FAN Editor

The McPlant is taking root across parts of the United States.

Late last year, McDonald’s began testing a new plant-based burger at eight locations across four states. Now, the fast-food chain is expanding the test to even more locations.

The McPlant will be added to menus at about 600 new restaurants, according to a posting on the McDonald’s website. Starting on February 14, customers will be able to try out the vegan-friendly burger at locations in the San Francisco Bay and Dallas-Fort Worth markets.

The McPlant will only be available in these new markets for a limited time, as supplies last.

McDonald’s wrote that it is expanding the test to these markets in order to help understand customer demand. When the company announced the initial eight-restaurant test last November, it stated that the test would also include information about how offering a plant-based item impacts its kitchens.

Beyond Meat developed the McPlant alongside McDonald’s. The burger is made from peas, rice, potatoes and other plant-based ingredients. It is served on a sesame seed bun with tomato, lettuce, pickles, onions, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and a slice of American cheese.

According to McDonald’s, the McPlant has the taste of “an iconic McDonald’s burger.”
