Better Signature Burger is a new item at NBB. Features a plant-based patty. Toppings otherwise standard.

In retrospect, I can see that I was duped into ordering it. On the ordering kiosk, it's the first thing at the top of the screen. The name is clearly intended not to reveal the burger's plant-based nature (see for comparison 12.050 Plant Whopper), suggesting instead a premium version of their basic NBB Signature Burger. An additional click on a small "ingredients" icon in the corner reveals the fine print. What a scam.

Initially, I wasn't paying attention to the patty, distracted by the sloppy cheese.

Meh. At first bite, I noticed that the "meat" was oddly dry and crumbly. Taking a closer look, I realized that the patty was clearly not meat. I finished the burger, which wasn't terrible per se, just thoroughly joyless.
