Moove Over, Meat! PETA Names the 10 Best Veggie Burgers in Vietnam

For the ‘Year of the Cow’, PETA Praises Patties That Make Cows Happy

Hanoi – In honour of the Year of the Cow, PETA has named the 10 Best Veggie Burgers in Vietnam, which come from restaurants across the country. Made from good-for-you ingredients such as quinoa, lentils, and mushrooms, veggie burgers are tasty and animal-friendly – unlike meaty ones. Cows killed for meat are confined to filthy feedlots, transported in all weather extremes to abattoirs, and strung up by one leg before their throats are slit, sometimes while they’re still conscious. It’s no wonder more and more people are opting for burgers without murder!

In no particular order, here are the winners:

• The Vegan Garden’s VG’s Giant Godfather V2 in Ho Chi Minh City
• Chickpea Eatery’s Vegan Protein Burger in Da Nang
• The Organik House’s Signature Plant Boosted Burger in Ho Chi Minh City
• Karma Waters’ Veggie Burger in Hoi An and Da Noi
• Happy Cow’s Mushroom Me Burger in Ho Chi Minh City
• House of Chay’s Mega Lentil Burger in Ho Chi Minh City
• iVegan’s Black Bean Quinoa Burger in Hanoi
• ROOTS Plant-Based Café’s Mush’s Burger in Da Nang
• Kiez’s Keiz’s Burger Combo in Hanoi
• Tartine Saïgon’s Veggies Burger in Ho Chi Minh City

 Images of the award-winning veggie burgers are available upon request. The restaurants will all receive framed certificates.

“The Year of the Cow is the perfect time to show compassion to cows – who feel joy, love, pain, and fear just as humans, cats, dogs, and other animals do – by leaving them off our plates,” says PETA Senior Vice President Jason Baker. “With so many delicious veggie burgers to choose from in restaurants everywhere, it’s easy (and tasty) to save a cow in the Year of the Cow – and every year.”

Every person who goes vegan saves the lives of nearly 200 animals each year. Going meat-free protects human health, too: like swine flu, bird flu, and SARS, COVID-19 has been linked to eating animals – and so have heart disease, diabetes, strokes, and cancer.

PETA – whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to eat” – opposes speciesism, which is the human-supremacist view that other species are nothing more than commodities.
