Burger King introduces its latest plant-based sandwich called the Vegan Royale. It is a chicken sandwich that is said to be a variation of the restaurant’s famous chicken burger.
The Metro UK reported that this vegan addition to the Burger King menu was developed by The Vegetarian Butcher. The Vegan Royale debuted just a day ago and now available in BK stores across the U.K.
The Vegan Royale BK burger
The new Burger King Vegan Royale is made with plant-based chicken fillet and topped with iceberg lettuce, drizzled with vegan mayo, and finally enclosed in toasted sesame seed buns.
The fillet was said to have been cooked in a strict process to make sure that it is totally separated from meat, egg, and dairy products when being prepared.
This is an addition to Burger King’s chicken sandwich menu, and for customers who prefer beef, they also have a vegan option. BK also previously introduced its plant-based flame-grilled Whopper for diners who want “meatless” burgers.
Then again, it was noted that while this Whopper is an animal-free burger, it is not vegan-certified due to the way it was cooked, which is alongside meat products. Still, this is a good option for those who already gave up the meats and love plant-based food now.
“At Burger King UK we’re all about delivering great-tasting food for our customers, so we’ve purposefully taken our time with the Vegan Royale to make sure it’s the best on the market,” BK UK’s marketing director, Soco Nunez, said in a statement. “In fact, we would go as far as to say it’s an identical taste experience to the original Chicken Royale.”
Vegan Society-certified sandwich menu
It was mentioned on Vegan Life that Burger King UK’s Vegan Royale has earned a certification from the Vegan Society, which means that this menu is truly 100% plant-based. The fast-food chain’s french fries were also certified by the group, so customers can now buy a complete vegan meal - with burger and fries - for just £6.79 while the a la carte order of Vegan Royale cost £4.79.
“We’re delighted to be working closely with Burger King,” the Vegan Society’s marketing manager, Ericka Durgahee, said. “It’s fantastic to see that not only are they expanding their range to cater to vegan customers, but are going above and beyond by offering them delicious options that have been certified by the highly-trusted and sought-after Vegan Trademark.”
Finally, the introduction of vegan food items in the Burger King menu is said to be part of the company’s plan to have 50% of its menu plant-based by the year 2031.
