The veggie-burger industry is in the midst of a renaissance. Just a decade ago, vegans and vegetarians only had a few brands to choose from. And if we're being honest, none of the options were particularly delicious. But as technology has changed and demand for good meatless options has grown, the freezer aisles of grocery stores are now filled with exciting plant-based burgers.
As thrilling as that may be, it also presents a new problem: which ones are actually worth buying? We consulted veggie burger connoisseurs, scoured the internet, and even did a thorough taste test of some popular brands on the market today. Our team tried vegetable-forward patties as well as convincing meaty dupes, and ranked them all from worst to best.
So next time you're planning a meatless Monday dinner or want to host a veggie-friendly barbecue, check out this list to determine which store-bought burger is best for you.
