Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I agree that thy are making very small steps in the right direction, and diversity is a good thing, and also that meeting every diets requirements to avoid segregation is good.. However, a lot of veans/vegetarians are enviromentalists and would not frequent such harmful establishments.

Hello All, I do agree that there is something to say about visibility for these products in "mainstream" eating haunts, but I don't think KFC or BK are out for that. It is important I think, to push for serious integration into these places if (big if) we can get past the contradiction of the restaurant in the first place. Part of being Vegan or Vegetarian is the commitment to one's own body, but there is also the commitment to society...we need to change how we do food. If we isolate ourselves how will that ever happen? I don't know...just my two cents in thought change...

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 unfortunately, so much of it isn't "vegan", tho they'll market it as that and, they get the product from the same rube goldbergian type supply system in which they get everything else meh...everyone is different.... Blue Rose Jul 24, 2008 11:34 AM Re: Re: Is KFC Canada’s Vegan Sandwich Not Truly Vegan? My two cents' worth: it's supply and demand. If we prove to the fast food industry that veggie options sell, there will not only be more of them but perhaps someone will get the bright idea of having a vegan/vegetarian fast food joint. Seriously. Make it mainstream. Sell it on losing weight or whatever the public will buy, and if they buy it it's more for us and less animals that particular industry is abusing and slaughtering.
