The option is now available on the restaurant’s Build Your Own Breakfast menu and needless to say the responses did not meet the restaurant’s enthusiasm for plant-based products.
"Don’t you ever try to push that cr** in my direction. Stick to the basics that made your franchise a success," wrote another Facebook user.
