Taste is highly contextual for these products. A badly cooked impossible burger is WAY better than a badly cooked meat burger imho. A meat burger that's cooked well is better than the same for an impossible burger (also imho).

So...they're getting pretty close.

Health-wise is highly debatable as well (I'd claim functional equivalence there, though there are people in both camps). Neither is good for you!

I disagree very strongly. Ruminants are a huge fraction of my ancestors’ diet (possibly a caloric majority) over evolutionary timescales, so it should come as no surprise that ruminants are not only better for me than extruded pea protein, but one of the best possible foods for me.
