Another major fast-food chain is jumping on the Beyond Meat bandwagon, as Subway announced this week that they will be testing out a sub sandwich made with the plant-based protein at select Canadian and U.S. locations soon.
Subway has teamed up with Beyond Meat to concoct a Beyond Meatball™ Marinara sub, which will feature the plant-based meat substitute - the first-ever Beyond Meatball - created just for the sandwich chain.

Everything else about the sub is essentially the same, from sauce to cheese (so it's not vegan as-is) though there is more protein in the Beyond Meat version, coming in at 24g per six-inch sub.

The trial phase for the Beyond Meatball sub at Subway starts this September and will run for a limited time only.
