McVegan burger

Unlike the vegetarian burger that Swedish McDonald's have been offering for years, the McVegan is no unappetizing, sub-par alternative to meat. Instead, Mickey D's hired specialized staff this time to find just the right ingredients for a menu item that would satisfy anybody – not just the strict vegans.

The result is a soy-based patty complemented by lettuce, onion, tomato, pickles, and McFeast sauce, which is (of course) entirely vegan friendly. And according to NPR, it's garnering mostly rave reviews, from people of all ages and diet schemes.
