McDonalds Canada is launching a new version of plant-based hamburgers, this time not a repeat of the previous trial with Beyond Meat’s product.
The new version is called McVeggie sandwich and the nation-wide launch follows trial in April and March.
The company said this sandwich has been designed specifically for Canada, featuring carrots, green beans, zucchini, peas, soybeans, broccoli and corn. It is served with shredded lettuce and a choice of creamy or spicy habanero sauce on a toasted sesame seed bun.
"The McVeggie isn't just a sandwich, it's a celebration of bold flavor and our commitment to serving all guests and their evolving tastes,” said Francesca Cardarelli, the company’s chief marketing officer. “This launch reflects McDonald's dedication to creating iconic moments with crave-worthy menu items."
