Hard Rock Cafe is now offering the Moving Mountains burger, a completely meatless and plant-powered option that is said to bleed, sizzle, smell and taste just like real meat. The six-ounce Moving Mountains burger packs 25 grams of protein and will be served in a classic way with optional cheddar cheese, an onion ring, leaf lettuce and vine-ripened tomato on a toasted bun with fries on the side.
This new burger on the menu appeals to flexitarians, vegans, vegetarians and even those who eat meat and are looking for an option that can even "compete with beef."
The all-natural Moving Mountains burger replicates animal meat with beetroot juice and other innovative ingredients like oyster mushrooms, pea, wheat and soy proteins, coconut oil and oats.
