Burger King has released a new plant-based version of its iconic Whopper burger. And, as typically in January most people are trying to eat healthier (after the indulgences during Christmas) we decided to give it a go.
Emily Sleight, a writer for the Liverpool Echo, has made a New Year's resolution to eat less meat, so it was a no brainer she give the vegan burger a go. It is part of the chain's new menu, which also sees the launch of the Vegan Royale Bakon King, made with crispy vegan Bakon and vegan Cheeeze.
But Emily had her sights set on the 'Plant-Based Bakon King'. As a disclaimer, the Plant-Based Bakon King is cooked on the same broiler as the original meat Whopper "to deliver the same unique flame-grilled taste", so it can't actually be classed as vegan, which is a real shame.
