Fortunately, there are enough restaurants, various grocery stores, food carts, and Filipino crack seed shops in Puna, that nobody has to eat an Impossible Burger if they don’t want to. What’s the farthest distance you can go on this island without immediate access to food? 15, 20 miles? Saddle Road? And even there, now you can stop half way at the Mauna Kea Access Roadside Kitchen and Snack Crossing.

Gotta see this one. New, or a rerun of the "Mahalo Rewards" episode?

Tried it at Taste of Hilo. Flavor wasn't bad but it seemed kind of mushy. I didn't care for it.

If Burger King was the gold standard Impossible was trying to reach, I'll pass.

I'll wait for the soylent green - at least its manufacture consumes an overabundant, invasive commodity....

geochem,
Your suggestion addresses most if not all of the concerns mentioned by the Punaweb community:
* Land & resources - already used by the Soylent Green ingredients while alive anyway, afterward additional land and resources not required
* Environmental Impact - Could be produced with a local supply chain
* Not a good choice; salt content, heart health, carb content - Soylent Green could be formulated to address all those issues
* Kind of mushy - Chewy!
Problems solved, thanks geochem.
Bon Appetit!

It's probably what will happen anyway when the ships stop coming. Just need to develop some locally sourced seasonings and sides. Sea salt, pineapple glaze, guava smoked, mango chutney, ulu stuffing, etc.
