: Has anyone noticed that McDonald has a lack to make veggie Burgers?

Well, yes they do, actually. Throughout Great Britain, McDonald's features the Veggie Deluxe, a patty made of grain and dried/rehydrated vegetables like corn and peas. It looks pretty awful, frankly. I believe they are test marketing it in the USA now...but don't look forward to it.

If you want a fastfood veggie burger, Burger King will soon be selling their popular (in the UK) Veggie Whopper, which is very good. I think the patty is made out of soy.

Question: does anybody else think it's extremely bizarre that the judge ruled that keeping animals out of natural light and fresh air for the extent of their lifetime is NOT CRUEL?
