The Vegan Thread

Paul Baron, the owner of I Am Doner, a pair of kebab shops in Leeds and Harrogate, said his vegan kebab routinely outsold chicken, halloumi and falafel. Made from seitan, a meat substitute derived from wheat gluten, the “voner” kebab sometimes outsells the lamb alternative too.

I still wonder if it's going to be anything more than faddish--e.g., looking at how the vegan chip shop in Graham Road closed down quite quickly after demand presumably levelled off when people's curiosity was sated. Still, it can't be denied that the junk food angle got huge attention, being strangely inclusive.
