Who is going to be more excited than vegans?

Nowadays, vegetarians have cheered as many restaurants add plant-based protein to their varieties.

But when Burger King launched its no meat Impossible Whopper, especially classified as vegan food last Thursday, some plant-based eating individuals are not sure about it.

The issue started for about a week ago when Chris Finazzo, the chain's U.S. head, told Bloomberg that the said product would be cooked on the same broilers where chicken and beef are prepared. Vegan lifestyle is not only about the ingredients contained in the food but also how it is prepared.

Vegans and vegetarians do not want their food to come into direct contact with meat during the cooking process.

One representative for Burger King said that the food chain has not changed the process of cooking the newest variant.

The customers can request their Impossible Whopper to be cooked on a different broiler than the meat. But vegans and vegetarians are unaware of this option making them unsure if they still want to try the product.

But it is still given that vegans still go to coffee shops, restaurants and grocery stores that serve non-vegan items.

Those who refrain from eating meat for religious causes may monitor more strict rules when it comes to cross-contact with meat.

Well, the company's arch rival, McDonald's offers a vegetarian-friendly burger. So in order to keep up in the competition, cooking the Impossible Foods' burgers, beef patties and chicken on the same broiler makes it more efficient for Burger King to give its customers the Impossible Whopper.

At the end, this may not be the best option for vegans and vegetarians but for omnivores looking for ways to cut down their meat consumption, this could be the best way to move forward.

Here are three science-based reasons why people go vegan:

1. A vegan diet gives more nutrients

Switching from a typical Western diet to a vegan diet will make you eat whole grains, fruits, vegetables, beans, peas, seeds, and nuts.

Cutting meat will force you to rely all of your nutritional needs on plant-based food. This is very healthy in a way that vitamins and nutrients can be absorbed directly from the food you consume.

2. It will help you lose excess weight

Fast food chains that offer varieties of unhealthy meat products are one of the most common causes of obesity.

Many people are converting their diet to a plant-based diet hoping to shed those excess fats.

Researches prove that vegans tend to be thinner than the meat eating individuals. Plant-based diet can also help you lose weight faster than other diet that includes meat products.

3. Vegan diet lowers blood sugar and improve kidney health

This diet benefits people with type-2 diabetes and weakening kidney function. It is proven that going vegan improves blood sugar levels in diabetic patients than those diets from the America Diabetes Association (ADA), National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP), and American Heart Association.

Going vegan comes up with many reasons. Either because of health conditions, peer pressure or restrictions of religion, people should respect each other on what people eat as long as it's not immoral to the society.
