Vegan Quorn Burger

The Delivery: Quorn’s new vegan burger
Staff Pick: The burger!

The DL: When we first heard that Quorn came out with a vegan burger, we couldn’t wait to try it—but after a huge South Indian lunch and taste-testing cookies from the Holiday Cookie Contest, we’re stuffed. We can’t wait to reveal the mouth-watering winning recipes next week, so keep your eyes on VegNews.com, stock your shelves with baking ingredients, and dig out those holiday cookie cutters. You’re in for a treat!

Pies, Fruit Bars, Personal Care Products, and a Book

The Delivery: Deadly Powers by Paul A. Trout, ProBar fruit bars, Jason body- and hair-care products, The Buddha Beauty Company foot cream and body butter, and raw pies from Sidesaddle Kitchen (see below)

Staff Pick: Delicious chocolate-chipotle, pumpkin-spice, and maple-pecan pies

The DL: Full disclosure—the reason why these pies did not make it in the group product shot above is because they arrived yesterday during our Thanksgiving feast and we ravenously made them disappear. Three pies, an entire Native Foods Wellington, more mashed potatoes than any normal group of people should ever eat, fluffy biscuits, salad, and more were no match for the voracious VegNews team. Now, we’re ready to nosh on amazing feasts during our upcoming five-day weekend—check out our plans and last-minute Thanksgiving tips for some inspiration. Happy Tofurky Day!

Chocolates and Dips

The Delivery: Desiderio Chocolates marshmallow truffle bar and salted chocolate caramels, and Blushing Apple’s vegan dips—roasted tomato salsa, tapenade, and roasted fig dip

Staff Pick: Vanilla marshmallow truffle bar

The DL: In just a matter of minutes, the entire VegNews staff will be chowing down on an amazing Thanksgiving luncheon. On the menu: Native Foods Wellington, homemade mashed potatoes, soy egg nog, roasted Brussels sprouts, and… you’ll have to check Café VegNews later today for more details! If you still haven’t figured out your Thanksgiving centerpiece plans, check out our taste test for some last minute ideas. Now back to that feast…
