Subway Trials Vegan Double Chocolate Chip Cookie In U.K

Sandwich chain Subway is trialing a vegan* version of its chocolate chip cookie, 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.

It recently shared a picture of the vegan cookie, which has already debuted in select stores across the U.K. The new item retails at 59p each or three for £1.20. 

‘Sell-out success’

Earlier this year, Subway launched its vegan meatball marinara sub sandwich across the U.K.

The Meatless Meatball Marinara, which features plant-based meatballs, tomato sauce, and melted vegan cheese, was described as a ‘sell-out success’. 

It has recently gone on to win Best Vegan Sandwich at PETA’s 2020 Vegan Food Awards.
