Chloe Bailey’s experience unfolded during a stay at a hotel, a seemingly ordinary day that would soon take an unsettling turn. Recounting the ordeal with raw honesty, the 25-year-old songstress explained, “So I called to get a Beyond Burger for sis and I like usual. Specified that it’s vegan, no butter on the bun, nothing like that.” Little did they know, this request for a vegan delight would lead to an unforeseen culinary mishap.
As Chloe emerged from her shower, ready to enjoy her meal, her sister Halle made an unsettling discovery. Chloe described the moment, saying, “So we get the burgers, I’m getting out of the shower… and she’s eating the burger and she’s like, ‘Are you sure this is Beyond?'”
The taste test that followed sent shockwaves through Chloe’s senses. The juice dripping from the burger hinted at a truth that her taste buds couldn’t ignore.
“I touched the patty and smelled it and was like, ‘Of course it’s Beyond, yeah.’ So I finish getting dressed, I take a bite and the juice dripping from the burger is not like a Beyond burger. I just knew it was not a fake burger,” she added.
Her culinary intuition was right on point, and the realization set in. “The one bite I took and I just knew. Immediately I said, ‘This doesn’t feel right.'”

Facing the reality of the situation, Chloe approached the hotel’s reception for clarity, seeking confirmation that a vegan Beyond Burger had indeed been delivered to her room. What she learned was a far cry from her expectations. “He said, ‘No, they’re brand burgers.’ I said, ‘Brand burgers? I said Beyond burgers.’ I don’t even know what a brand burger is,” Chloe recounted, her bewilderment evident in her retelling.
The emotional rollercoaster that ensued was both relatable and endearing. Chloe’s tearful distress was met with Halle’s laughter, encapsulating the essence of sisterly camaraderie. Chloe described the scene, sharing, “I gobbled down a whole can of Sprite. Halle’s laughing at me because I’m crying. This is right before the concert yesterday. I’m crying, Halle’s just laughing so hard at me because I’m freaking out.” The situation became a blend of genuine concern and lighthearted moments, a testament to their unbreakable bond.
