Vegan TikToker Claims Tim Hortons Served Vegan Wrap With Real Cheese
This is the moment a lactose-intolerant vegan bites into a wrap at a Tim Hortons restaurant in Glasgow and claims she ate dairy cheese and felt sick afterwards.
The video was shared on TikTok by Robyn, a trainee accountant in Glasgow, who runs the ‘Robyns Food’ page about her journey as a vegan and the types of dishes she eats.
The video of her apparently eating a vegan wrap with dairy cheese in it, viewed over 570,000 times, was shared with the message: “I am lactose intolerant!”
Robyn told Newsflash the incident took place at the Tim Hortons fast-food restaurant in Silverburn Shopping Centre in Glasgow on 12th February.
She explained that she ordered a vegan breakfast wrap and assumed the cheese was vegan and not dairy. She examined the wrap because she thought it “tasted weird” and checked the company’s website.
She confronted a member of staff after learning that cheese is not included in the vegan wrap from the website.
Robyn said the worker claimed the cheese included was dairy-free, but she was certain it wasn’t and later felt the consequences.
She told Newsflash: “I ate some of it and I had stomach pains later, but nothing serious.”
She added: “After that I didn’t eat any more of the cheese.”
The vegan influencer also said she has emailed the company but has not heard back from them yet.
Robyn added: “I mostly was annoyed at being lied to when I asked if it was real cheese. I wasn’t angry when I went up to ask, I just was going to ask for a new wrap without cheese in it, but the girl insisted it was vegan cheese and I didn’t argue even though I didn’t believe her because I’m not that confrontational.”
