McDonald's Introduce New Item; Vegetarians Celebrate

McDonald's are stepping up their game and they're not only impressing meat-eaters but also vegetarians.

There's a new burger on the market and it's set to change every vegetarians ordering style. No more 'hamburger without the meat' business.

The Macca's gods have smiled down on the vegetarian population offering up the new Veggie Crunch Burger. 

The burger is made up of seven types of vegetables, including green peas, carrots, green beans and red bell peppers.

The deep-fried vegetable patty is then topped with sweet chilli sauce, lettuce and cucumber slices on a white sesame seed bun. It's fried in the same oil used to cook the apple pies, to ensure it doesn't come into contact with any meat products.

The bugers have rolled out throughout Singapore but we might have to wait for a bit before seeing them hit NZ. McDonald's is currently trialling the burgers in five stores to see how they fare. 

A spokesperson for McDonald’s said veggie burgers previously haven't stuck on the menu for long because of the lack of demand.

“We still offer our customers a vegetarian option with Create Your Taste where you can choose from a range of ingredients such as grilled halloumi, egg, guacamole and grilled pineapple,” he said.
