The burger patties will be launching at nearly 2,000 Kroger locations across the nation and will include two patties that feature four ounces each. The product will be available ash all of the Kroger-affiliated grocery stores and will be in the fresh meat section for shoppers to purchase at a price point of $6.99 each.

The preformed Impossible Burger Patties can also be ordered at Kroger.com for delivery and curbside pickup, and will be launching at additional retail locations in the US in the coming weeks.
