So who's tried a Greggs vegan sausage roll/steak bake?

[editor]

They'd long sold out where I looked, but the word is that they're very tasty indeed - despite some total meat-guzzling buffoons on Twitter announcing that they're going to boycott Greggs because they now stock a vegan product

 

[Voley]

I was wondering if they'd actually paid Piers Morgan to spout his predictable twaddle about this. Can't put a price on publicity like that.

I don't actually fancy one, not a vegan or a Greggs fan but I'd buy one if I could choke that cunt Morgan on it.

What's in it?

He's such a fucking pointless waste of oxygen.

Well, no eyes, lips, arseholes and other random bits of animal matter.

Whatever shit he comes out with someone always seems to be paying him for it.

He always strikes me as desperately unhappy and desperate for attention.

I'm guessing the puff pastry is made with coconut butter or similar instead of butter and the filling some sort of sausage mix, they're are loads around. It's still pretty calorific but I don't think anyone is going to buy it thinking its one of their 5 a day. I'll give it a try for sure.

had a bite of ms kaks sausage roll ( ) - pretty tasty - bit too herby for me - but definitely not bland.

Professional pantomime villain. Does very nicely out of it I'd imagine.

Nothing that good goes into sausage rolls. MRM and crushed skull ftw.

It's quorn sausage and the pastry will just be like pretty much all other mass produced pastry which has vegetable fat rather than butter. Their normal sausage rolls wont have butter either like.

I haven't got round to trying one yet but do want to! A friend reported that they are tasty but not as big as the normal ones.

I'd give one a go. I sometimes get a veggie hot dog from Ikea and I prefer them to the meat ones.

Very clever marketing from Greggs here

Would you be happy if you were that?

They both allegedly use (or have used) the same PR company

I might try one next time I’m there. They can’t be any worse than the meat ones

 

[Sprocket.]

I would gladly knock Piers Morgan’s teeth out one at a time for a Greggs vegan sausage roll.
In fact I’d do it for nothing!

 

[BoxRoom]

Had two yesterday, will certainly be having more. And I'm not a veggie either, it's great there is stuff like this happening now, can eat less meat and reduce the impact a tiny amount. Moar choice FTW!

 

[Poi E]

Yeah good job Greggs. They do a very nice chicken salad roll not loaded with mayo or butter like every other bloody sandwich.

 

[PursuedByBears]

They didn't have them at the university branch today so I'll try again on Monday. First time I've been to Gregg's for years!

I couldn't imagine a greater horror than Piers Morgan choking to death on my sausage.

[ddraig]

They've been selling out everywhere
Not that I can bloody have one, meh

 

[Artaxerxes]

I'd only eat one in dire, unexpected circumstances where all other options have failed me*. So not so far but it's only been a couple of days.


*Much like a meat Gregg's sausage roll.

eyes, lips, arseholes

Band name!

Yeah, this.

I couldn't imagine the circumstances under which anyone would feel the desire to go to IKEA on a regular enough basis to be able to make such a statement

I live within walking distance, LOL. I sometimes pop in on my way home from work on a quiet weekday evening.
