What a year 2021 has been! And we’re just talking about the vegan food!
Consumers are waking up to the benefits of vegan eating – to improve their own health, protect the planet, and spare the other animals we share it with a life of suffering and a horrifying death. Nowadays, it’s hard to walk down the street without seeing an advert or chalkboard proudly showcasing the word “vegan”.
Now in their ninth year, PETA’s Vegan Food Awards highlight some of the most delicious and exciting new vegan offerings in the last 12 months. Check out the award winners below, and try them for yourself:
BEST VEGAN MEAT
Oumph! – they did it again. Loved by meat-eaters and vegans alike, this döner meat is full of protein and flavour – just what you need to build the kebab of your dreams.
BEST VEGAN BURGER
This vegan burger from McDonald's will introduce vegan food to a new audience and make it easier than ever for vegans on the go. Our opinion? They McDid it! Complete with vegan mayo and the chain’s secret vegan burger sauce, the McPlant is the burger everyone has been waiting for. Do you want fries with that? Go ahead – they’re vegan.
BEST VEGAN CHICKEN
VFC is on a mission to save chickens – one bite at a time – with its tasty vegan fried chicken fillets and bites. Available in spicy and original flavours with a southern fried crispy cornflake coating, this high-protein vegan meat will be available at Tesco from 1 November or from VFC direct to your door.
BEST VEGAN CHEESE
Organic macadamia and cashew nuts are fermented to deliver a distinctive sharp, umami tang in this sensational soft, creamy cheese. It is marinated in a blend of extra virgin olive and cold-pressed rapeseed oil infused with black peppercorns, garlic, and thyme. Enjoy it on a cheeseboard, in a sandwich, or straight out of the jar at midnight – we won’t judge.
BEST VEGAN SUSHI
The sushi is the crown jewel on 123V’s impressive all-vegan . Chef Alexis Gauthier marinates 123V’s to magical effect, while leaving the fish in the sea where they belong. The future is vegan, and top chefs like Gauthier are leading the way.
BEST VEGAN FISH
The Brook Beer Battered Tofish
Expertly crafted by The Brook’s vegan chefs and delivered to your door ready to heat and eat, these crispy battered fishless bites come with tangy tartar or piquant green chilli sauce to bring a fish-friendly taste of the sea to your plate. The dish is available as part of a number of menus in The Brook’s range, including its sensational Sea-lover’s Sharing Menu – seafood in a new way.
BEST VEGAN BACON
Finnebrogue Artisan Naked Without the Oink! Plant-Based Bacon Rashers
Produced in the company’s own vegan facility, Naked Without the Oink! Plant-Based Bacon Rashers prove that no pig flesh is needed to make crispy, delicious bacon. They’re available from supermarkets or in Costa Coffee’s luscious Vegan Bac’n Bap!
BEST VEGAN HOTDOG
An excellent freezer staple from Aldi for when you want a quick bite. Simmer for 8 minutes, pop ’em in a roll with all the fixings, and you’re good to go! Also great when barbecued or chopped up in beans, these ’dogs have all the versatility with none of the cruelty.
BEST VEGAN SAUSAGE
Packed full of veggies and flavoured with parsley and sage, these herby veggie bangin’ breakfast bangers are good for any time of day. They’re part of HECK’s expanding vegan offerings.

Today, more and more humans are recognising that other animals share their desire to live and that eating vegan is better for their health and for the planet. And a growing number of businesses understand that vegan foods are profitable and more inclusive, can help them reach their sustainability goals, and are more appealing to that all-important younger demographic, which is passionate about forging a better future for every living, feeling being. As a result, you can now find innovative, filling, and simply delicious vegan food pretty much everywhere you go. We’re accelerating towards our destination of a vegan world, and we’re not going to stop.
