McDonald's is reported linking up with the Vegetarian Society in Britain.
The Vegetarian endorsement comes after a year of negative publicity for the fast-food chain, which has been criticized for contributing to the childhood obesity crisis in Britain.
Plans call for the addition of Quorn burgers, yogurt, bagels and fruit toast to McDonald's menus, the London Guardian says.
The burger giant soon will be exhibiting the Vegetarian Society's familiar seedling logo alongside Big Macs, french fries and Chicken McNuggets, the report says.
The Vegetarian Society is said to have gone to great lengths to ensure the production of the new options did not involve meat in any way.

"There is no creator" - the Dalai Lama. These are words of common sense, and it tells me that "spirituality" has nothing in particular to do with a belief in the supernatural. But then, those of us who grew up in the seventies watching "Kung Fu" already knew that being a vegan, atheist who follows the path of the buddha can reach enlightenment.
All kidding aside, what does a vegetarian atheist have to say? Stick around and you'll find out! Politically I'm rather liberal, but I do like to listen to staunch conservative talk show host Michael (the 'Whiner') Savage so I'll probably be mentioning him from time to time in my weblogs. So for now, how about some talk of broccoli, carrots and peas? Recipe's anyone??

"As mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality."
