“The fact that our Organic Plant-Based Burger is made with plants and not with science has resonated with people. No one wants to eat a burger hidden with artificial or modified ingredients if they have the choice,” said President Danny Goodman in the Don Lee Farms press release. “They want natural. They want organic. They want real.”
The Organic Plant-Based Burgers are famous for being one of those “bleed” vegetable burgers. (Similar to the Beyond Meat burgers sold on your TGI Fridays menu.) Just like a regular hamburger patty, these burgers will look similar by “bleeding” organic beet juice. Compared to other vegetable burgers, this one will get juicy just like any normal hamburger. Although the reasoning behind this item’s recent popularity is unknown, this could certainly be a factor.
Don Lee Farms products are found at Costco, as well as Whole Foods, WalMart, and Smart & Final. You can find them in the frozen food section, along with a plethora of their other scrumptious-looking items.
