Does the vegan cafe do a carnivore option?

It would have to be McD, as she likes muffing on a Sunday morning

Used to be a fan of Mcds, but since discovering gluten intolerance, there's nothing on their menu that I can actually eat.

McDonalds every time, as they seem keen to support farmers in the countries they operate. My biggest knock on them is they use organic milk in some of their range.

McDonald’s:
1. I can check what’s in their food and they are fastidious regarding allergens.
2. The majority of their menu will be sourced from UK producers (I believe the chicken isn’t, plus some salads)
3. I grow seed potatoes that end up as their chips, and they contribute to a grower grant development fund
4. If you don’t have anything fizzy or sweet I don’t think it’s that bad for you
5. You’re in and out quickly if you’re in before the toonsers wake up at 11.00
6. Their advertising campaigns of the last few years has been more beneficial to UK agriculture than anything RT or NFU have managed lately.
7. I know what I’m going to get and won’t come away feeling ripped off.
8. I don’t like the vegan propaganda machine and it’s web of lies
9. In March I don’t think much of the vegan fare would be from the UK.
10. I don’t like avocados or mushrooms, so that’s 2/3 of the vegan menu out.
11. Won’t eat quorn as it’s an animal feed so that’s the other 1/3 of the vegan menu out.
12. I don’t mix well with the regular frequenters of vegan hotspots, my wife’s tried several times to enlighten me, but it’s never gonna happen, can’t keep mouth shut.
There’s probably more reasons, but I’ve bored myself now.

There's nothing wrong with properly done vegan food imo.......it's many of the vegan people that are the real problem!
I'd always rather support an independent place than a chain, and also somewhere that used "proper" ingredients rather than additives etc.

That's a daft question, Do you really expect a farmer to admit he eats vegan ,, but if i was hungry in town I would go to Spar and get what I wanted there ,

I don't know why McD get the bad press they do. don't they buy local ish and promote UK farming very well?
Nothing wrong with vegan food as far as taste etc goes but it doesn't really promote UK Ag the same way, if anything their marketing strategy is to do down UK Ag which itself is enough to put me off. I have spent my entire life producing fruit and veg and don't have the same chip on my shoulder as most livestock producers seem to have about vegan stuff.
Can't beat a McD breckie with coffee anyway.
