Best vegan burger in the UK
The Oumph! Burger has won Best Vegan Burger in the 2020 Vegan Food & Living Product Awards. Up against the likes of Linda McCartney, Fry’s and Quorn, The Oumph! Burger was praised for its texture, flavour and close resemblance to a meat-based burger.
The jury’s verdict reads:
“This really tastes like a burger, with the crust and centre being pretty bang on. It has a very enjoyable taste and texture. This is a great one for anyone doing Veganuary in particular as it proves that vegans don’t have to miss out!”
Nick Jacobs, Head of Sales UK & Ireland, Oumph! Food for Progress comments:
“We’re delighted to have won vegan burger of the year and that it is testament to the incredible success the Oumph! Burger has achieved nationwide both in the retail sector but also within leading UK restaurants.”
The Oumph! Burger is available across the UK in Asda, as well as in popular, nationwide restaurant chains Café Rouge and Bella Italia, and London and South East pub chain Shepherd Neame.
Marc Saunders, Head of Brand at Bella Italia, Casual Dining Group comments:
“The Oumph! Burger makes up for more than 22% of Bella Italia’s burger sales. We offer a number of different dishes featuring Oumph! on our vegetarian and vegan menu, and they are all very popular, which contributed to Bella Italia recently being awarded Best Vegan Menu.”
In Ireland The Oumph! Burger is available at SuperValu and Centra stores.
Congratulations to Oumph! but we also wanna know which burgers came in second and third, right?
Second place (or highly commended) went to The Fry Family Quinoa and Brown Rice Protein Burger.
And third place (commended)? Quorn Ultimate Burger was recognised.
What do you think about these top three burgers? Are they the brands or products you would pick?
