Piers Morgan Refuses To Try Greggs Vegan Steak Bake On Good Morning Britain

Piers Morgan used his first appearance of 2020 on UK TV show Good Morning Britain to blast the new Greggs vegan steak bake — labelling it “a con.”

“It’s not a steak,” said Morgan, “a steak is a cut of meat or fish, it’s not vegan or vegetarian.”

“They should not be using meat terminology to sell non-meat products.”

When asked if he would try a steak bake, Morgan refused, repeating that “it is not meat..it’s a total con…you lot are all falling for it.”

The presenter ended his bizarre rant by stating that the pastry will likely sell well because the UK “has become a nation of lemmings.”

During the morning breakfast show, Morgan also shared his offence to the wildly popular vegan sausage roll from Greggs, claiming it “has more calories than a McDonalds cheeseburger.”

Greggs Vegan Steak Bake

The new plant-based pastry from Greggs was launched last week to coincide with Veganuary.

On sale for £1.55, the steak bake features 96 layers of thin puff pastry, with a Quorn filling mixed with onions and gravy.

“We’ve been working tirelessly to expand our vegan-friendly offering,” said Roger Whiteside, Chief Executive of Greggs, “and provide more delicious savoury food on-the-go options for people looking to reduce their meat intake.”

Due to the continued success of the sausage roll, Greggs will share a £7 million bonus among its 25,000 employees this month.
