In just the last week, Starbucks locations in Asia have debuted two new vegan sweets! But US Starbucks are still falling behind in the plant-powered revolution. Take action TODAY: Submit your vegan treat suggestion to Starbucks US!

Last year, Starbucks told Compassion Over Killing at its annual meeting that a US-wide vegan food line was on the horizon in 2018. But soon after the coffee giant finally poured out a vegan macadamia oat cookie on menus nationwide, it was discontinued 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. 

And in the past week, Starbucks Singapore has dished out vegan mooncakes, while South Korean Starbucks-goers can now enjoy vegan pound cake.

This year, COK took the chain to task at its shareholder meeting once again, and we were told that we’ll “continue to see work come from [Starbucks] in that area.”

So, Starbucks, where are the vegan sweet treats in the US?

Help us hold Starbucks accountable to its pledge for plant-based innovation: Submit your idea for a vegan cake or other sweet treat on US menus TODAY!
