I don't think the ingredients sound so bad. It's mostly soy and oil plus binders:

I have a friend who eats a "plant-based diet" and she loves Impossible products. She can go out to a restaurant even here in our small town and have a burger. She likes their sausage too. Having been out to lunch with her, and watch her try to avoid even normal things on salads that servers often forget to leave off like cheese, or having a dismal sandwich of mushrooms and condiments, I think these products are excellent for people who want to eat like this. I've never tried them because I avoid soy, but she eats stuff like tofu all the time. To each their own.
I respect Bill Gates for all he's doing in terms of world health. His perspective is very different from his work in poorer countries from that of the average person or even our policymakers. I don't think we have to worry about anyone forcing us to eat "synthetic beef" any time soon.
