One of my favorite fast-food restaurants for vegan food is Panda Express. This may come as a surprise to some since, for years and years, Panda Express was not a vegan-friendly establishment at all. Thanks to the help of petitions from PETA and advances in plant-based mock-meats thousands across the country can now indulge in veganized traditional American-Chinese fusion foods!
Read my guide below for your guide to eating vegan at Sanford's location of Panda Express!

Cross-Contamination
Panda Express does share surfaces with animal products; therefore, cross-contamination can/will occur. The woks are shared but are wiped out after each item
