Burger King could face a lawsuit for contaminating vegetarian food with meat oil, it has been revealed.

Stephen Galloway, an NHS healthcare assistant said that the brand has been dismissive from start to finish and instead of dealing with the problem they tried to silence him with 500 pounds and a gagging contract, the Daily Star reported.

The food giant had been plugging onion rings and chilli cheese bites as vegetarian on their website with a tiny asterix beside it and the end of the menu it was written in very small letters that the products were cooked in the same oil as fish and chicken.

Galloway is now considering taking a legal action against the company.
