Boca's All American Classic burger

More info: Boca
 

It's no secret that I don't like Boca burgers, but I do like the fact that they've released an entire line of organic products. If I'm forced to eat mediocre alt-burgers, at least let them be organic. And so it is with a resigned sigh that I report that the ridiculously-named All American Classic Burger is no different.

Not to get off topic, but what kind of a name is "All American Classic Burger" anyway? Does Boca have an "All Australian" burger? And if they do, can it be also classified as "classic?" Who knows - maybe they even have an "All Irish Postmodern Burger." Ok, enough ranting - back to the burger.

The AACB has the standard fake grilled smokey flavor that is common among alt-burgers, but the patty does differ slightly in taste and texture. The taste and texture hint of a bean paste, despite not having any legumes as ingredients. It wasn't necessarily a bad thing, but nor did it offer any benefit.

Overall, I was happy to know I was eating organic, but the taste would keep me from rushing out to buy more of these ultra-patriotic alt-burgers.

I'm sure the auxiliary "All American" prefix is an attempt to pierce the meat-eatin' redneck market.
