As the demand for plant-based fast food offerings continues to grow, Tim Hortons has rolled out a new Beyond Burger and BBQ Beyond Burger at 4,000 participating locations across Canada.
Tim Hortons' new Beyond Burger combines Beyond Meat’s 100 percent plant-based patty with a slice of cheese, tomato, shredded lettuce, ketchup, mustard, and mayo on a sesame seed bun. In other words, its a classic burger with a vegetarian-friendly twist. For those who are looking for something a bit more unique. The BBQ Beyond Burger takes the same plant-based patty and tops it was cheese, tomato, lettuce, BBQ sauce, and mayo.
While it's unclear with Tim Hortons will bring the Beyond Meat burgers to its US locations, it's apparent that there's a demand for more vegetarian and vegan offerings from the chain.
