Taco Bell just added three new vegetarian entrees to their menu:
- The cheese roll-up is a tubular quesadilla
- The triple-layer nachos have beans, red sauce, and nacho sauce
- The caramel apple empanadas are McDonald’s apple pies in disguise
No, it’s not healthy. But it’s veg. And now there’s a major fast food chain with enough vegetarian options to actually give us a choice of what to eat. I think that’s worth applauding, even if it’s all junk!

I got a laugh out of this one. Unlike most restaurants, which don’t even mention the word, “vegetarian” on their menus, McDonald’s actually has a special FAQ for vegetarians on their site! It basically says “you’re on your own.” But at least they address the issue, and at least they’re honest…

Kids love McDonalds. I’m not sure why, but every kid seems to love the idea of it at least. Even my veggie kids jump at the chance to go!
So what can they eat? Well, like so many other places, breakfast is easiest. And it just so happens that the Golden Arches houses an amazing breakfast deal: scrambled eggs!
See, they’ll sell you just eggs for a buck, and this is plenty for my kids. Add a massive orange juice (they only come in “massive” these days) and you have a pretty healthy veggie meal for a couple of bucks. The eggs are on the register but not the menu, by the way.
It’s too bad Mickey-D’s chooses to ruin their own “healthy” choices like apples and yogurt with syrup and caramel, but at least I don’t have to deny my kids the Arches.
Now if only there was a lunch or dinner option other than cheeseburger with no burger!
