DH and I tried the McPlant burger, and both of us thought of Soylent Green

It tastes OK and I have no reason to think that there is anything untoward in it, but I don't know what it's made of. I think that film ruined me for anything that is pretending to be something else, like soy meat substitute or Quorn. I just find it quite suspicious.

Oh man, don't say that, I have been looking forward to trying them!

It is 2022, the year the film was set, so maybe your hunch isn't wrong.... ConfusedGrin

I am vegan and the McDonald’s McPlant burger is delicious!!!! I am not a fan of fast food but was stuck in the house after travelling and waiting for PCR results, so (reluctantly) ordered McDonalds. Will definitely order again.

The burger itself is ok, if a bit of a too-smooth texture. I don't like McDonald's buns though, they taste very sweet to me. It's probably the best of the bunch there. I used to like the chicken salads that they started to do a couple of years ago but after a few months the quality of the salad went downhill.

The DC wanted McDs this evening so DH went to get it, but he made a side trip to KFC so that I could have a Zinger instead. He's a prince among men. Grin

Food Unwrapped did a great veggie episode in which they visited beyond burger factory. I was impressed by the ingredients, pea protein for main content, seeds oil for the fats and red apples to give the bloody look. Its worth a watch.
