【素食汉堡热潮风靡全球[思考]肯德基表示有兴趣开拓本土市场，向美国人民推出素肉炸鸡[笑而不语]】Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) might soon be the next big global fast-food chain next to McDonald's and Chick-fil-A to jump on the vegan protein train, as a company spokesperson recently said that it's keeping an eye on the long-term benefits of plant-based meat alternatives, and will test out a menu item featuring the protein if it's right for the market. In a statement, a spokesperson said that "KFC U.S. has no plans to test plant-based meat or meat alternatives at this time," but added that "we're aware it's a growing industry, and we are watching this trend closely to learn as much as we can."
