Kosher Gardenburgers

I noticed that there are varieties of Gardenbuger that are now under the kosher supervision of OK Labs (OK D).

    Too bad Boca Burgers hasn't come around. I hear they are pretty good.

      Saw these at fairway too. I bought the flame grilled burgers and was not impressed. I actually threw them out. I will stick with Morningstar Farms.

        Morningstar Farms' Chipotle Black Bean burger is the best alternative burger I've found. It's good because it's not trying to be a meat substitute. Fantastic flavor.

          I love those burgers! used to eat them every day for lunch. I like them with a sweet salsa.

            Easily the best "fake" burger out there.

              I would say it's definitely one of the best. I also like the Dr Praeger's veggie burgers- but they're not really a 'fake meat' burger.

                Praeger's are very light on seasoning. Okay for some people, but I generally have to add a lot to them.

                  i don't eat them plain. usually I add mustard and veggies to a sandwich with a Praeger's burger.

                  How do you keep them from crumbling? Every time I tried them they went to pieces the second I touched them.

                    I usually defrost for 30 seconds in the microwave before cooking them on foil in the toaster. I cook until almost burnt.. much longer than the cooking time on the box.

                      Praeger's buffallo chicken burgers are very good too.

            The Gardenburger flame grilled ones are bad but the traditional ones are pretty good--if you're looking for a grainy type veggie burger.

            I don't remember the specific varieties that I saw in Fairway.

              There are now notations on each Gardenburger product page as to its kosher status. I haven't found the hashgacha yet though.

              eg: http://www.gardenburger.com/product.a...
