[QUOTE="slackjawedyokel, post: 7952770, member: 34254"] Sorry- I haven’t read the whole thread. I don’t see that McDonald’s is going to go all-plant anytime soon. You just have to look at the share prices of a couple of the big players in the synthetic animal products market to see that confidence in this type of stuff is not high: [ATTACH type="full"]1012253[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]1012252[/ATTACH] Historically McDs has not offered much in the way of vegetarian options - not sure about in the UK but in the USA even the chips aren’t suitable for vegetarians!! McDs is also very family oriented; if Jemima has decided she’s vegan this week then the chain loses out in a whole family worth of sales. On top of this, I’d hazard a guess that planty options are cheaper for McDs to source (due to their very cheap ingredients) than similar meat options, yet they will be presented as premium products so McDs is quids in. It’s always the same; don’t listen to what you’re being told, think about what the money’s doing! [/QUOTE]
