TWO companies have partnered up and claim to have created the world’s first cider-infused vegan pork & apple burger.
Cider maker Orchard Pig joined forces with plant-based producer The Meatless Farm Co to create The Porkie Burger.
This latest burger lover’s innovation is made using Meatless Farm plant-based sausages (made from pea, soya and rice proteins), topped with a cider-infused apple & chilli jam and melty vegan cheese.
The recipe was invented by the research & development teams of Orchard Pig & Meatless Farm, who created the bespoke vegan burger as a perfect pairing to a cider.
Zoe Atkinson at Orchard Pig, said: “At Orchard Pig, we’re proud to say our full cider range is accredited as vegan by the Vegetarian Society, unlike some of the leading cider brands on the market, meaning you don’t need to miss out on one of life’s pleasures to do good for the planet.”
“Naturally, we needed to create the perfect vegan pairing dish to go with our vegan cider – and what’s better than a decadent burger?”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
