'Neat Burger,' the U.K-based restaurant chain, has announced new Mediterranean vegan chicken nuggets made in collaboration with the Spain-based alternative meat brand 'Heura.' Heura is famous for its vegan proteins that are made with authentic Mediterranean flavors, while Neat Burger is famous for its deliciously spiced burgers.
This new collaboration sees the combination of Heura's legume-based protein and Neat Burger's chicken spice blend in a new bite-sized form. While Neat Burger is not as widely known as larger QSR burger chains, such as A&W, the U.K-based restaurant plans on being a prime competitor in the plant-based market. Due to Heura's diverse range of flavors and its experience with restaurant partnerships, Neat Burger's vegan chicken nuggets offer a high-quality artisanal taste at prices equivocal to fast-food brands, making these products an excellent option for vegan and meat-eating consumers alike.
