The 'Meet Beat' burger box designed by Isabel Leal Bergstrand and Lina Forsgren poses a creative way to spread the word about [vegetarian eating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/actual-veggies-burgers).

In developing a campaign to promote the beet root and encourage people to reduce their meat consumption, the two designers put together an information kit and a [beet burger box](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blank-happy-meal) that could be given out at [food trucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burger-king-uk-campaign). As well as having the first half of the name, Meet Beet, sound a lot like "meat," the color choices for branding also mimics the blood red of beets, or raw meat. The boxes also feature a vibrant red and white patter made up of small red beans that has a resemblance to ground meat, making the idea of eating a beet burger seem not so foreign after all.
