Spare Burger

Plant-forward
Climate-friendly
Upcycled certified

Save plants. Eat burgers.

This is a burger-lover’s burger. Umami without the prep (or the foraging), and plant-forward without the comprise; just 100% real food, because when you want a burger, nothing beats the real thing. We made a juicy, delicious blend of 70% responsibly-raised beef and 30% surplus vegetables. Upcycling whole ingredients does more than make this a climate-friendly burger, it packs the serious flavor to improve upon an all-American classic. It's simply a better blended burger - for chefs, for you, and for the planet. It’s not impossible.

The meat of it

Nearly 50 billion burgers are consumed in the US every year. That’s not just a lot of beef, water, and carbon - it’s a lot of meat eating too. So before we suggest any big lifestyle changes, let’s talk numbers. If we replaced just 30% of those same 50 billion burgers with Spare Starter®, it would save 15 billion beef burgers, minimize both the demand and footprint of animal protein on the environment, and keep 5.4 billion pounds of edible surplus in the food system. And when you add humane, sustainable farming into the mix, the meat of it becomes encouraging.

Whether I cook this burger rare, medium or well, it’s one of the juiciest burgers I’ve ever tasted.
