Starbucks No Longer Serves Plant-Based Meat In The US

Starbucks has officially discontinued the Impossible Breakfast Sandwich, ending its six-year partnership with Impossible Foods in the US. This decision comes amid reports of low sales, with some employees noting that a significant portion of the Impossible patties went wasted. The sandwich, which included animal-derived cheese and egg, primarily appealed to flexitarians rather than vegans, as it wasn't entirely plant-based.

Fans of the sandwich have expressed disappointment in online forums, highlighting its popularity despite its discontinuation. Currently, Starbucks offers only one dedicated vegan option in the US, the Spicy Falafel Pocket. Other menu items can be adapted for a plant-based diet, but overall, the selection for vegan customers remains quite limited.
