The Mos Plant-Based Green Burger is a figuratively and literally green menu item from the QSR brand in Japan that will offer patrons a tasty, meat-free way to satisfy their hunger.
The burger is free from meat, fish, dairy products, eggs and any other animal-based ingredients to make it suitable for consumers who lead a vegan lifestyle. The patty is crafted with a base of soybeans along with cabbage and konnyaku, which is a traditional Japanese yam gelatin. The bun has a light green profile that's achieved using spinach puree that also works to give it a natural sweetness.
The Mos Plant-Based Green Burger is priced at 538 yen ($5) and is available now at select locations with expanded availability in Japan potentially rolling out in May.
