ASDA is the first supermarket in the UK to launch The Oumph! Burger, which weighs 113g, the equivalent of a Quarter Pounder. “The Oumph! Burger launched in the Nordic countries earlier this year, and off the back of that we immediately saw a huge consumer demand in the UK – it’s sure to be a plant-based favourite on the barbecue this summer”, continues Laura Weadock.
