Introducing the Delish-etarian Movement
As part of this exciting collaboration, Costa Coffee and BOSH! are thrilled to introduce the concept of “delish-etarian.” More than just for vegans, delish-etarians are individuals who are plant-based conscious and strive to make mindful food choices.
Both Costa Coffee and BOSH! are committed to catering to the evolving preferences of their customers, whether they are vegan, vegetarian, a flexitarian or simply trying to reduce their meat intake. By collaborating with the Nation’s Favourite Coffee Shop*, together BOSH! and Costa Coffee are ensuring that everyone can enjoy delicious and sustainable plant-based options.
Cathy Goodwin, Head of Food Innovation at Costa Coffee, says: “We’re proud to be making plant-based products more accessible at Costa Coffee with an exciting collaboration with BOSH!. Ultimately, everyone wants to eat delicious food, and teaming up with the remarkable talents at BOSH!, together we have created a range of delicious plant-based product tailored for delish-etarians everywhere.
