A vegan diner has spoken of his disappointment after a strip of bacon fell out of his McDonald's McPlant burger as he was halfway through eating it. He said it happened as he was tucking into the second of two burgers ordered at a McDonald's restaurant on Wednesday.
The 37-year-old, who asked not to be named, said he received the burgers after ordering via the fast food giant's app. He said he assumed a piece of tomato had dropped out of the McPlant as he was eating it, later realising to his horror that it was a strip of meat.
A McPlant is made with a 'plant-based patty' that has been co-developed with Beyond Meat and certified by the Vegetarian Society as an ‘approved’ vegan product. But on this occasion the diner said his burger from the Sutton Coldfield restaurant came with bacon.
