Vegan at Restaurants Part 2: Burger King

 Vegan at Restaurants Part 2: Burger King

By: Megan

  In this series, I will be discussing vegan options at popular restaurants and will be trying them and giving my thoughts on them. Everyone always downs Burger King saying they always get the orders wrong or mess them up. Coming from a small town and a not-so-fancy family, Burger King has always been one of my favorite fast-food restaurants. They are most known for the Whopper which is a quarter-pound beef patty with a sesame-seed bun and topped with lettuce, onions, and tomato. Personally, I was more of a plain cheeseburger gal, but Burger King was still my kind of place. Since going vegan, I have realized that Burger King has a lot of vegan options that I believe should be discussed. 

1. French Toast Sticks

The french toast sticks at Burger King are so good. I mean they are just regular french toast sticks, but usually, french toast sticks are not vegan, so I haven't had them in a while. These sticks are accidentally vegan, so they were not meant to be vegan it just kinda happened. They come in two different sizes: 3 sticks or 5 sticks. They come with maple syrup which is also vegan. The 3 piece sticks are $1 and the 5 piece sticks are $1.99. These are very cheap for a quick vegan breakfast.

2. Hashbrowns

These hashbrowns are basically tater tots. They are very greasy which adds to the fast-food experience. They are good on their own or with ketchup. I also dipped them in the maple syrup because I am a madman and yes they are delicious. They come in 3 different sizes: small, medium, and large. The small is $1, the medium is $1.69, and the large is $1.89. I suggest the large because all of the other sizes are simply not enough.

3. Impossible Whopper

The Impossible Whopper is not automatically vegan. It has cheese and mayo on it which need to be taken off. It also has lettuce, onions, tomato, and pickles. I usually like to get the burger plain and put ketchup on it because I am an actual 2-year-old. To me, the burger tastes like meat, but to everyone who eats meat in one bite, they can tell it is not. The burger itself is $5.67, but there are various combos that range in prices that go up to about $9. It is a little pricey, but I think it is worth it and a good option. 

Burger Kings are pretty much everywhere, so these options are very accessible on road trips or vacations. I love all of these options and will continue to order them.

Vegan Snacks Part 3: Cookies

Vegan Snacks Part 3: Cookies By: Megan   Cookies are one of my favorite snacks. I definitely have a sweet tooth and love all types of cookies. There are tons of vegan brands of cookies.  1. Oreos Oreos were probably the only reason I thought I could make it as a vegan, to begin with. My motto at the time was "I could survive on Oreos". I am not sure why I thought that was possible, but hey I am here and am still vegan, so something must have worked. The really cool thing about Oreos is every single flavor is accidentally vegan. Even the new Gluten-Free Oreos are vegan, which is an exciting new addition to the growing number of Oreos. 2. Voortman Wafer Cookies I know I am a bit of an old lady for this, but I think wafer cookies are the bomb. There's just something about them that I love. The brand Voortman is the only brand I have come across that has vegan wafer cookies. All of the wafer cookies from this brand that I have seen were vegan including flavors such as Chocola

My Deal With Clearance

My Deal With Clearance By: Megan            Anyone who knows me well knows that I love the clearance section. It does not matter which store I am or if I have ever been there I will find the clearance section. Sometimes I go and there are so many different products and sometimes I go and it is completely empty. However, it does not matter if I have not found anything in clearance all day, I have to go to the section in every single store. I never really started going to the clearance section until I went vegan. I always thought it was just a bunch of expired food that could not be salvaged. After going vegan, the food I wanted to eat got to be very expensive. To get as much food as possible, I started shopping for the sales. Then, I discovered clearance tags. A lot of products such as yogurts, mock meats, and veggies would be on clearance often. I learned what was most often marked down and where I needed to look in the stores on quick trips. Usually, if I find foods I like that are ma

Vegan at Restaurants Part 1: IHOP

   Vegan at Restaurants Part 1: IHOP By: Megan     In this series, I will be discussing vegan options at popular restaurants and will be trying them and giving my thoughts on them. I have always loved IHOP. I was randomly wanting IHOP and told my friend we had to go to IHOP; it was non-negotiable really. IHOP really is not the best place for vegan options. They do not have any vegan waffles or pancakes which is a bummer. I ended up getting a serving of Hashbrowns, potato pancakes, and sourdough toast. I would not say this was the most filling meal, but with not a lot of vegan options in the area, it was a nice change. This meal was very carb-filled and I could have easily gotten a fruit cup instead of one of the potato options, but who doesn't love a whole plate of potatoes?      I will start off with the hashbrowns. They were very good. I mean they are hashbrowns, so they are self-explanatory. Luckily, their hashbrowns are naturally vegan, so I did not have to do any specification
