Navigating fast food on a vegan diet can be challenging due to hidden animal products. An example is McDonald's apple pie, which contains no animal ingredients but is cooked in shared oil with meat products, raising concerns for strict vegans. While McDonald's has made strides in offering vegan options in other countries, like the UK, where a full vegan menu exists, the availability of such items is scarce in the U.S. This discrepancy emphasizes the need for vigilance when seeking vegan choices in fast-food settings.
While there are no animal products in McDonald's apple pie, the cooking oil may have been used for frying chicken and fish, making it unsuitable for strict vegans.
McDonald's has introduced vegan options globally, particularly in the UK, where offerings include the McPlant burger and vegan-friendly fries, but these options are limited in the US.
