I didn't know these were out on the market until I watched a documentary called Cowspiracy on Youtube a few weeks ago, and found out Burger King is selling a "plant-based meat" burger, the Impossible Burger (I don't watch TV and the Internet is my only source of news). So I went out and tried it a week ago and I couldn't tell it wasn't made from beef. I suspect it has more fiber than a regular burger, and it didn't taste as greasy, but it didn't taste like a typical "veggie burger".
