: I was recently in England and noticed that Mac outlets have vegetarian
: burgers. Being a vegetarian, I tried one and found it really really good.
: My quetion is, why aren't you having the same in U.S. markets.I don't understand why anyone would buy a veggie burger from McDonald's
If they are vegetarians for health reasons then I would have thought that
the idea of eating anything from the center of junk food culture would be
considered unwise.If they are vegetarian for ethical reasons then giving McMurders any money
would be subsidising the meat eaters and funding the biggest murders of animals
in the world.Of course I understand that it is a good thing to make it easy and more
convenient to get vegetarian food, and therefore perhaps a worthy campaign
[getting McDonald's to provide vegetarian food] but that doesn't mean that
it is a good thing to actualy buy from them.A bit of a dilemma I think...
opinions?
