Some people seem a little confused as to what a vegan is. A vegan is a person who does not eat, wear or use anything that comes from an animal.
To be a vegan, you do not need only to exist on a wholefood plant based diet. You can eat vegan junk. Like crisps, chips, Oreos, deep fried food, veggie burgers, faux steak bakes etc.
Some people also seem confused about the op being a vegan and yet going to McDonald’s. why would she go there? Why would she support a business that also sells meat and dairy products. As pointed out, that would be nearly every supermarket, coffee place, fast food outlet, petrol station and restaurant in the uk. Where else would she shop and eat? She has to eat funnily enough! She has to buy groceries, toiletries, fuel. Where else would she get them from? Someone mentioned whole foods, even that still sells animal products!
Also some mention why would you want fake meat, a burger, a sausage, etc? Well why not? I’m sure the op and lots of other vegans, enjoyed the taste and texture of a chicken burger from kfc, but not the cruelty or death. So if they can have something that tastes like something they enjoy, but not cause any cruelty then why not?
Op, I’ve not tried the ‘new’ offerings from McDonald’s, I do like the kids meal wrap they offer though. I’m surprised at the lack of options from them, it’s not that hard to buy some impossible style burgers and violife slices.
