<p>Roommates, <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/tsrfoodies-mcdonalds-introduces-limited-time-big-mac-collection-featuring-a-double-big-mac-with-four-burger-patties/">McDonald’s</a> has just announced its plans to fully embrace plant-based menu items. The popular fast-food chain is set to debut its forthcoming McPlant burger sometime in 2021.</p>
<p>“There are other plant-based burgers out there, but the McPlant delivers our iconic taste in a sink-your-teeth-in (and wipe-your-mouth) kind of <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/food/2020/11/09/mcplant-mcdonalds-plant-based-burger-crispy-chicken-sandwich/6187977002/">sandwich</a>. It’s made with a juicy, plant-based patty and served on a warm, sesame seed bun with all the classic toppings,” McDonald’s said in a statement.</p>
<p>According to reports, some restaurant markets will test the McPlant burger next year. Whether or not the vegan-friendly burger will arrive in the U.S. and a potential timeline was not immediately known.</p>
<p>In a move that could kick-start a new round of the Chicken Sandwich War, McDonald&#8217;s also confirmed its new Crispy Chicken Sandwich would arrive in the U.S. early next year during its virtual investor update Monday.</p>
<p>“McPlant is crafted exclusively for McDonald’s, by McDonald’s,” Ian Borden, McDonald&#8217;s international president, said at the investor meeting. “In the future, McPlant could extend across a line of plant-based products including burgers, chicken substitutes and breakfast sandwiches.”</p>
<p>The plant-based and chicken sandwich announcements were part of the company&#8217;s new growth strategy called “Accelerating the Arches,” which is a strategy that includes a commitment to the core menu.</p>
<p>McDonald&#8217;s is behind its competition on launching a plant-based burger in the U.S. In 2019, Burger King launched the Impossible Whopper using a plant-based patty from food startup Impossible Foods, maker of the Impossible patty.</p>
