Gregg's the bakers

[subversplat]

Why is it lying? A bit of egg wash doesn't suddenly disqualify something from being veggie friendly. Vegan maybe...

The quote:

A spokesperson said, "we do not use animal fats or animal by-products in our non-meat pies and pasties."

doesn't mention veggie, vegan or anything. Last time I checked, cheese, milk and egg contained significant quantities of animal fats and were both animal by-products. Replace "animal" with "slaughter" then it's right, and I might be being pedantic or whatever, but I like spokespeople (especially those dealing with things that people are going to buy and consume) to at least communicate with clairty.

I love greggs sausage and bean melt, but its shrunk recently

They've all shrunk in recent times, in line with the output of rival bakeries, and in keeping with consumer demand for a smaller, healthier product. The lying bastards. Kill a cow and put some fucking pastry on it.

What sort of idiot buys a cheese and onion pie and expects it to be vegan friendly though?

And it's a spokesman for Greggs for christsakes. This is a bum standard operation, with the staff to match.

The cheese and onion one, yeah fair enough, but the other ones - "Country Vegetable" and the like are a bit ambiguous. It'd be nice to know that people had an inkling what they were on about
