Ground Beef vs Turkey Burger vs Veggie Burger


Happy Panther

Recommended Posts

So i went burger shopping today and wondered what the best burger would be taking into account calories fat and salt.

Here is what I found out.

1 veggie burger patty vs 1 turkey burger potty vs 1 extra lean ground beef patty (1/4 pound)

Calories:

140 vs 170 vs 140

Fat

7g vs 8g vs 4g

Also sodium was lower in the ground beef

You can't make a turkey burger taste satisfying without putting so much fat into it that it is no longer healthy. I put a roasted veggie puree, Parmesan, worchestershire sauce, and some other stuff. It was good but not very healthy.

A veggie burger from the supermarket defeats the purpose. Just make a marinated mushroom sandwich it would be meaty and satisfying. Use a lot of soy or worchestershire sauce with roasted tomato. Those are very meaty ingredients. They have plenty of the "umami".

Regular burger just do something that's lean and mix in milk soaked bread crumbs or some fat free ricotta. Since your just using it as a tenderizer don't buy the expensive authentic stuff. Walmart brand low fat crap works just as well.

Don't buy pre-made burgers!

    • I agree. I’d make the move because I don’t see us sniffing the playoffs and let’s be honest TMac, Legette and Coker better be our top 3 future. If they aren’t and we need Thielen to replace one of them, then we need to draft yet another 1st round WR, SMH. Suffice it to say, Thielen isn’t good enough to get us into the playoffs so let’s get the young guys starting so we know if they aren’t good enough. We still have so many assumptions about whether players are who we need them to be that holding onto Thielen for 3-7 wins isn’t worth passing on a mid round pick (3rd to 5th/swaps). We’ve had some success with later round picks/UDFAs and need depth.
    • If you move Thielen I think you almost have to keep Renfrow. You need some sort of veteran presence in the locker room and Renfrow would be good insurance in the slot. I'm sure we have Coker penciled in to start there but you also have to be keeping Coker in the back of your head as XL insurance on the outside if he doesn't step up. If he flounders again, I wouldn't wait too awfully long to replace him with Coker outside and slide Renfrow into the slot and keep it moving. 
    • Playing the same role is different than having the same style.  Cam Newton and Drew Brees both played QB but arent the same type in any way.
