet's shot, so best live like a long while it lasts. We'll be dead by then so it's not our problem.

Imagine asking a butcher if they do steaks shaped like peas....
@Rob Flynn - The point is simply to provide an alternative/substitute to meat, of which there are numerous reasons for doing so. Quorn is a high protein low fat alternative to meat, and for this reason I know people who consume meat who also consume Quorn.
Quorn is only one of a number of different alternatives though. The general consensus is that Quorn is a bland product and subpar in comparison to meat, but as someone who has only ever been vegetarian I have no experience of consuming meat to compare with. I am satisfied with it more than most meat eaters would probably be for that exact reason... I am not comparing it to something else, I am taking it for what it is.
Some Quorn products such as slices are flavoured but the majority of Quorn I consume in main meals such as chunks and mince don't really taste of anything, and with these products I find my food tastes great because of the accompaniment of flavourings and spices. If I just had a bowl of quorn with nothing else I'd be pretty bored pretty fast.
Quorn is highly processed though. If you became vegetarian for the health benefits, you'd be better off eating real meat than Quorn
+GlitterBuzz Better off eating real meat than quorn products? Somehow you think a combination of soy, wheat, potatoes, onions, garlic, other natural flavors, spices, and herbs are more unhealthy than corpses? One meta-analysis for example found that vegans have 15% less total cancer. This is following a standard vegan diet that includes processed and heavily refined foods so it is hard to see what effects a whole food vegan diet would have on cancer levels. But it is clear that reducing exposure to preservatives and toxins in general are good for preventing cancer.

Dam you are a machine! I'm commenting on people's idiotic comments too, but dam you are everywhere haha!
According to a scientific study, eating meat will instantly give you cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Not only that, a split second later, you will be obese. Veganism also extends our lifetime by a few millennia. It is impossible to be healthy with a diet consisting of meat as it will shorten your life span by 50% as all meat is processed with added sugar, trans-fat etc. Processed meat is the only form of meat. The only reason healthy meat-eaters exist is that they don't as while they look healthy they are actually rotting away on the inside. Anybody who has lived long and ate meat was just because they were lucky and got beneficial vegan genes, the only thing keeping them alive, just like that smoking 90-year-old grandma we all have seen before.
If you become 100% vegetarian you will die from cancer caused by all the toxic colouring used in your tie-dye smocks and fishermans pants....
Why are vegans and vegetarians always trying to make copies of food that usually has meat in it?

