Why not a McSpicy Paneer Burger or McAloo Tikki on the menu?: Canada’s Brampton
McDonald’s has a pretty great menu in India, and now a demand has been raised in Brampton with a petition that the fast-food giant bring its Indian menu to the city. Why not a McSpicy Paneer Burger or McAloo Tikki on the menu?
The reasoning behind why the petition was created was not just to get a taste of an international menu. It was also to get more balance on the McDonald’s menu that lacks vegetarian options in Canada.
“McDonald’s Canada has very limited options for vegetarians as compared to McDonald’s India,” reads the petition. “There are a variety of options that we would love to be introduced in Canadian McDonald’s menu which would cater to the vast majority of vegetarian population residing in Brampton.”
-
“We are creating this petition to request McDonald’s to introduce delicious Indian McDonald’s menu items in Brampton McDonald’s stores,” the petition reads.
-
“Requesting all the foodie people to help bring this change to help widen the food options for vegetarians and non-vegetarians.”
Brampton is known for its Indian food, especially the vegetarian options mainly for people following religious dietary traditions that limit or prohibit meat. In addition to the McSpicy Paneer Burger and McAloo Tikki, the petition is also trying to bring over Piri Piri Fries, the McVeggie Burger, Veg Pizza McPuff and the McSpicy Chicken Burger.
“We are creating this petition to request McDonald’s to introduce delicious Indian McDonald’s menu items in Brampton McDonald’s stores,” the petition reads. “Requesting all the foodie people to help bring this change to help widen the food options for vegetarians and non-vegetarians.”
Just under 2,000 people have already signed the petition so far.
