Starbucks joins fast food chains such as McDonald's, Burger King, and Dunkin' Donuts in offering plant-based breakfast sandwiches
Starbucks announced it will become the latest food chain to introduce a plant-based breakfast patty for its customers in the U.S. and Canada.
During an earnings call on Tuesday, the coffee brand Starbucks' chief operating officer Rosalind Brewer told participants that the company would introduce additional plant-based options to its menu. Starbucks' aim is to become more environmentally friendly and declined to comment on who would supply the new plant-based patty,. Other companies such as Denny's and Dunkin' Donuts have used Beyond Meat's plant-based"meat" for their food.
Starbucks has previously released plant-based menu items though these have been discontinued. Items such as vegan cookies, protein bowls and an Iced Vanilla Bean Coconutmilk Latte have made it onto menu boards in the U.S., a spokesperson for Animal Outlook said plant-based meals will be put"front and center for Starbucks' 75 million monthly US customers–and millions more in Canada".
The Grand Turk Starbucks. The company has announced it will add a plant based patty to its breakfast menu.As stated in Animal Outlook's online petition, the Starbuck's menu fell short in its plant-based food offerings, which were previously limited to oatmeal and a few pre-packaged fruit-based snacks.
"By expanding its food menu to include hearty meat-, egg-, and dairy-free options such as vegan muffins or a protein-packed breakfast sandwich, Starbucks would give existing customers more choices while also reaching out to a new customer base," the petition says."This simple change will allow so many more customers to add a breakfast item with their coffee, stay for lunch, enjoy a pastry, or grab some food to go.
