Final Verdict
The Beyond Burger earns points for being soy- and gluten-free, making it accessible for those with common dietary restrictions. It’s high in protein and iron, cholesterol-free, and a practical stand-in for beef—but the flavor leans more processed, and the saturated fat and sodium levels warrant moderation. It’s a useful option when convenience and comfort food cravings collide, but it’s not your everyday plant-based staple.
