Veggie Burgers at McDonald's?
Thursday May 8, 2008
Certain McDonald’s locations now offer a veggie burger, but I’m wondering how many animal activists will purchase this item at McDonald’s. I’ve heard some activists argue that we should support any pro-animal efforts, and buying veggie burgers at McDonald’s will ensure that the burgers stay available and become available at more locations.
However, I’m more of the mind that I can choose to support veggie options at less offensive restaurants, and I’d rather not spend any of my money at McDonald’s. Given McDonald’s track record on animal issues, what do you think of buying veggie burgers at McDonald’s?

hey, i eat the ones at Burger King. I don’t go out of my way to seek out these sorts of resturants, but if I am on a road trip (which I often am) and have limited options I’d rather eat a McDonald’s veggie burger than nothing.
About 3 years ago, McDonald’s in Malaysia sold a veggie burger that was to die for. Absolutely delicious, with just the right amount of spiciness. Sadly, it was discontinued. It had actual pieces of corn and other veggies in it. So good!
I agree…I cant imagine any Vegetarian eating at Mcduffus. However, It would show an effort in the right direction and would put the company in a better light….considering all the issues that have been brought up against them.
