No legit serious vegan would step foot inside Burger King. The 'Impossible Burger' isn't even vegan to start with! https://www.peta.org/blog/why-it-is-impossible-for-peta-to-g...
This talks about testing on animals, which is not condoned in ethical veganism, but superficially it is vegan.

#12As a vegan, this lawsuit is upsetting. We should not be punishing companies for offering vegan food! And any vegan that cares about cross-contamination (many of us don't) already knows to ask. I hope they toss this lawsuit out and quick!

As a vegetarian, I couldn’t agree more. All this does is make people think vegans are assholes. If you’re that concerned and strict about these things, don’t go to BK! I think it’s great that they offer a meat free alternative. As the saying goes “no good deed goes unpunished”.
It's simply cheap crappy "fast food". Neither herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, nor anything else should have to eat that. But they do take EBT!

Animal testing is not now, or has ever been, considered vegan. Veganism isn't a diet.
I do disagree with the vegan crowd, but they are at least moral and largely consistent in their own beliefs so fine by me as long as they stay the F* out of my life.
But lawyers and idiots like this really tick me off and I hope they have to pay court costs for this frivolous lawsuit and I hope BK does not pay them off one dime.

I'm not a vegan. I'm a proud carnivore. I've never considered what BK and McD serve to be "meat". So it is unsurprising that a vegetarian would not consider an impossible burger not "un-meat" either. It's simply cheap crappy "fast food". Neither herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, nor anything else should have to eat that. But they do take EBT!
