Two years after launching the Impossible Whopper, Burger King is testing out Impossible nuggets.
Starting on October 11, Burger King restaurants in Des Moines, Iowa, Boston, Massachusetts and Miami, Florida will serve eight-piece plant-based nuggets made by Impossible Foods for a limited time. While Burger King is following other fast-food companies in testing out a plant-based chicken option, the test runs makes Burger King the first major fast food chain restaurant to do so using Impossible's product. Impossible launched its nuggets in grocery stores, smaller chains and independent restaurants this summer.
The product will be prepared in oil used for meat and cheese products, Burger King noted, so they may not be suitable for strict vegans.

The debris arrives in the rockets’ wake: melted plastics, aluminum and pieces of blue adhesive. It all ends up stranded on the sands of Bagdad beach in northern Tamaulipas, Mexico, home to an endangered species of sea turtle. Just across the border lies Starbase, SpaceX’s launchpad and company town in what once was called Boca Chica, Texas.
