| I'm a little torn on this one. It is such a unique little grocery food...a turkey flavored veggie patty that has a taste and even a texture that is somewhat close to turkey. There are a lot of veggie burgers out there, but there are few if any that can make that claim (Morningstar Farms has just come out with a turkey burger, but it is not all natural, has a weird aftertaste and has a texture that isn't so much like turkey). My biggest complaint with Quorn's turkey patty is the flavor (or a little lack thereof). It seemed kinda bland to me, so I'd make sure to pile on the veggies, light condiments and/or grilling spices. Also, the texture could be a little odd for some, as it is a circular block that breaks clean when you bite it off. That didn't bother me so much, but I can see that possibly terrifying those who are new to veggie options. All that aside, I say if you kick up the flavor, you've got yourself a nice little turk'y burger for under 100 calories. By the way, I put light guacamole and seasoning on this, which was a really great combo! |
