I cannot wait for this stuff to go mainstream. It looks and sounds amazing. I'm jealous of those who live in an area that sells it already.

Ahhhhhhhh!!

I saw this on the salad bar at my whole foods today! I bought some overpriced salad to try it!

And it's so, so good! It has a firmer, drier texture than Gardein, and a bit of a smoky flavor. One on my main complaints about Gardein chik'n is that it's too moist and chewy, as I always preferred actual chicken to be more dry. So the Beyond Meat is perfect for me! It is eerily chicken-like, and seems like it would be really great in a lot of chicken dishes.

Now I just need it to be available to purchase in packages!
 
I have a Whole Foods that will be opening up near me...not sure when but I hope it's soon! I want to try this Beyond Chicken!
 
It's at a store about an hour from me, but they only sell it in 5lb bags.

Wut? They don't even have it for sale in retail packs here. The only place to get it is the WF salad bar. I've seen that some WF locations are using it in some of their prepared foods, but the stores here almost never have prepared vegan specialty things.

It actually looks like the bags were meant for food service and not retail. It's in clear plastic bags with some codes and things stamped on it.
