The vegan options at McDonalds in the states are so sad compared to Europe.
It’s so interesting to me how American companies choose to be more advanced/progressive in other countries.

McDonald's is a business and they adjust their way of working in each country both to comply with local legislation and also with local tastes and opinions in order to be competitive. For instance, here in Norway McDonald's advertising makes a big deal of pointing out that all the beef they use is produced in Norway. The reason for this is simply that Norwegians are sceptical about the quality of imported meat.

Norske kvalitetsråvarer og bærekraftig verdikjede
I McDonald's er vi stolte av å støtte den norske bonden og norsk kvalitetsmat, derfor kommer mesteparten av våre råvarer fra norske bønder. Vi bruker for eksempel kun 100 % norsk storfekjøtt, norsk kylling, økologiske egg, poteter og løk – og norsk salat, når sesongen tillater det.
