McDonald’s France Finally Goes Vegan, Offering Veggie McPlant Nuggets With Beyond Chicken

McDonald’s France is introducing vegan nuggets made from Beyond Meat, its first plant-based option, offered at the same price as conventional chicken. The new Veggie McPlant Nuggets will be available in four-, six-, nine-, and 20-piece servings, as well as part of various meal deals, with the aim of attracting vegans and flexitarians looking to diversify their protein intake.

This move by McDonald’s comes as France’s dietary habits are changing, with an increasing number of consumers reducing their meat intake. The partnership between McDonald’s and Beyond Meat has been successful in Europe, with the vegan McNuggets extending their collaboration to France, where plant-based options are becoming increasingly popular amidst a resurgent plant-based industry in the country.
