This place is NOT fully vegan!

I've been here many times before since it's the only place in Lisbon with the Beyond Burger but last time I noticed there was butter on the bun. I asked if it really was butter and was told that it was, to "help with the frying" but was assured it was from "a vegetal source". I've had butter before - this was dairy butter. It's a severe breach of trust to have butter at a place called Vegan Junkies. Makes me wonder what else they're lying about. Why not use sunflower or olive oil? I don't understand at all. They should change their name to Veggie Junkies.

Pros: Beyond Burger and other food is nice

Cons: NOT fully vegan

Hello Bantunes.

This comment comes as surprise for our entire team, as it hurts the liability of a whole community enganged on bringing value to such a nobel cause as the Veganism.

As in regards of the accusation, as you were explained during your last visit(of many, as mentioned by you) there is not a single item of animal origin in our menu.

We do use vegetal margarine while toasting our bread, always certified by the vegan society, and we will be happy to show you at any point, no need to let us know before ;). We would love to give you a tour through our kitchen, we are happy to share our recipies!

On other hand, we feel somehow accomplished to surprise our visitors with flavous never experienced before, and again, we would love to share a list of suppliers that work hard to make the vegan market so rich and interesting.

We hope to see you soon back here and adress any other question you might have .

The VEGAN JUNKIES team.
