NO KFC? NO PROBLEM. VEGAN FRIED CHICKEN FROM SHEFFIELD BURGER JOINT NABS PETA AWARD FOR BEST IN THE UK

‘Burger Lolz’ Earns Top 10 Spot for Delicious Cruelty-Free Fare

Sheffield – In the wake of KFC’s chicken “crisis”, PETA has finalised its list of the top 10 places to find vegan fried chicken in the UK, and all-vegan Sheffield eatery Burger Lolz has nabbed a spot for its scrumptious spiced fried served with vegan mayonnaise, lettuce, and fresh tomatoes as well as crispy “chicken” strips and “popcorn chicken” pieces.

Photos are also available here and here.

“The plant-based chicken at Burger Lolz delivers huge flavour with zero cruelty,” says PETA Director of Vegan Corporate Projects Dawn Carr. “PETA’s top 10 list will help those turned away from KFC to get their fried ‘chicken’ fix without the battered flesh of dead birds.”

PETA – whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to eat” – notes that chickens are smart, social, and sensitive animals who love their families and value their own

Every person who goes vegan not only spares more than 100 animals a year profound suffering and a terrifying death but also reduces his or her risk of suffering from heart attacks, obesity, diabetes, and numerous other ailments. And a report from the United Nations found that a global switch to vegan eating is necessary to combat the very worst effects of climate change.

Burger Lolz will receive a framed award. Rounding out PETA’s list are Not Dogs in Birmingham, Seitan’s Grill in Cheltenham, Bread Meats Bread in Edinburgh, Earth in Hampshire, Vegan Fried Chicken in Leeds, The Caledonia in Liverpool, Temple of Seitan in London, V-Rev in Manchester, and Happy Friday Kitchen in Oxford.
