It's technically not vegan or vegetarian though...🤔
This time Burger King has announced they are introducing a plant-based Rebel Whopper, but although it doesn’t contain any animal products, it’s not actually classed as vegan or even vegetarian because of the way it is cooked.
The burger will be available today and tomorrow for anyone with the restaurant’s app and then will be rolled out nationwide from 8 January. The patty was made and developed for Burger King by the Vegetarian Butcher and is made from sustainably-sourced soy.But it is important to note that the burger is cooked on the same broiler as the meat and that is the reason it is not classed as vegan or vegetarian.
