A regional dad has today tried a Future Burger meatless patty, though it did admittedly take a bit of convincing from his daughter.
As a proud carnivore, Frank Hill [56] was seen shovelling handfuls of dead animals into his gob at least twice a day and refusing to accept any dinner that didn’t have at least one kind of meat on it – stating that it ‘just wasn’t substantial.’
Having once picked all the bits of chicken out of a caesar salad, Frank was notoriously quite the tough customer and arguably even pickier than his three-year-old grandson, seeing as at least Liam enjoyed the odd bit of fruit.
But after much nagging, Frank has today begrudgingly accepted a burger made with a plant-based meat patty, whinging as much as humanly possible while he does so.
“Only because I’m starving”, says Frank, as he gingerly reaches out for the plate, “and to shut you up.”
However, after taking one bite, Frank is seen cocking his head as though he’s lost in thought, which prompts his daughter to ask what he thinks.
A question he seems to not hear as he takes another bite.
“Dad, what do you think!”
“DAD!”
Polishing it off, Frank mutters something about it ‘being fine’ and vaguely asks where you find these Future Farm things at Coles, before dutifully changing the subject to the footy.
More to come.
