Yes, McPlant has been accredited as vegan by the Vegetarian Society.

Pea protein is one of the main ingredients in the patty, along with other quality ingredients which are turned into a great tasting meat alternative

 The main ingredients are coconut oil and pea protein. It’s a vegan slice that melts and tastes great. 

McPlant is cooked separately from other McDonald’s burgers and sandwiches, using dedicated equipment to ensure it doesn’t come into contact with meat products.

The plant based patty is cooked in an oven, not on the grill. While meat products are also cooked in the oven, this will not be at the same time or using the same equipment as McPlant. McPlant uses specific equipment, including oven trays and tongs, so it will not come into contact with meat products, and the ovens and equipment are cleaned regularly.

McPlant does not include any ingredients within the recipe that contain milk. Our products are prepared with care and we have procedures and controls in place throughout our supply chain and in our restaurants to ensure any risk of milk cross-contamination is minimised. However, due to the nature of our kitchens we cannot guarantee any product is allergen free. If you have an allergy please check out our allergen information in our nutrition calculator here.

We have other vegan items on our menu including Veggie Dippers, the Spicy Veggie Wrap, fries and some drinks- look out for the Vegetarian Society's vegan logo.

McPlant will be available in all restaurants from 5th January 2022. Find your local restaurant here.
