Starbucks UK To Launch Beyond Meat Breakfast Sandwich Featuring Tofu Scramble, Says Report

Coffee giant Starbucks is launching a Beyond Meat breakfast sandwich featuring tofu scramble, according to Vegan Food UK. 

Vegan Food UK is an online organization sharing vegan food news, reviews, vlogs, and more. It operates across multiple social media platforms, with a Facebook group, Facebook page, YouTube channel, and Instagram account.

Vegan offerings

It says the chain will expand its vegan offerings in time for Veganuary 2021, welcoming a ‘Cheese’ & Marmite Mini Ciabatta, Chick’n & BBQ Bean Hot Wrap, and a Sweetcorn Fritter Wrap. 

Its Beyond Meat Breakfast Sandwich features a plant-based patty, with Tomato Relish, Tofu Scramble and vegan Cheese, served in a Pretzel Roll

Further details of the launch are yet to be announced. 

Planet Positive Future

Earlier this month, Starbucks launched oat milk across the US following a ‘successful’ trial. 

The non-dairy milk, which was tested in 1,300 outlets at the beginning of the year in several states, will be available in all US stores by Spring 2021.

The move is part of the company’s Pathway to a Planet Positive Future initiative, which seeks to slash carbon emissions, water, and waste by 50 percent in the next decade. 

“Our Planet Positive initiatives have a central role in our long-term business strategy, and directly address what our customers are asking for,” said Kevin Johnson, Starbucks chief executive officer. 

“We are moving toward a more circular economy, and we are doing so in a very intentional, transparent, and accountable way.”
