McDonald's McPlant Is Finally Arriving in the U.S.

Today, McDonald’s has announced plans to enter the plant-based burger battle alone with the forthcoming McPlant—a beefless burger made exclusively for the chain by a supplier. "We're always testing new items and flavors, and this particular test will help us understand how offering a burger with a plant-based patty impacts the kitchens in our restaurants,"

I think I will pass on the McPlant......"where's the meat?" .....life in 2021

Don't fall for that trick!

Ever here of the movie "Soylent Green"???

Ironic that it takes place in 2022......or is it???

 

I remember seeing "Soylent Green" in the early 1970's when I was in the military. Charlton Heston played the detective that found out they were using human bodies to produce Soylent Green foods. I don't remember what year in the future it took place. It seemed like a good movie for the time.

 

What the. Pass for me to..

 

Might as well be the McPlastic.
I ain't eatin it.

 

And why do they insist on calling it a burger??
It ain't a friggin burger! Don't call that $hit a burger to try to convince me its a burger. It's a salad on a roll.

 

Ingredients for hamburger patty: 100% Pure USDA Inspected Beef; No Fillers, No Extenders. Prepared With Grill Seasoning (Salt, Black Pepper)

Ingredients for plant based patty: Water, pea protein*, expeller-pressed canola oil, refined coconut oil, rice protein, natural flavors, dried yeast, cocoa butter, methylcellulose, and less than 1% of potato starch, salt, potassium chloride, beet juice color, apple extract, pomegranate concentrate, sunflower lecithin, vinegar, lemon juice concentrate, vitamins and minerals (zinc sulfate, niacinamide [vitamin B3], pyridoxine hydrochloride [vitamin B6], cyanocobalamin [vitamin B12], calcium pantothenate).

Well, I would never have thought coconut oil - which makes this an automatic NO for me. I love coconut but developed allergies to it and I don't need more hospital visits.

Interestingly, they then go on to show: Peas are legumes. People with severe allergies to legumes like peanuts should be cautious when introducing pea protein into their diet because of the possibility of a pea allergy. Contains no peanuts or tree nuts.

Okay, most people think of tree nuts as pecans, almonds, walnuts etc. But they never show coconut in the allergen section.

So Tim...How do you really feel!

 

Let the cow eat the plants and we can eat the cow!

 

A plant base patty does not sound very appetizing when you brake it down to the basic ingredients! It kind of makes you sick to your stomach.

 

Otherwise known as the McChits...

 

Who even eats McDonald's?

 

I try to steer clear of fast food, but i will if I'm in a hurry or on the road. So 3-4 times a year...

 

You have to ask yourself if McDonalds are going to use imitation cheese to go on their imitation cheeseburger?
