Taco Bell, which is part ofYum! Brands, Inc.(NYSE:YUM), is now serving vegan rice again.

The new Taco Bell vegan rice is listed as Seasoned Rice on the companys menu. The menu item was available in April, but was removed and replaced with a vegetarian option. The Mexican food chain originally didnt plan to have the option back on the menu until the end of summer.

We worked closely with our supplier to make it happen as quickly as possible to let our vegan fans know we were committed, Alec Boyle, a Taco Bell spokesman, told VegNews. We recognize we have a lot of vegans and vegetarians who come to us, and that even meat-eaters and flexitarians come to us and enjoy our vegan products.

To cut down on confusion, Taco Bell now only serves Seasoned Rice to its customers. This makes it easier for vegans and vegetarians to keep track of what they are eating, without it being a bother to other customers.

Taco Bell actually has a full guide on how to eat vegan at its restaurants. This includes a full list of items on its menu that are vegan certified by theAmerican Vegetarian Association. That list is as follows.
