In a high street first, Marks & Spencer is launching new vegan brioche burger and hot dog buns - made from avocados.

Puréed avocado replaces egg in the recipe, and actually gives the buns a slight green hue. Vegan-friendly coconut oil is used to give that classic brioche texture.

Both buns offer a source of vitamin D and fibre, and are ideal for vegans or those looking to try something a little different with their summer BBQ.

The new vegan buns are available from 16 June, priced at £1.15 each for a pack of two.

Safety in stores

M&S Foodhalls are open, with daily deliveries from suppliers. Staff are re-stocking shelves throughout the day, so customers can stagger their shopping trips.

To help keep all customers and colleagues well, stores have implemented additional social distancing measures. Local store opening times can be found online, including special opening hours for older or vulnerable customers, as well as NHS, health and social care workers.
