Popular international sandwich chain, Subway, has just announced the debut of their first ever vegan sandwich to reach consumers of New Zealand and Australia. This sandwich will now be available at 100 locations between Australia and New Zealand combined!
Ordering an all veggie sub, minus the cheese, and any dairy-based condiments has always been an option for vegan Subway goers, but now for those in the Australian region, they can now purchase a plant-based falafel sandwich topped with a smorgasbord of vegetables!
Kate Brody, Subway director of marketing, says that this sandwich has been added to the menu because they know palates are developing and plant-based options are high in demand. Brody also says that, “we’re excited to hear directly from our guests so we can end up with a great balance between the classic Subway favorites, and on-trend, innovative flavors.”
Australia and New Zealand aren’t the only locations that are debuting vegan Subway sandwiches. You can now purchase a “Vegan Delite” in Finland which is essentially a soy-based patty similar to that of a spicy vegan steak. Additionally in the United States, they recently launched two new vegan sandwiches at Subway: Black Bean and Malibu Garden, which can be purchased at over 1,000 Subways in the country!
Eating vegan has never been more convenient!
Grabbing a Subway, vegan sandwich on the go is fast and convenient, but sometimes you may prefer to pack your own sandwich! These recipes from our Food Monster App take no time at all and are super tasty!

Mushrooms are the perfect plant-based bacon substitute because they have a lovely meaty texture. These savory shrooms are paired with zesty arugula, salty olives, and a creamy avocado spread that will make your mouth water.

This sandwich comes together in minutes. All you need is store-bought smoked tofu, avocado, hummus, and any vegetables you prefer. It is the perfect mouthful!

This is a fresh take on a classic egg salad sandwich utilizing 100% plant-based ingredients. The result is a delicious, protein sandwich you can feel good about eating.
