FAQ
The traditional sauce is not; as it contains non-vegan mayonnaise. However; this recipe is, because we’ve used vegan mayonnaise as a substitute.
The apple slices are the safest bet. The fries, and hash browns are fried with canola oil, soybean oil, hydrogenated soybean oil and "natural beef flavor". The "natural beef flavor" is a wheat and milk derivative.
We like Schar available at Walmart or Amazon. Pure Knead available at Kroger grocery stores. Katz hamburger bun available online.
Storage
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
