fast food

[harvestl]

So I've heard that Taco Bell's beans are vegan, and that the original Pizza Hut crust and sauce are vegan, but do you trust that at all?  Are there any places that you trust to get french fries at?  Sometimes I just have to have something fried, but I just don't trust these places.  Help please??

If I am really craving french fries I buy frozen ones from my local grocery. That way I can tell what the ingredients are and I don't support fast food places in the process.

Yeah, I get my french fry fix at home, too. It's cheaper, better, and healthier.

Taco Bell has a number of vegan options. The beans are vegan, and if you order things 'fresco style,' they omit the cheese and sour cream and add a salsa. The guacamole used to contain gelatin and sour cream, but is now vegan. The tortillas are vegan, according to Vegetarian Journal a few months back. Chipotle's tortillas, black beans, rice, guacamole and salsas are vegan. Pizza Hut's hand tossed and pan crust have dairy, I believe the thin crust is vegan. The sauce might be. Subway's Veg Delite sandwich on Italian Bread, sans mayo and cheese is vegan. Burger King fries are ostensibly vegan and are SUPPOSED to be cooked in seperate oil from the meat items. Papa John's, Mountain Mike's and Little Caesar's have pizzas that are vegetarian if ordered without cheese

Not according to the article on vegan quick service food I read in Vegetarian Journal a couple of months ago. And they are, as I said, supposed to be cooked in seperate oil. But that may or may not actually play out in a busy restaurant.

I don't think anything else at Taco Bell is fried, only the fiesta potatoes and the cinnamon thingies, both of which contains no animal products.

i just find locally owned places honestly. i'd rather support them anyway.

or i go to the fish and chip shop where half of my friends work and get them to give me fries. (i know there's no cross-contamination, plus they have a tasty potato-based curry gravy. yummmm)

Pizza Hut's original dough is not vegan.

I love french fries from New York Fries. They make them from fresh cut potatoes right in front of you when you order them. No additives, and they are fried in vegetable oil that isn't used for frying anything else.
