It's OK, so long as you don't start always opening a conversation by stating your vegan-ness. Up until that point, you're just plant-based
So who's tried a Greggs vegan sausage roll/steak bake?

Actually we are probably more water-based...

I hate 'these days'...
Greggs' vegan steak bake is around the corner... Greggs 'set to launch new vegan steak bake next week'

Also, if Greggs are doing a vegan steak bake, I'd quite like to see the vegan steak.

Is the consistency of vegan steaks tender like a fillet or chewy like a flavoursome rump?

I tried a Gregg's vegan sausage roll while out Christmas shopping the weekend before last.
Not saying I enjoyed it or anything but I ended up buying three. So nice to eat something like that without the fear of biting into a lump of fat or gristle.
The pastry is fantastic - light and crunchy - and the filling is tasty. And they're only a quid. I think I've found my new favourite savoury snack!

I tried a sausage roll out of interest and it was ok, I mean it was as nice as the 'sausage' one. What the fuck is a real sausage anyway?
I'm not vegetarian, but I often prefer veggie food over the meaty alternative, especially when it comes to fast food etc, as it's all shite really.

Just had two of the vegan steak bakes. Very nice they were too.
If I didn't know, I'd have assumed it was meat.

If only they could get alcohol-free beer to taste as convincingly close to the real thing.

For my next test I think I'll be getting one of each in the same bag and I'll get the dude in the shop to put them in the bag when I'm not looking.

The thing about the sausage roll was that the vegan one looked very different to the regular one, might be the case here too.

They do look different, I think I prefer it though, although much of much, having said that it costs a bit more and is a bit worse for you I think (cos they lob a fuckload of salt in for flavour)

Cheese and bean (and allegedly sausage but I think it's like willy wonkas golden ticket) slices are the best filth greggs sell though

Tried Punk AF, it comes closer than most others I tried but I couldn't drink it regularly. I've mostly been drinking soda water with lime instead nowadays. Much cheaper.

Right. Just had one.
The heat of the filling took the skin off the roof of my mouth. Nicely
Browned flaky pasty.Gloopy brown stuff with greyish lumps of Quorn in it. Nothing much to chew really. A light linger of onions on the palate.smells of generic meaty style gravy.
I however have no comparison or reference point as I don’t eat meat. Nor have I ever had a steak bake, even when I did. Is this how meat pastry actually tastes ? I am missing nothing special if this is the case.
The sausage roll is a far more accomplished salty vegan snack.

It definitely does. This has been tested out more than once.
