Yep
As Piers and Greggs share the same PR company, it was an excellent bit of advertising, but doesn't detract from Veganism being the way forward

A vegan sausage roll is not healthy!! Just because it’s vegan!
-
Chris said it was 'healthier', I.e. more so than the alternative: a regular sausage role. It has less calories, more protein and less fat. Please see below:https://twitter.com/_ayrtonnn/status/1080848036098723840?s=19 …
-
Marginally less calories and fat.
-
It doesn’t even tell us what fat it is made up of, this is why labels like this can be so misleading
-
Do you really need to know more than saturates? You wouldn't be so picky if the meat one had less fat.
-
Well yes when many studies now suggest saturated fat is not as harmful as once believed

Have you ever thought why a dedicated vegan would want non meat food that looks like a processed dead animal? We like fresh plant based food that looks like, well plants really.
-
Is a sausage the shape of a pig? If not, then a sausage roll isn't in the shape of meat, it's in the shape of a food parcel, just like non meat burgers.
-
I'm assuming you are not vegan Darren, or even vegetarian, otherwise you would recognise the absurdity of a vegan sausage roll, burger or whatever. These are the sort of things non vegans think vegans would like. Bit like giving an Arachnophobic a plastic spider.
-
Been fully vegetarian for almost 2 years Barry. Not fully vegan but I don't eat a lot of dairy. I just don't see a problem with plant based stuff made into the shape of other foods which contain meat. They are only that shape because they're convenient shapes.
-
Well I have to admit I thought like you about thirty years ago, admittedly there wasn't the choice then that we have now. However, over time my attitude to animals changed, I now see them as brother beings and a vegan sausage roll for me normalises the idea of their slaughter
-
I see that point. I hadn't thought of it like that. I also see animals as equal. There shouldn't be any reason to mimic meat based products exactly I agree.
-
Its a realisation that creeps up on you, it did on me without any conscious thought and has on a few others I have talked to. In the seventies there used to be an old bloke who walked Oxford Street saying eating meat caused war. Now I'm not so sure he was wrong.
-
Been vegetarian pretty much all my life and I could never understand why people who have given up meat want food that looks like meat. I just don't get it. But at least they have given up the real thing!
