Veggie Burgers Let You Say, ‘Make Mine Meatless’

The best burgers at your summer BBQ might not have a shred of beef in them. Consumer Reports notes that veggie burgers are having a moment, reporting that 25% of Americans say meatless burgers are on the menu in their house more than once per month; many eat them several times weekly. The veggie burger renaissance is part of a trend toward eating more plant-based foods, like Lightlife’s Smart Patties. Consumer Reports comments that the Smart Patties taste great and are also low in calories (100 calories per patty).
