Note: Tribe’s Vegabomb Burger was originally in the final 16, but as Tribe's menu is seasonal, it's currently unavailable until next year. Since voters can’t try it, we decided to remove it from the cup. However, their new seasonal offering—the Vegan Gluten-free Black Bean Burger—is available now, and we encourage veggie fans to try it and see how it stacks up!
