Mucho Burrito - Vegan Options

I know most of you think that Aldergrove is in a different time zone but we are actually still a part of the Translink area. I admit we are the last stop of Translink but nevertheless...I also think that per capita, we may be not doing too badly under the heading of "vegan eats available per capita", with the addition of Mucho Burrito in the last few weeks.

Located at the corner of 264th and Fraser Hwy, in the former home of StrEats which had no vegan options (maybe fries?) Mucho Burrito is at the healthy end of fast food. So we got lunch to go one weekend.
I had messaged them on Instagram to find out exactly what would be available that was plant-based as there doesn't seem to be a nutrition or allergen chart on the website.I was happy to learn that their beans don't see any lard and that they have plant-based cheese and plant-based ground meat. So it was easy to have 3 vegan tacos. For the most part, it was easiest to leave it to the servers to assemble what seemed good. We were happy with the outcome.
The burrito was the same with a variety of beans and veggies and always the cheese and meat (do they call it crumble?) just assembled in different order. We like that they grilled the burrito.
Lastly came the bowl with all the same stuff but without the shell. They have a choice of white or brown rice and they even have a habanero salsa which packs a medium punch.
So I know its just fast food but vegans need fast food too and this is pretty good! The fact that they have plant-based cheese and ground meat means there is some variety even though fast food Mexican style is always just the same ingredients in different arrangements. The staff have all been really friendly and seemed to know what was plant-based. Our new local stop when we are too lazy to cook?
