McDonald's To Test Its Vegan Burger At More Locations

McDonald's is rolling its plant-based burger, made in collaboration with Beyond Meat, to more locations in Canada.

The PLT sandwich which features Beyond Meat plant-based patty will be rolled out to 52 restaurants across Ontario from January 14 for 12 weeks. 

"The initial test of the P.L.T. allowed us to learn more about guest demand and how to integrate this new menu item into restaurant kitchen operations while delivering the P.L.T. to our guests with the level of quality and craveability they know and love from McDonald's," Jeff Anderson, a culinary innovation manager at McDonald's Canada, said in a statement to the press.

He added: "As a test and learn company, the McDonald's expansion of the P.L.T. into more restaurants in the Southwestern Ontario region will help us learn more about our guests' tastes while continuing to provide variety within our menu."
