"Coming to a branch near you soon but please please call it something else... I'm excited for this, I've been vegan 5 years and I'm loving how many options there are now. They can call it whatever they like, there's no problem with that." I am not on a vegan hunt. I eat MacDonolds occasionally but don't like their fries. I usually have a big Mac on its own. I order a Big Mac and here is how it always goes. "Can I have a Big Mac on its own please?" "Certainly Sir, would you like that as a meal? " I then think (did I ask for a fucking meal you fucking cretin?) I know it's their staff training. I say, "No thank you, a Big Mac on its own please" Can you imagine how I would feel in Gregg's. Can I have a steak bake please? Is that a vegan steak bake or a meat steak bake sir ? Why are rolling on the floor crying Sir ? | |||

"I wish they would cater for people with allergies! My daughter in law is allergic to gluten, yet finding stuff she can eat in food places is a nightmare because even if they offer a gluten free range, they cannot guarantee it has been prepped without care for cross contamination..."

"It is amazing the range now!! I mean i remember when i first went vegan 8 years ago there was next to no options and now there are so many it is hard to work out what you want for dinner. Some restaurants still have not worked out what vegan means. I mean i was once served a plate of peas with butter on top. This was a meal that they haf two weeks to plan. " I've had some utterly inedible food on nights out even when the restaurant has been given warning. Luckily things have improved over the last couple of years. | |||

"I would have thought trading laws would prohibit it being called "steak". Steak, is by dictionary definition, a cut of meat. If there's no meat in it, isn't that something for trading standards? " I normally find it irritating when people get all up in arms about this sort of thing. But to be honest, that is what steak means, so yes you have a point. Different argument when talking about sausages or burgers though. | |||
