I really would like a patty that doesn't pretend to be meat. Something like old-school veggie patties from the pre-Yves, pre-Beyond era. More of a veggie fritter, I suppose.

I know people want the meat-burger experience, and that's fine. I'd like an option that doesn't resemble meat.

A guilty pleasure of mine is the Ikea veggie dog with cabbage and fried onions and mustard. Kinda like that.

I'm with you on this. It seems that the prevailing idea is that if we don't eat meat that we miss it or want a direct replacement. So they keep trying to make "fake meat". That might appeal to some people on the fence about it, but I haven't eaten meat in over 2 decades. I don't miss it. I don't want my food to taste like it. I don't want it to look like it. I want something tasty that an animal didn't have to suffer for.

There is a place near me called "Indian Burger Joint" which does something like this. Super tasty and great variety of different Indian flavours and styles.

I love me an aloo burger but it really doesn't have a lotta protein.

Not restaurant, but Costco sells a large pack of Morning Star farms BlackBean Burgers, and they are delicious...too bad a fastfood place hasn't picked these up for the menu
