Why America’s Favorite French Fries Are a Wake-up Call for McDonald’s

USA Today's recent Reader's Choice Awards named Del Taco as having the best fast-food fries, with their crinkle-cut shape being particularly popular among consumers. Not only are Del Taco's fries delicious, but they are also vegan-friendly, making them a standout option for plant-based diners. In contrast, McDonald's fries, which contain beef flavoring with milk, fail to cater to the growing demand for vegan options.

Other fast-food chains with vegan-friendly fries include A&W, Shake Shack, Five Guys, Golden Chick, and Chick-fil-A, all offering delicious options without any animal products. For those looking for more vegan fast-food options, Mr. Charlie's is a popular choice, often described as the "anti-McDonald's" with their tasty Frowny Fries earning rave reviews from customers. With a variety of vegan-friendly fast-food chains across the US, plant-based diners can enjoy crispy and flavorful fries without sacrificing their dietary preferences.
