Foodservice Analyst Trish Caddy explains:
The biggest threat to
the popularity of burger and chicken is the trend of consumers cutting back on
eating meat. This is being driven by Younger Millennials who have either
adopted a full-time vegan lifestyle or are simply eating more plant-based
dishes. Operators now need to tackle this issue by offering consumers more
varied choice, including vegan burgers.
Earlier this year, a Forbes article highlighted a report by GlobalData that found a full 70 percent of the human population is either
reducing meat consumption or leaving meat off the table altogether.
And the generation often mislabeled as self-absorbed and lazy—the one just
after Gen X—is spearheading that worldwide dietary change!

This global shift away from animal products is
great news for the countless animals who suffer horribly at factory farms.
Cows, pigs, and chickens raised and killed for food are subjected to unthinkable cruelties: tiny,
filthy cages; burns and amputations; and merciless slaughter.
