Will Skinner has created a cruelty free, vegan junk food pop-up that is coming to Cardiff this November, at The Robin Hood pub, Pontcanna.<\/p>\n

The 39-year-old, who is the founder of the pop-up company, Greazy Vegan<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>decided to go forward with the idea because he had noticed that people were reluctant to become vegan as they said they would miss junk food too much.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of people feel they are reluctant to make the change because they feel they will miss out. I am quite an unhealthy vegan and I thought there would be a gap in the market,\u201d Will says.<\/p>\n

The types of food to be expected at the pop-up will be vegan style southern fried chicken, burgers and hot dogs.<\/p>\n

Will explains that the chicken is made from seitan which is a wheat gluten.<\/p>\n

Some food is prepared a few days before the event but Will makes clear that the bulk of his menu is truly \u201cfast food.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGetting the Big Mac sauce took me months to get right,\u201d Will says, as he explains that he is trying to replicate fast food such as the Big Mac and The Whopper.<\/p>\n

He made vegan copies of fast food menus from his own taste, but was also told by friends that his creations tasted really good.<\/p>\n

The 39-year-old says that he does not have plans to take his business nationally just yet.<\/p>\n

“I want to focus on turning my business into a takeaway first,” he says.<\/p>\n

All the profits from the first pop-up will be going to Cardiff Vegan Action group and each pop-up will go to different vegan related charities.<\/p>\n

Marielle Wilkinson, who is not a vegan but is interested in becoming one says that she is “excited to try the vegan junk food.”<\/p>\n

The first pop-up is to be held on the 12th<\/sup> of November and the second will be on the 19th<\/sup> November.<\/p>\n
