In-N-Out Burger Petitioned To Add Vegetarian Option
In-N-Out is known for its great burgers, but one Los Angeles resident wants the famous fast food chair to let vegetarians in on the fun too.
Ari Solomon has started a petition at Change.org that asks the chain to offer a vegetarian option in addition to their all-beef burgers. The petition also comes as In-N-Out faces some bad press, with a recent hidden camera investigation finding that some of the chain’s beef suppliers were abusing their animals, The Huffington Post noted.
The company cut ties with the supplier, but Solomon saw the change as an opportunity to get In-N-Out to change its menu to accommodate more diners.
Solomon said:
In-N-Out did the right thing and said they would no longer buy from this supplier, but it’s the 21st century and I think it’s high time they offer a veggie burger option for customers who don’t want to eat animals or just want a little diversity with an environmentally-friendly, healthier option once in a while.I know In-N-Out prides itself on being ahead of the other fast food outlets, so how amazing would it be if vegans and vegetarians from students to A-list celebs and everyone in between could go enjoy a burger?
The petition to In-N-Out is a big personal to Solomon as well. He told CBS Los Angeles that after becoming a vegan six years ago he misses his trips to the fast food chain famous for its “animal style” menu items.
“At the time I went vegan, I didn’t think about it,” Solomon said. “Veggie burgers have come such a long way, so I just figured, if anyone can make a fantastic, out-of-this-world veggie burger, its In-N-Out. I would love to see what their take on veggie burgers would be.”

Delicious vegan food is why the number of vegans has doubled in less than 3 years. Here are two uplifting videos that will help people understand just some of the implications of this lifestyle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKr4HZ7ukSE and http://www.veganvideo.org.

Vegan food tastes… okay, I guess, but it feels disgusting. Meat! Meat! Meat!
Sep 2, 2012

Vegans have their own place to eat, it's called the great outdoors. All sorts of grass and plant life to munch on.

If you want to eat at In n Out then eat beef. This is America if that is all they want to serve get over youself and go eat some grass that an animal has pissed or shit on!

Eat and Jack in the box with all their circus food, IN-N-Out is for 3 things hamburgers,fries and shakes thats what makes them so good to focus on the good stuff!
Sep 2, 2012
ooh man I miss having a 4X4 animal style…
Sep 2, 2012
Animal style all the way!!! Its what makes California worth coming back to!

They would have to add separate cookers to keep the vegan from the carny menus. That would mean prices would go up. just so a vegan can come by every once in a blue moon? no way!

Do your research! In-N-Out already offers a grilled cheese for vegetarians and a full veggie burger for vegans! Just ask for it!

McD if I remember tried veggie burger for a spell. It didn't sell so they discontinued.
Sep 2, 2012
yeah, I knew the first one but I dont consider a cheese sammich a vegetarian meal. And I never had to nor wanted to know let alone ask for a vegan burger from In n Out. So now the dude has his answer without having to rile us carnys up!

I was a vegetarian for almost a decade and I did what Paul said.
Sep 2, 2012
so, Mark, is that vegan "burger" any good? You're the only one I know who's had it
Sep 3, 2012
So let's find a vegan restaurant and petition them for steak and chicken nuggets!
Sep 3, 2012
agree

When I didn't eat meat, and was @ a fast food place I got a Burger w/no meat… it's a hamburger restaurant, why should they cater to non meat eaters???
Sep 3, 2012
iT's akin to having an Italian restaurant offer greek food. In N Out is noed for the simplicity of their menu. That's the beauty of the place.

Cheese isn't really a "Vegan" option… How many fields have you seen growing Cheese plants??? Sure, in MN, and I'm sure other places, there's an edible plant that grows wild called "Cheese-Weed." It's good, I used to eat it all the time… But it tastes NOTHING like cheese. Or, to word it another way… How many SALADS have you ever seen come out of a cow, goat, or other animal's udder??? THAT'S where CHEESE comes from… Cheese is NOT a vegetable.

I think Solomon should open his own vegan restaurant and stop annoying the beef ones.
