More sugar shacks in Quebec are offering vegetarian and vegan options to meet the increasing demand for meatless meals.
People sample some hot maple syrup on snow, Thursday, March 10, 2016 in Saint Marc-sur Richilieu, Que.THE CANADIAN PRESS/Ryan RemiorzMONTREAL -- As the sugaring-off season begins, thousands of Quebecers will head to a cabane a sucre, or sugar shack, for a traditional heavy meal drenched in sweet syrup.
"It's looking like a good season, and the cabane is almost reserved to capacity until the end of the sugar season," he said. "The customers who really like our meat told us that instead of being a group of 20 people, they would be 26 if we had a vegan menu, so we adapted," he said. "There's no lard in our baked beans, and I challenge anyone to tell the difference," Louis-Robert Handfield said in a phone interview.
