Vegan food varieties are only growing in popularity amongst consumers worldwide who are opting for plant-based diets for health and/or environmental reasons, so the McDonald's Sweden vegan Happy Meal has been unveiled with this in mind.
The new offering from the Swedish branch of the QSR brand aims to offer kids a meat-free option that is delicious, savory and more nutritious for parents to appreciate. The meal includes the new McFalafel that is made with a blend of chickpeas and seasonings along with two choices of carrots, apples or small fries and a beverage of organic milk, apple juice, orange juice or a small soda.
