Dr. Praeger’s are always crazy oily. Engine 2 follow code to a whole food standard but they taste awful. Hillary's are probably the best alternative in that list.

I bought a bunch of burgers and made a spreadsheet to graph their basic nutrition stats against each other:
The HuffPo article feels more like a fluff ad piece than a real discussion or informative piece. But my data above is just data.
For the most part, it doesn't matter compared to what you top it with, or what kind of bread you use.

I bought some vegan veggie burgers from my local Indian grocery store a few times and it was legit 11/10. I can't find anything even close as good at American stores.

Surely "least unhealthy"

does it really matter how healthy they are?

Thank you! Burgers aren't health food. There's plenty of vegan junk food out there, and people shouldn't expect it to be healthy just because it's not made from animals.

@lucas @JoYo I mean, I've made badass beet burgers that were very health conscience. However, of course, we can make trash burgers, too.

they could be the healthiest thing ever but no one is eating raw patties.
fry it in some oil, fry the buns crispy, and throw a square of potato starch and oil on it for good measure.
smother in tomato sugar and it's a neat treat.

If I wanted a healthy veggie burger I'd make it from scratch - burgers are junk food, stop trying to make me eat healthy!
