Vegan Starbucks
The global coffee chain has been introducing new menu items featuring plant-based meat from Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods in select markets across the world including Canada, New Zealand, and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
The move follows Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson releasing a sustainability plan at the beginning of the year, which outlined the company’s mission to add more plant-based options to reduce its carbon footprint and become a ‘resource positive company’.
In June, it added a vegetarian Impossible Breakfast Sandwich to most outlets in the US along with rolling out its first vegan cold foam, made with almond milk.
The chain also revealed plants of making oat milk available in all US stores by Spring 2021 after a successful trial in 1,300 outlets at the beginning of the year in several states.
