McDonald’s Vegan Options<\/h2>\n

Eating at this fast-food chain probably isn’t the healthiest choice, but sometimes the choices are limited. For the plant-based eaters out there who need a quick bite while on a road trip, here are all of the current McDonald’s Vegan Options<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

Jump To Vegan McDonald’s Guide<\/span> <\/strong> <\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n

At first, it seemed promising that McDonald’s had an official list of vegetarian and vegan menu items, but after checking out this page<\/a> on their website, there wasn’t a whole lot of information.<\/p>\n

Because the fast-food chain doesn’t have an official list of vegan items, you have to use their allergen menu to find all of the vegan options at McDonald’s.<\/p>\n

This resource should provide enough information to figure out what is plant-based, but sometimes there are some sneaky non-vegan ingredients \u2014 like honey \u2014 that won’t be mentioned in this resource.<\/p>\n

When this happens, there are two more things you can do to tell if a McDonald’s menu item is vegan.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Find the menu item on the McDonald’s website and click on “view ingredients & allergens.” Here you can see a complete list of ingredients so you can determine if it’s vegan.<\/li>\n
  2. Contact McDonald’s<\/a> directly. If you can’t find the answer, you can always reach out to customer service with questions about ingredients or cross-contamination.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    McDonald’s Allergen Menu<\/h3>\n

    McDonald’s has two different allergen menus you can explore: the interactive allergen menu and the PDF version.<\/p>\n

    The interactive allergen menu<\/a> is great for quickly finding the menu item you’re looking for. All you have to do is start typing a product and then click on it when you see it in the drop-down. The allergens will be listed after you select the product.<\/p>\n

    With the PDF version<\/a> of the allergen menu, you can see all of the products at once, but you have to search around to find the product you’re looking for.<\/p>\n

    The McDonald’s allergen guides are helpful in eliminating non-vegan options from the menu, but you can’t be sure that any products are vegan with these resources alone.<\/p>\n

    Non-Vegan McDonald’s menu items will contain these allergens:<\/p>\n
