# Global Vegetarian Burgers Dr. Praeger's Veggie Burger Patties Capture Diverse Flavors By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2016-03-11 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veggie-burger-patties References: [drpraegers](http://drpraegers.com/our-food/) Veggie burger patties often come in two types: ones that mimic the taste and texture of real meat and others that are bean-based. In order to add a bit more diversity to this category, Dr. Praeger's sells a range of globally inspired vegetarian burgers, including ones that take influence from America, Italy, India and China. Some of the most unexpected vegetarian-friendly burger flavors include the Bibimbabp Veggie Burger, which is made with seven vegetables and a spicy Gochujang sauce that emulates the traditional Korean dish. Similarly, the Bombay Veggie Burger includes a flavorful blend of plant-based ingredients that are enhanced with [classic curry spices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tikka-patties). These vegetarian burgers are also [certified vegan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grilld-and-beyond-meat), non-GMO and some are offered in gluten-free varieties. The newest veggie burger patties made their debut at this year's Natural Products Expo West, alongside a few other new products from Dr. Praeger's. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 64% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Globally Inspired Vegetarian Burgers:** Creating vegetarian burger patties that draw flavors and influences from diverse cuisines. - **Unexpected and Exotic Burger Flavors:** Introducing vegetarian burger patties with unique flavors like Bibimbabp and Bombay. - **Vegan, Non-gmo, and Gluten-free Options:** Meeting the demand for vegetarian burger patties that are certified vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free. ### Where This Applies - **Food and Beverage:** Developing vegetarian burger patties that cater to diverse consumer preferences and dietary restrictions. - **Plant-based Protein:** Creating innovative plant-based protein products like globally inspired vegetarian burgers. - **Natural and Organic Products:** Expanding the range of natural and organic vegetarian burger options to meet the growing demand. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Restaurant-Style Frozen Plant-Based Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-praegers-grillhouse-burger.md) - [Globally Inspired Plant-Based Patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taste-of-the-world-burgers.md) - [Crunchy Veggie Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crunchy-veggie-burgers.md) - [Textural Veggie-Rich Burger Patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/actual-veggies-burgers.md) - [Chickpea Masala Veggie Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chickpea-masala-veggie-burger.md) - [Sea-Veggie Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sea-veggie-burgers.md) - [Vegetarian Peppercorn Oil Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bingz-healthy-veggie.md) - [Microwavable Vegan Burger Patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-burger-patty.md) - [Veggie-Forward Sliders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slider-patties.md)
