mcdonalds salad burgers

I never used to eat fast foods like McDonald’s. In fact I hated them. But then my non-vege partner kept wanting to go there, and while I knew they cooked their fries now in canola oil or some other veggie friendly oil, I was still a bit dubious, as someone told me they still have beef in them somehow. I have since found no evidence of this though and have eaten a few fries. I still need to do some more research because hidden animal ingredients are not cool!

One thing that is not on the menu at McD’s (where I live at least) is their salad burger. Burger King do one too which has onion rings in it and is quite tasty but more on that later.

It’s quite cheap, same price as mcchicken I think, and has lettuce tomato, cheese and mayo generally. I am a bit worried about the cheese containing animal rennet but have not found any evidence yet that they contain this and would probably cease to eat them if they did. I think they’re delicious and while obviously not vegan, if you are going somewhere with a non-veggie at least there is something you can order. You could order it without mayo and cheese to make it more vegan (though i have no idea what the bread contains in terms of dairy/egg) though it probably would make it kind of boring!The other night though they put red onion and carrots in there too which I’ve never had before so maybe you could ask them to do that
