KFC to sell plant-based fried ‘chicken’ with Beyond meat

It’s Kentucky Fried “Chicken.”

The fast-food joint will soon have Colonel Sanders-approved meatless options with the arrival of plant-based fried chicken meals.

Through a pilot program, the chain will partner with Beyond Meat to test out vegetarian chicken at one of its Atlanta locations, the company said Monday.

“The new plant-based Beyond Fried Chicken offers the finger lickin’ good fried chicken flavor only KFC can deliver as a perfect choice for those searching for plant-based meat options on-the-go,” KFC said.

something is up- something BIG is up- why are all these fast food places suddenly pushing meatless meat? Pay attention to the number of stories about eating bugs and maggots, too. The global elite is trying to condition you into believing that meat is bad- meanwhile, you know full well that they will not give up on steak.

More likely it the fact that there are millions of vegetarians, and the number is growing. They want a piece of that market. Capitalism not Conspiracy

Why, if you're vegan, would you even step foot into a business whose primary product is meat?

When are we going to start seeing lawsuits that people are "threatened" or feel "unsafe" because of their friendly, neighborhood KFC?

Their products have gone downhill so badly over the years I can't wait to see how that works.

They can take all the wilting veggies to gone for moldy musty bag salads and whittled carrots and toss it in with some bean protein and process it with chemicals just like meat and sell it at the same or even a premium price. Put some chemically condiments on them with a MSG pickle and WALAH you have any other fast food delicacy. Popeye's KFC Chic-Fil-A whatever if your obsessed with eating out perhaps it spares your conscience your waistline borderline obesity and diabetes.

Doubt it, I think most fast food protein has been filled with fillers such as soy and other meatless products for years!! These companies are trying to come clean before whistle blowers beat them to it.
