The vegan burgers at fast food chains aren't really there to attract individual vegans, they are there so that groups of friends who have 1 vegan in the mix don't immediately exclude that chain from their choices because one person can't eat there. And also for non-vegans who wanna maybe try it out of curiosity. My bff has been vegetarian for 8 years and for ages my whole friend group did not go to McDonalds bc of her, we'd pick other places that could please everyone.

[@oskarstaudte]

I can say your best friend is so lucky to have you all 🥺

[@TomMRF]

I agree with you, though in case of the Whopper I'd ask anyone, vegan or not, to just try it. Imo it is at least as good as the meat whopper, maybe even better.

As a life long vegetarian (not vegan) I've eaten a LOT of vegetable burgers, some good, some not so good and some really good ones, I'll have to agree that as far as commercially available to the general public options, the Whopper is by far the best. It really comes down to the toppings and I'm an "all the way" guy - everything on it and ketchup, mustard, mayo and pickles. Of course a good, sturdy bun makes all the difference as well. By the way, Ollie's southern accent is pretty damn good! (I'm a southern boy as well). You should come to Charleston, SC and take it all in - the geographical beauty of the rivers and the bays and the ocean (and beaches) along with the stunning architecture, culture, arts and, most importantly, the FOOD! You'll see - come and visit.

[@esther3518]

I am really torn when it comes to vegetarian or vegan substitutes for meat. I have been a vegetarian for 20 years now, and even if it now is more because of how the animals are treated, it started because I stopped liking meat. So I can't eat substitutes options that are supposed to be as similar to meat as possible, for example beyond burger. I rather have lenthil or halloumi burgers. But I am still very happy that there are options like these for the people who want to eat meat but can't, or choose not to. So I hope that this video show that there are vegan and vegetarian options which taste good and not like grass.

As a vegetarian, this is the first usable consumer advice I have ever gotten from this channel. And it was still ridiculous.

[@properjob2311]

McPlant has Beyond Meat burgers - they are tasty and very good impersonation of real burger meat. There is the advantage that it is not Soy based.

[@bongzilla4172]

Not even close.

[@hirgons]

Love you guys !

[@Seiferboi]

I've made a portabella mushroom burger once and it was so I could try it and it was pretty good!

[@NekohiKohi]

Alright, so McDonald's actually has another vegan main, the spicy veggie wrap is fully vegan. The burger king whopper IS NOT vegan, it is plant based but is cooked on the same grill as beef so it's covered in meat juices. They do have a vegan chicken burger though that is actually vegan. And then we come to kfc that has a vegan chicken burger but beware of the fries/chips, these are not vegan at kfc as they are cooked with chicken.

[@danifaja87]

It really depends on what type of vegan you are- some vegans don’t care about the product being cooked next to or on the same grill, so long as the actual meat is vegan.

The vegan police is here

[@gunjan1771]

please somebody stop Ollie from eating potatoes

[@Lovebug3003]

Dudes, vegetarian for 20 years - being able to grab a McDonald’s burger is such an amazingly happy thing!

[@justawhisperintheuniverse8257]

Out of these, I've tried the Impossible Whopper and the Shroom Burger. Both are good. One isn't really a burger replacement, though. But, the Impossible Whopper was good enough for me to have a few times in place of a regular Whopper, just because.

[@kayshaa24h]

The plant based whopper isn't properly vegan either as they cook it on their meat grill and then specify that on their menu that's why they don't really call it vegan.n

[@stinehald110]

as a vegan, i would really love if you guys did more vegan reviews!!

[@coraline1503]

this isnt a vegan channel! follow vegan channel pls!

[@stinehald110]

@@coraline1503 they literally did a video on a vegan food item, i should be allowed to express my desire for more similar videos in the future. veganism is everywhere, and you don’t have to be “a vegan channel” to do content on it

2:30 im levitating up to heaven slowly like Constantine till Ollie's face of disgust sent me back to the ground 🤣
