Beyond Meat Inc. said it struck deals to supply plant-based meat imitations to McDonald s, KFC and Pizza Hut, a victory in the company s effort to take meat alternatives into the American dining mainstream.
Under separate agreements announced Thursday, California-based Beyond said it would be the preferred supplier for a new plant-based burger from McDonald s Corp., while helping develop new plant-based menu items for Yum Brands Inc. chains KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell.

Starbucks put vegan beef made by Beyond Meat on the menu in the Middle East. The plant-based food appears on two sandwiches the coffee giant recently released as part of its partnership with Beyond Meat. But the sandwiches themselves contain dairy and are not vegan.
The Seattle-based chain launched the menu items earlier this month in response to a growing demand for plant-based protein alternatives in the region. The new additions are now available at approximately 190 outlets in Dubai. They’re also available in locations in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates and across Kuwait.
