    Hi everyone

    Does anyone know where I can buy Beyond Burgers?

    They were in Tesco but are not in stock since Brexit.

    I went to Iceland Tallaght and Lidl and none there either.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Herself got them today. I don’t remember the last time I’ve had them to be honest. When I speak to her, I’ll let you know.

    Edit - “evergreen”

    Is this Evergreen in Galway? They don't seem to have locations in Dublin


  • Registered Users Posts: 549 ✭✭✭BurnsCarpenter


    Can't find them in Cork anywhere either. No sign of them when searching online shopping for Tesco and Super Valu. Should have stocked up :(

    I usually just wack a can of chickpeas and guava beans in the food processor, make them into patties and they do be just as good and a million times cheaper

    I don't think that will give the beefy/meaty taste some are looking for :)

    Burgers were never something I really ate so not something I've been trying to replicate but have found a few recipes making them with beans so might give one like yours a try.

    I was cooking for a vegetarian a while ago and heard they were good and I actually got them in my local Supervalu so it's worth trying there.
    Gotta say they are really lovely alright, I was well impressed.
    I know you didn't ask about this but Linda McCartney ones are easier got if you're stuck, they're on sale everywhere or buy the veggie mince and then add your own onions and seasoning/spices and form the burgers yourself if you find hers a bit bland, could be worth a shot.

    Her burgers are really great and much cheaper, very "meaty".

    Especially the “pulled pork” burger. Half the price.

    Not suitable for Vegans however last time I checked, not vegan myself but the missus is.

    The Denny burgers aren't bad, but not as nice as the beyond.

    Vivera range also gone from Tesco.

    There are two types, one has mozzarella in the middle and that is vegetarian, the other is a regular burger and that is vegan (says vegetarian on it though). 2 for €2.29 or something like that.

    Vivera were very popular at Tesco, always sold out but they still removed them, don't know what was up with that.

    The vegetarian 1/4 pounder & pulled pork 1/4 pounder are “vegan approved”

    Ah O.K., they only ever have the mozzarella ones in our nearest supervalu and tesco.

    Did try the pulled pork but personally wasn't a fan, but that's the same with actual pulled pork.

    As for Vivera, not sure if it's just in the republic that they stopped selling their range in or if they also stopped in the north, but they are still selling the range in the rest of the U.K.

    Thanks, do like the sausage rolls and sfc alternatives, but have seen none of the other range locally.

    If you have an evergreen near you they might have them?

    Aren't they only in Galway or am I thinking of a different crowd?

    Sorry, just looked it up there you’re right. I would of thought they were nationwide.

    You can travel wherever you want today, sure drive to Galway. :)

    I find anything from Linda McCartney gives me incredible gas for at least 24h afterwards.

    Thanks to the poster above with the chickpea pattie recipe, they sound quality.

    No problem, they are good and it's a pity that they aren't stores outside Galway.

    Hi Xlaxeo. Maybe SuperValu?

    The BB are excellent. Also v. high in protein. :-)
