I tested out Beyond Meat "beef" with the kids the other day (2 and 5). Hoping to give them alternatives when they find out all their favorite foods come from their favorite animal.
They both spit it out. The 5 yr old was particularly offended by it. And its not like they are just used to one kind of meat. I've given them venison, boar, buffalo, and elk unbeknownst to them.
I think it tastes pretty good, but it still doesn't taste like real meat.
