Take it off the menu??

[Thingscouldntgetanyworse]

Every week my DS’ school post this on the app. Every week. To remind everyone that the following day the sausage roll on the menu is vegan.

what cracks me up as they literally say “many children do not like them” and you have to think to yourself surely by this point you’d just remove it from the menu 😂

Yes. Just as a pp also said

if we said meat roll I would assume a bread roll with meat
Theres no difference in the understanding

A sausage roll is pastry based

Maybe it’s because I work in a school kitchen so am more familiar with how menus often work but the majority of primary schools in my experience offer two hot options each day, one meat and one vegetarian/vegan option.

So if the hot menu offer for that day was for example ‘roast chicken’ and ‘vegan roll’ I would assume that the vegan roll was of the hot pastry based variety rather than a cold sandwich. But that might just be because I’m more aware of that stuff because of my job.

Another option could be to call it a ‘hot vegan roll’ which might make it more clear that it’s pastry rather than bread.

Didn't they used to be called 'vegan sos rolls'? Much less confusing. Sosmix is basically stuffing with soya for protein.

I’ve never heard of vegan sos rolls
even googling just now diverted me to vegan sausage rolls

It could be
but the vegetarian and vegan world don’t use that
Not since I’ve been one since 1980 anyway.
perhaps terms are changing more recently as numbers increase and I’m now out of touch

As I’m always looking for new ideas what do you put in the vegan rolls ?

They leave them on the menu so they can say they have a vegan option. They mention most kids wont like them in order to keep them for only vegan kids.