@@Mr.M1STER Well, having thought more about it, that applies to anything I guess. Those who are anti drugs who have had before know that it is fun in the moment to have the stuff. Most vegetarians I have met like meat but they don't like the idea of eating it so of course some are going to like it. I still hold respect for them as they are exerting far greater self control than I could. If you want to watch a crack up of a video about vegans: th-cam.com/video/C7Yfg-tWbT4/w-d-xo.html
@@Mr.M1STER a vegetarian might like the flavour of meat but not want to be responsible for the unethical practice of the meat industry. Or for health reasons such as red meat having an association with cancer. This really too hard for you to figure out?
@@mattbower4763 You're replying to the wrong person.
"Right, this isn't a burger"
I like how Clarkson is ashamed or try to hide the fact that he's a smoker. Many celebrities hide this, because of the health or social stigmas. This man knows he enjoys a smoke, and doesn't care.
He’s since given up
I had something called a Beyond Burger a few years back (and I forgot to put any condiments on it, which didn't help). It was a touch dry compared to a normal patty, which should range from juicy to greasy, and it didn't QUITE taste like beef, but it really wasn't that noticeable unless you were doing a proper taste test. Honestly there's a bigger difference between, say, A&W burgers and Burger King burgers than there are between a beef burger and a beyond burger from the same restaurant.
I haven't tried the one in this video, but I imagine it's not much different really
Yeah. I havent tasted one but I'm sure if it's been a while since you had a beef burger and the taste isnt fresh in your mind to use as a reference, you could be handed one of these and if you werent told, you'd probably never think twice about it. And even if it was a bit different, you'd just assume it was of a different quality, older, seasoned different etc
he cut the burger with a knife? is that a uk thing?
Like Jeremy said, unless they have some commercial reason, naw bru! They aren’t trying to satisfy the vegetarians/vegans but turning the meat eaters. Not anytime soon!
Yeah, how bad of people to try and both treat animals in a nice way as well as save our environment.
How terrible of them!!
Didn’t say it made sense, but you could also look at all the obese people in America and cut their eating in half. You’d be feeding twice as many people and everybody would be healthier. Maybe come up for a solution for that?!
Get out of your own head. It’s not a place for reasonable people
I knew I wasn't going to be disappointed. Thanks Clarkson.
2:35 Holy F Jeremy carlson is in here.
Nether mind they are filming ill just act like im walking my hands....
😂😂😂😂😂
Most ppl: eating Burger with Hand
Jeremy Clarkson: *Fork knife*
Well, he is British.
Yeah cause sauce and oil on your hands is disgusting
@@iiiivvvv9986 can (kinda) agree with that
I had to look up budgerigar...it is a type of parakeet.
I've lived in USA and UK so yes, a budgie (nickname for a budgerigar in UK) is what Americans call a parakeet. Same bird just different names internationally.
Uncle Justin same lol, guess this expands our vocab so that’s good
Thanks for the info, wondered
Lol
Its a fuckin budgie . Sherlock
Clarkson's smug smile... gotta love it
I like how he called himself a passionate “meataterian.” It’s absolutely brilliant.
I liked the part where I couldn't see any of the food in question! Awesome!
That's a strong message. "if you want to be a vegetarian, go eat seeds, don't expect your vegetables to be meat"
My father is a vegetarian he loves the Impossible Burger. They usually sell this at Burger King, Apple Bees and Other Dinners
I like how no one is really impressed he's there lmao
They look like they dont belong in the uk and only watch pakistani tv at home thats why.
Yet another reason Mr Clarkson is a legend!
Reason why vegs would want plant-based meat replicas is because their whole life they have been eating meats and they have nostalgia. The reason they go veggie or vegan is not because they suddenly started hating on the taste of meat but rather for health and ethical reasons. plus when u just start veganism it can be hard to assimilate into veg diet so foods like that help you out. it like eating what you love most but with clear conscience. for instance,my fav food was kfc so now i love to enjoy kentucky fried compassion instead. plus, beyond meat burgers are 10x better than impossible - he should have tried that one first... also he is massively sponsored by meat industries so don't expect honest reviews from him.
Bullshit. You are meat lovers in denial. Plus., if you REALLY want a healthy life, exercise often and have a balanced diet with all kinds of foods. Thats the proper way.
Maybe he doesnt like the taste of that Burger, just like many others?
I love the end message making a crappy excuse about why the burger doesn't taste like meat 😂😂
Guys, do not fall for this!.. This is like that old Transvestite trick. The one that keeps giving you the eyes across the darkened nightclub.. Looks fantastic when you're drunk, until you're close enough to take a bite.... So do not eat this burger. You'll go home feeling like you've been violated... Trust me guys, this burger may have a big massive sausage in it. 😟
It may not be a perfect replica of beef, but it IS progress and it is a lot better than the stagnant 'veggie burgers' that have been marketed for decades. In time this replica will improve even more and cost less and be a viable option. At the moment, I cannot afford beef, or any kind of meat, actually. It's all out of my price range. So I hope someday I will have an option.
LS surprised that you even have a laptop/smartphone/tablet etc and can't even afford a 1 dollar burger they'll offer at mcdonalds
Cancel your internet plan, sell your device and start enjoying your food.
@CordiaSR - If you think what McDonald's calls a "burger" is REAL meat..then you ALSO can't afford the real thing..lol! Sad to see people who don't realize they are being sold soy protein being passed off as meat..lol.
Can you proved a citation with any evidence for that or is this yet another vegetarian conspiracy theory?
Provide* Come on tin foil wearing vegetarian, show us your source.
See I find that vegan meat tastes like it’s own type of meat. It doesn’t always taste exactly the same - just like it’s a new type of meat.
No man can fool Jeremy Clarkson
The best veggie patty I've ever had was made from black beans, and it had bacon in it.
"All American burgers are RUBBISH!!! Made from crap materials." *knocks on burger* ..."it sounds like a wheelie bin! RUUUBBBBISSSHHHH"
I'm definitely not a vegetarian. I've been enjoying cookouts (grilling) my entire life and have some sort of meat with most meals. I have also had impossible burgers more than once. Why? Because they ARE pretty damn good - just not the same as a beef hamburger. That said - I agree with one thing that was said by Clarkson. WHY do vegetarians make such a big deal out of mimicking meat if they're "against meat?" It's like people righteously substituting "fudge" for "fuck." We know your sentiment. We know you're cursing. You're just doing it less well than you could with the real thing. If you're against meat, just don't eat fucking meat.
@@MachLandar Kinda counter intuitive isn't it? Making a product for someone who'd never want it.
Don't ever consume impossible burger again. It is full of chemicals that have negative effects on your body including inflammation and gut disease.
Geniustrapper69 Yeah and normal meat is not full of bad things 😂😂? Whats next? Smoke Malboro instead of Kamel, becouse Kamel contains unhealthy chemical substances.
@@aleksandarkurbalija yeah, it's not filled with bad things unless it is factory farmed. Meat contains much more nutrients than any plant foods in its most bioavailable form. Meat also contains complete protein profiles that are also in its most bioavailable Form.
@@tlclookism Citation? Because this feels like the food claim equivalent of "vaccines cause autism."
