About the Brand

Fantastic Foods is one of the nation's leading natural foods companies, offering delicious and innovative vegetarian food choices to consumers across the country for more than 25 years. Widely recognized for vegetarian, all-natural, and convenient meal solutions, Fantastic Foods produces more than 90 products.

Fantastic Foods was founded in 1975 by Jim and Joan Rosen, starting as a small, vegetarian restaurant in Mill Valley, California. Jim Rosen, with a degree in philosophy and Montessori teaching experience, wanted to achieve two goals: provide healthy, vegetarian food while creating a socially conscious business. He aimed for quality and flavor, and soon the Rosens began selling their healthy and nourishing vegetarian specialties to stores and distributors with increasing success. Rosen later sold the restaurant and devoted himself to manufacturing the prepackaged soups and mixes that make up today's Fantastic Foods' family of products.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tastes great and great for you!, August 27, 2008

This review is from: Fantastic World Foods Nature's Burger, 10-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12) (Grocery)

First off let me say that I have been eating vegetarian and soy made meals, burgers, and other concoctions for nearly half my life, from the really great tasting to the not so great tasting. So when I stumbled on this burger mix in my local bulk foods section I jumped on the chance to taste this stuff and am VERY happy I did.

Making the burgers is very easy, just add the same amount of warm/hot water to burger mix, stir well, let sit for a while, then form into a patty and cook. Very simple and easy to make. What I like to do is make a bunch of the mix ahead and stick it in the fridge so you can enjoy one almost anytime you want.

Now these burgers aren't meant to taste like a beef burger, I would say they are an alternative to the "real thing". They are well seasoned and have a great hearty texture to them. Throw them on a bun with some fixings and you have yourself a very health lunch, snack, or dinner.

So in addition to my regular veggie burgers that I buy, this mix has become a staple in my health lifestyle and would recommend this to anyone looking for an alternative to meat or even some of those really untasty soy burgers that are out there (there are a few, I know because I ate them for years).

PROS:
Easy to make.
Doesn't taste like beef or any of the frozen soy burgers out there, so if you don't like beef or any of those soy burgers give this stuff a try!
Can be made ahead of time and stuck in the fridge.
Very healthy, low sodium, yet tastes very well seasoned.
Other things can be added to the mix.
The mix can be added to regular hamburger to create really tasty meatloaf.

CONS:
If not mixed with the correct amount of water patties tend to become extremely crumbly and fall apart.

We like this because it is simple to make, use it at home and camping. Low calorie and fat, decent fiber and protein. Cant find it locally, so we order from Amazon.

It can get dry and stick to your hands when forming the patties- oiling your hands with olive oil when forming the patties makes it much easier. We also add a little oil to the mix. Fry slowly in a little olive oil in skillet or on an electric griddle type grill. Add more oil to mix if the patties end up too dry.

This product is a great value as well as good for you. It has a falafal type texture that is easy to prepare and cook. We make our Fantastic Burger mix into small patties and freeze them. Its then easy to take what we need for each meal from the freezer. You can microwave them on high for about a minute each to get a firm texture. We're going to try baking them as well as making a "meat" loaf with the mix. We really like this product.
