# Vegan Superfood Sandwiches Marks & Spencer Launched Two Vegan Healthy Sandwiches By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2017-08-08 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/healthy-sandwiches References: [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/BOzgElEBH-y/) & [metro](http://metro.co.uk/2017/01/26/ms-has-brought-out-a-new-vegan-sandwich-range-6407676/) Early this year, [Marks & Spencer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheddar-cheese-marmite-sandwich) introduced two new healthy sandwiches—Super Green and Rainbow Veg—that are entirely vegan. The Super Green sandwich is made on a base of linseed and chia bread with a rich filling of minted edamame and peas. The Rainbow Veg variety takes the form of a red pepper bread that is loaded with chili squash and pumpkin seeds, boasting fewer calories than the other vegan sandwich offering. One of the challenges with eating grab-and-go foods as a vegan is that many of the vegetarian salads or sandwiches are loaded with cheese, eggs or butter. These healthy sandwiches, which have packaging that is stamped with a vegan symbol, set themselves apart for this reason. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 54% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Vegan Healthy Sandwiches:** Creating a variety of vegan sandwiches that are nutritious and appealing to health-conscious consumers. - **Grab-and-go Vegan Foods:** Developing convenient vegan food options that are easy to consume on the go. - **Vegan Packaging:** Designing packaging that clearly indicates vegan-friendly products for easy identification. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food Retail:** Creating and selling vegan sandwiches and grab-and-go options in supermarkets and specialty food stores. - **Plant-based Foods:** Producing innovative vegan products and ingredients for the food industry. - **Eco-friendly Packaging:** Manufacturing sustainable and vegan-friendly packaging solutions for food and beverage products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Chunky Vegan-Friendly Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-cannonballs-sandwich.md) - [Vegan-Friendly Sandwich Toppers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cured-meat-style-slices.md) - [Plant-Based Parisian Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-club-sandwich.md) - [Expanded Plant-Based Sandwich Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-eat-roots.md) - [Meat-Free Retailer Meal Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veggie-range.md) - [Spicy Plant-Based Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-bbq-vegan-chicken-sandwich.md) - [Vegan Holiday Meal Wraps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festive-stuffing-winter-veg-wrap.md) - [Vegan Tandoori Chicken Flatbreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-flatbread.md) - [Ready-to-Eat Vegan Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squeaky-bean-vegan-snacks.md)
