Tim Hortons has launched two new veggie sandwiches featuring the vegan Beyond Burger patty in its almost 4,000 stores nationwide.
The sandwich features the patty alongside processed cheese, fresh tomato slices, shredded lettuce, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. A BBQ version subs BBQ sauce for the ketchup.
According to VegNews, the burgers can be veganized by ditching the cheese and mayo, and requesting Tim Hortons’ vegan biscuit instead of the standard bun.
