Vegetarian Fast Food Facts

Most fast-food restaurants now offer vegetarian options on their menus. However, they may not be marked as such. The fact is that unfortunately, Vegetarian specific food doesn't sell as well as the common beef burgers, chicken nuggets etc. However, the situation is improving immensely.

If anybody lives in a country other than the UK we will be most grateful if you contact us and explain the vegetarian options available to you.

KFC used to sell what they called a Vegetarian Twister which was wrapped in a tortilla and was exceptionally nice. However, it turned out hat this wasn't actually suitable for Vegetarians and was therefore dropped from the menu.

McDonald's

Grilled Veggie MeltMcDonald's have recently changed their vegetarian option. They used to have a standard veggie burger called Veggie Deluxe but since they introduced Salad's Plus, they have now introduced the Quorn Premiere. Also available are salads. Vegetarians can choose the Garden Salad instead of fries. Extensive vegetarian and allergy lists are available on their website. No kid's vegetarian options are yet available.
Grilled Veggie Melt is approved by the Vegetarian Society which simply means that it's food that's absolutely great for a vegetarian!

Burger King

The BK Veggie BurgerBurger King have successfully had vegetarian products for some time now. Vegetarians have two options to choose from. There is the Veggie Burger (which is approved by the vegetarian society) and the Bean Burger. Also available are salads very similar to McDonalds (but I believe Burger King were the first to introduce them). Extensive vegetarian and allergy lists are available on their website. A kid's vegetarian option IS available.
The BK Veggie Burger is a delicious blend of garden-fresh vegetables, whole grains and spices. It's topped with fresh letuce, red ripe tomatoes, ketchup and creamy mayonnaise- all on a sesome seed bun. Your mum always told you to eat your veggies.
