"I had to go to 5 different Costas to find it available for my birthday freebie." This menu rotation has come as a brutal blow for many vegan fans of the ever-popular vegan rocky road.

They said: "Our Caramelised Biscuit Vegan Rocky Road was removed from the menu last winter as part of our seasonal refresh. "At Costa Coffee, we regularly update our offerings to bring customers exciting new flavours and experiences. "While some favourites may come and go, we're committed to providing a wide variety of high-quality, delicious options to suit a range of tastes and dietary needs." One user tried to offer alternative sources of vegan rocky road. Diddleymaz said: "If you like Vegan Rocky Road you can join Slimming World because they're selling boxes of their hifi bars in that variety and they're gorgeous." This comes after Grand Tour fans threatened to boycott Amazon Prime Video over fears of a change to their favourite show's lineup. After departing the BBC and leaving Top Gear behind in 2015, The Clarkson's Farm star teamed up again with his longtime colleagues. Alongside James May and Richard Hammond, he brought the on-screen band back together to make a different motoring show in 2016. The trio went on to front five full series of The Grand Tour, before airing one last special as a grand send off in September 2024. It marked the end of a 22-year-long collaboration between Jeremy, 65, James, 62, and Richard, 55. Now, it's been revealed that the series will continue on Amazon Prime but with new presenters leading the format. Thomas Holland and James Engelsman are a viral duo from the Throttle House car YouTube channel and they will be the new faces of the show. 4 A fan has threatened to boycott Costa over the chain's removal of the vegan rocky road snack Credit: Getty
