McDonald's Intransigence on the Plant-Based Burger

In today's SF Chronicle, Kevin Fisher-Paulson, the charming (but not vegetarian or vegan) columnist, mentions that McDonald's does not have a vegetarian alternative to a Bic Mac, so he pays $6.00 for three pieces of bread with lettuce and cheese for his son.

In the same newspaper today there's a letter from a Karl Gustaffson of Half Moon Bay saying "Keep it real, KFC."    Apparently there was a blurb in the Business section about this yesterday, saying that Kentucky Fried Chicken is testing plant-based nuggets and boneless sings. 

Karl Gusaffson says, "Colonel Sander' suit, hair and goatee are white, the color of chicken meat--not green, the color of plants. Count me as someone who will not be lining up to try this vegan take on fried chicken."

Do you think he's making fun of people who think that way?

As for McDonald's refusal to have a plant-based burger, what's wrong with them?
