Carl's Jr. to offer vegan Moving Mountains burger in Spain

It will serve as their plant-based alternative to its signature Famous Star cheeseburger.

Carl’s Jr. locations in Spain are now offering the vegan Moving Mountains burger.

Made with a blend of pea protein, wheat protein and mushrooms, the Moving Mountains vegan “bleeding” burger offers B12 and 15 grams of protein. Carl’s Jr. serves the burger with cheese, but customers can order it without.

“Integrating a burger that is not only plant-based but also healthy, into a fast-food establishment is a significant step and is a real taste of what’s to come for the future of food,” Moving Mountains founder Simeon Van Der Molen in a statement.

Carl’s Jr. already offers vegan Beyond Burgers in 21 locations in Canada and in its more than 1,100 restaurants across the United States.

In the UK, the Moving Mountains burger is also available in a number of locations, including 413 Marston’s pubs and 200 schools, hospitals, and universities.

“Our mission is to make truly inspiring flexitarian dining available to everyone using the latest food technology,” Van Der Molen added. “With the Moving Mountains Famous Star Burger, consumers now have more innovative and high-quality plant-based options than ever before to satisfy meat cravings when eating out, without ever compromising on taste.”
