There is an increasing demand for vegan and vegetarian products across the country.
You can already buy plant-based ‘meat’ in most main stream supermarkets without a trip to a speciality store.
And now, KFC have jumped on the vegan train, with the launch of their plant-based fried chicken meals.
The range is called ‘Beyond’ and diners can choose from nuggets or boneless meat-free chicken wings.
A KFC spokesperson said: ‘The new plant-based Beyond Fried Chicken offers the finger lickin’ good fried chicken flavour only KFC can deliver as a perfect choice for those searching for plant-based meat options on-the-go’
‘I think we’ve all heard ‘It tastes like chicken’ – well, our customers are going to be amazed and say, ‘It tastes like Kentucky Fried Chicken!’, said KFC president Kevin Hochman.
From Monday the innovative range will be available at the Cobb Parkway restaurant in Atlanta, US.
Let’s hope the pilot range is received well and the range is rolled out across stores internationally.
