🌍 Origin & History
The veggie burger has come a long way from the dry, crumbly patties of the 1990s. Modern veggie burgers blend mushrooms, beans, and grains for real texture and umami. Hash versions take it a step further, incorporating the veggies directly into the patty for a breakfast-for-dinner twist that naturally avoids added sugars.
