When you’re eating plant-based, finding a meal on the high street, train station or on your lunch break is not always easy. So we’ve come up with some of the best options out there for grab and go foods for vegans.
Subway
King of the lunches, Subway have so many variations for meat-eaters. But for vegans and vegetarians, the options have been lacklustre for a while. However, this year they introduced the Meatless Meatball Marinara. So now the options are meatballs, veggie delight or veggie pattie! Pair that with some crisps, soup, and a drink – a perfect on the go lunch. All of the toppings can be paired with wraps and salad too, so if you’re trying to avoid the bread, they’ve got you covered.
