Vegetarian McDonald's? Yes, but not here...

Two meatless McDonald’s are slated to open in India in 2012, according to Time magazine: the first all-vegetarian sites in McDonald's 57-year lifespan (and about 33,000 restaurants worldwide). One is near Amritsar, a Sikh center of worship, and the other at Vaishno Devi cave shrine, a Hindu attraction. One dish offered: a fried potato patty in the McAloo Tikki burger. Beef and pork aren't big sellers in India, the report said (cows are sacred to Hindus and pigs are considered unclean by Muslims) - but there is a chicken-based "Maharaja Mac."

Why not in the US??? It would make good business sense! The number of vegans has doubled in the US in less than 3 years. Here are two uplifting videos to help everyone understand why so many people are making this life affirming choice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKr4HZ7ukSE and http://www.veganvideo.org/.
