Holy Cow! Ikea Tries Vegan Meatball

Ikea, almost as well known for its Swedish meatballs as its assemble-it-yourself furniture, is about to give its hungry but socially conscious shoppers a vegetarian option: veggie balls. More specifically, vegan veggie balls made with no animal products whatsoever. In a bid to appeal to millennials and those eager for more sustainable food options, the chain on Wednesday said it will add veggie balls to its menu at most U.S. restaurants beginning Thursday. A plate of 10 will sell for $4.49. Also, chicken balls will be sold at its restaurants beginning April 27.
