Hero Burgers Not Vegan
2007 April 23
Update
A while back I posted an entry about Hero Burgers and their Soul Burger, which they advertise as being 100% vegan. It has recently come to my attention that these burgers aren’t 100% vegan. Thanks to a passer-by on my blog named Matt Rennick, I have discovered that the buns used for Hero Burgers’ Soul Burger contain egg, which is problematic for vegans. If you’re vegetarian, this may not be an issue. You can read more about Matt’s discovery by clicking here.
However, if you’re a vegan then you may want to contact the head office as to why they are advertising it is vegan, when it really isn’t. And if you’ve eaten there before or planned to eat there in the near future, just be aware that the burger isn’t 100% vegan.
They used to use their egg buns in the begginning, but now they use ciabbata buns instead, so yes its vegan.
Strict UK veggies ARE worried about eggs. If the product is mass produced, it is vitually bound to be battery egg. No it’s a no no for me too.
