We're very proud to share the news that our vegetarian food
brand Not Dogs has been chosen as one of two finalists in the 'Tastiest
Startup' category at the Virgin Foodpreneur Fest! We found out while travelling
with our little purple truck to Quorn HQ in Middlesborough this week and had to
pull over we were so excited!
On Wednesday we'll be heading to the live finale in
Battersea in London where we'll hear the judges; Sir Richard
Branson, acting Editor of the Guardian Cook magazine Mina Holland, founder of
Ella's Kitchen Paul Lindley and bloggers Jasmine and Melissa Hemsley, announce
the winning brand!
This is what Virgin Startup said about Not Dogs:
Created when founders Katie and Jane found themselves
frustrated at the lack of satisfying veggie fast food options at festivals, Not
Dogs proves that you don’t need meat to create a hot dog that ticks all the
boxes – and with imaginative toppings that include fried eggs, beer-caramelised
onions and crushed nachos, they’re way ahead of their traditional counterparts.
On Wednesday there will be a 'people's choice' competition
where competitors are encouraged to create a buzz around a particular hashtag
given out on the day (along with #VirginFoodFest) so it would be amazing if you could show your support and
look out for our tweets, retweeting and tweeting where you can, on @notdogsUK.
We're so pleased that in just nine months Not Dogs has gone
from a little idea on our 'Mental List' to us spending the summer travelling up
and down the UK in our lively truck and
now being finalists in a Virgin competition. Thanks to everyone who has
supported us on our journey so far... we can't wait for 2015!
Kickin' Katie & Plain Jane x
