Happy National Croissant Day! Today, join us in asking Starbucks to brew up vegan pastries for everyone to enjoy with their dairy-free coffee: Call 800-782-7282 (option 2)! See our sample script below.

Last spring, Starbucks told Compassion Over Killing at its annual shareholder meeting that a US-wide vegan food line was on the horizon in 2018. And after dishing out a vegan cupcake in Miami, tasty breakfast treats, and plant-powered protein bowls in select cities, the chain finally poured out a vegan option on menus nationwide: a macadamia oat cookie.

But then Starbucks told us the cookie was being phased out due to slow sales--and there’s still no sign of a more tempting cookie variety or a robust vegan menu in the US. Meanwhile, customers at Starbucks’ UK outlets are enjoying a variety of vegan sandwiches, breakfast items, and even mac and cheese starting this month.

Vegan food sales are soaring, with The Economist calling 2019 “the year of the vegan.” So why isn’t Starbucks US cashing in on this massive, growing market of conscious  eaters?

Let’s make sure Starbucks sees that there are millions seeking compassionate fare here in the US: Call the coffee giant at 800-782-7282 (option 2) using our sample script below or your own polite message. Then, let us know how your call went by emailing campaigns@cok.net.

SAMPLE SCRIPT: Happy National Croissant Day! I’m calling to ask you to brew up vegan pastries and other menu options that everyone can enjoy. Last spring, you promised us a US vegan food line, but you haven’t lived up to the buzz--even as your UK restaurants now offer vegan sandwiches and mac and cheese. Millions are hungry for vegan food with their dairy-free coffee! When will Starbucks pour out vegan food nationwide? Thank you.
