Today 400+ Hong Kong McDonalds Introduce Vegetarian Menu With Green Monday's Faux Meat!

13 October 2020 

There's some piping hot news just in from China! Green Monday Group has partnered with McDonald’s in Hong Kong to launch its first green menu to promote a plant-based lifestyle - a milestone in plant-based meat history! From today, the leading fast-food restaurant chain will serve dishes made from faux meat OmniPork Luncheon in over 280 McDonald’s outlets and 122 McCafé outlets in Hong Kong and Macau! The collaboration between two industry giants in Hong Kong is one for the history books and with Green Monday's faux meat now available at McDonald's eateries in Hong Kong, meatless meat might just become mainstream!

Speaking with VeganFirst, Green Monday Group's Founder and CEO David Yeung said,  “We are extremely excited to have OmniPork Luncheon available in this leading restaurant chain. With its extensive restaurant outlets in Hong Kong and Macau, we hope more customers can indulge without guilt and embrace green lifestyle anywhere and anytime.”

Luncheon meat is one of the most popular processed meats (pork) made in Asia but its potential health risks is a cause of concern among people. That's where OmniPork Luncheon comes in; it's plant-based pork alternative that just might be the substitute for canned pork that people are looking for. In HK and Macau, McDonald’s will exclusively offer a 15mm-thick cut OmniPork Luncheon in a range of its breakfast items, including the OmniPork Luncheon and Scrambled Egg Burger, the OmniPork Luncheon N’ Egg Twisty Pasta and the OmniPork Luncheon Breakfast Platter. The McCafé outlets will serve OmniPork Luncheon & Egg Cheesy Toastie and the Omnipork Luncheon Egg Mayo Ciabatta. 





Going by the developments in the alt-protein sector in China, the country is surely embracing meatless meats and Green Monday Group is making all the right moves. Less than a month back, Hong Kong-based Green Monday had raised Rs 514.85 crores in one of Asia's biggest funding rounds and David Yeung told VeganFirst that Green Monday Group might just enter India in the future. We can't wait for the day leading chains like McDonalds and others begin offering meals with plant-based meat in India as well!
