Vegetarian Star

Goodbye Big Macs with special sauce and hello McAloo Tikki with Chutney. The fast food giant McDonald’s has announced it’s opening its first ever all vegetarian restaurant.

“It will be the first time we have opened a vegetarian restaurant in the world,” a spokesman for McDonald’s in northern India, Rajesh Kumar Maini, told AFP.

The meatless McDonanld’s will be located near the Golden Temple in the Sikh holy city of Amritsar in northern India, where much of the population abstains from meat for religious purposes.

Normally you’d never see McDonald’s get any love from a vegetarian website, but this is something worth giving a second glance.

McDonald’s in India, where much of the population is Hindu, normally doesn’t serve beef, but vegetarian and chicken options instead.

One such sandwich that’s popular is the McAloo Tikki, a fried breaded potato and peas patty, that can be cooked in a separate kitchen from the meat items, like all vegetarian fare at the franchises in the country can.

McAloo Tikki just happens to be the highest grossing item at the franchises in India.

Now, if only we can convince them to cut the chicken from the menu as well.

Then, we’d really be lovin’ it!
