Dreaming of Veganuary? Or maybe you’re simple looking to change up your London dining routine and find some alternative eats in the new year? See if this ‘meat lover’s guide’ to vegan burgers helps you find what you’re taste buds seek.
I’m not against eating meat. I am becoming increasingly against eating too much of it or eating meat just to eat meat when there are healthier and tastier options. So … vegan burgers. Most make me say meh, but some – such as the ones listed below – have me mumbling oh yeah when I’m munching on them.
