A significant shift is set to take place at Oktoberfest 2022<\/a>, as several vegan options are added to menus for what may be the first time in the event’s history.<\/p>\n

The Munich-based beer festival is known for its meat-heavy dishes, with 435,000 chickens and 124 oxen said to be consumed each year. But change is coming — the Ochsenbraterei, a venue best known for publicly grilling oxen on a rotisserie, has hired chef Sebastian Copien to develop vegan options. With Copien’s help, the menu now features three plant-based dishes — vegan patties with potato salad, vegan bratwurst with sauerkraut, and mushroom goulash with pulled plant-based meat.<\/p>\n

“Vegetarian and vegan diets are not a trend, but have been proven to be good for people and nature,” Ochsenbraterei landlady Antje Haberl told Suddeutsche Zeitung<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Vegan Wei\u00dfwurst<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This year, Oktoberfest visitors will also be able to enjoy vegan Wei\u00dfwurst (white sausage) for the first time. The festival has partnered with German alt-meat brand GREENFORCE to develop the sausage, which is made from pea protein, spices, and parsley.<\/p>\n

It took a year of R&D and a \u20ac500,000 investment to perfect the recipe. Oktoberfest host Michael K\u00e4fer previously invested in GREENFORCE<\/a> in 2021.<\/p>\n

Oktoberfest at Bundobust<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Though Oktoberfest is based in Munich, other cities across the globe also celebrate the festival. In Manchester, UK, vegetarian Indian restaurant Bundobust<\/a> will be offering free beer from its brewery alongside meals during the festiival. The dishes will be plant-based and Indian-inspired takes on German festival food, with examples including currywurst koftas and spiced pretzels.<\/p>\n

Oktoberfest 2022 will take place from September 17 to October 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
