Food Product Review: Sunshine Burgers

I would like to start this post by saying I am not a vegetarian. I enjoy chicken, fish, & beef on occasion. I do however, enjoy finding different ways to incorporate protein in my diet in ways other then meat. I've tried various brands of vegetarian products, and so far, Morning Star products are my favorite. I stopped by our local organic store and noticed these sunshine burgers in the freezer section. They are labeled as vegan. And the only ingredients listed were: Organic Ground Raw Sun-Flower Seeds, Organic Brown Rice, Organic Carrots, Organic Herbs, & Sea Salt. They come three per box and were pretty pricey at $4.79 per box. At first I hesitated because of the price, but decided to give them a try. To my suprise, they tasted pretty good! The only odd thing is that they look green. I had mine for lunch today. I heated it up and put in a pita pocket with raw spinach, mushrooms, shredded carrots, red onion, and a drizzle of honey mustard dressing. This was a pretty good combo and quite filling at 190 calories and 13gm fat per burger. I would definately buy these again (not too often due to the high price) because they are so filling and taste good! If your looking for a vegetarian burger that tastes like a burger... this isn't for you. While sunshine burgers have great flavor, they don't imitate the flavor of beef. Hope you found this review helpful!
