Vegan Meals From KFC?
PETA has been on KFC for a while about their slaughterhouse practices, and apparently, the organization’s pressure is working! In a recent agreement with 461 KFC franchises, PETA has announced that KFC will begin selling unchicken products! While many of KFC’s franchises are not yet ready to take action, the fact that PETA has gotten 461 stores to begin to offer vegan products is amazing.
In my humble opinion, it will be a smart business move for KFC in addition to being the right thing to do. As more people become health and environmentally conscious, more people are switching to the veggie lifestyle. I’ve been vegetarian for almost 15 years, and I’ve seen the market change to be far more veggie-friendly in my time. The fast food industry still has a long way to go in capturing the vegetarian market, and it’s impressive that a company with such a long, devastating record on animal rights and the environment is possibly going to be a leader on this issue.
