I traveled to India last year for a business trip. Indian McD has apparently had vegetarian burger options for decades, including the McVeggie (vegetable patty), McSpicy Paneer (cottage cheese patty) and McAloo Tikki (potato-based patty).
The Indian population is about 40% vegetarian, so this makes sense. Personally, I think the vegetarian burgers tasted incredible, and I wish we had them here.
- thehappypm 6y agoI went to India last year and found the vegetarian burgers awful. I think the American palate requires a little bit of a different taste than the Indian.
- notRobot 6y agoThat's definitely possible, yeah. I already didn't eat much meat (where I live people aren't as crazy about meat as they often are in the US) and was used to salads and veggie sandwiches and stuff for meals. But I agree, if they choose to bring these offerings to other countries, they're going to have to adjust the recipes, as I'm sure they will.
- y2bd 6y agoAs someone who pretty much only orders vegetarian when doing Indian takeout, these sound amazing.
- devxpy 6y agoI thought this post was about plant based chicken substitutes which seem far from reach here in India
