To appeal to the huge number of people who,although not vegetarians, are consciously reducing their meat consumption.

That actually looks quite edible and may give this a try. Hopefully they’ll be some meat fat left on the grill. Anybody know what plant this is based on? Hopefully not that fungus stuff (Quorn) which makes me hurl.
I know someone who would happily go for that. She hasn't eaten meat since she was 12, but will happily have meat based gravy and Yorkshires done in lard with a Sunday roast. She would not care about a bit of meat flavour on the grill.It's funny when the staff at a restaurant or pub are really apologetic about not having veggie gravy or something. She just says She is the worst vegetarian and wants her gravy.
I accidentally had one of those rebel whoppers last week.
It was front and centre on the screen when I ordered with no explaination (and I was in a hurry) it looked pretty good.
I then stood back and noticed the posters/adverts everywhere for the plant based burger.
It was quite nice. Not sure if that was because of the meat juices or I was hungry.
Not quite as good as a meat one but not bad at all.

2 Chinese students I can see from the office window have taken their face masks off so they can have a smoke.
They've now put the masks back on and have gone back inside
An Asian colleague of mine tells me its not intended to protect themselves but to protect others. Its seen as polite. so, when they have a cold or a virus they wear amsk to stop it spreading.They've now put the masks back on and have gone back inside
Somehow that intent has evolved into self protection.

The Rebel Whopper® is plant-based; however, it is cooked on the same broiler as our original WHOPPER® to deliver the same unique flame-grilled taste. Due to shared cooking equipment it may not be suitable for vegetarians.
What’s the point?!

A version of it already exists in most bike shops. I've seen it many times, in various forms. It's more prevalent in the internet age, but has existed for a good long time. Bicycle maintenance is one of those areas where most cyclists know a little about it, and do varying amounts of work themselves. They only take the really difficult jobs (or jobs that are rarely tackled but need specialist tools they're unwilling to invest in) to the bike shop. The last thing the shop's grease monkey needs is some youtube educated armchair expert looking over their shoulder telling them they're not doing it right...
I think I have a new hero

True. I do most of my running repairs but haven’t the knowledge or the stones to attempt fitting a press fit bearing into a carbon frame

This is especially true when the mechanic is doing something for the first time on a certain bike, and don't want anyone wondering why they took that panel off, when there's nothing behind there that they need Gassing Station | The Lounge | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
