Since the beginning of March, Burger King Germany’s plant-based products have been cheaper than their meat alternatives. With the aim of making the plant-based alternative accessible to as many people as possible.

During the campaign entitled: ‘Plant-based für alle!’ (Plant-based for all!), their plant-based burgers by The Vegetarian Butcher have been introduced in a new form, the ‘Flower Patty’.
