The Dunkin' Beyond Sausage Sandwich was test marketed by the brand during the summer in Manhattan and has earned a national launch that's coming November 6 along with an exclusive sampling promotion. Curious consumers can enjoy a sample of the plant-based breakfast sandwich on November 8 and 9 at participating locations between 8am and 10am while supplies last. The sampling event will help to offer weary patrons a way to try the meat-free menu item before purchasing a whole one, which will come as welcome news to consumers of all ranges.
The Dunkin' Beyond Sausage Sandwich national launch and sampling is part of the continued push towards plant-based QSR foods as brands offer familiar fare with a vegetarian twist.
