Vegetarian fast-food restaurants

[Guest guest]

I'm trying to get some ideas for vegetarian (fully vegetarian or vegan,

not just vegetarian-friendly) fast-food restaurants that have no overall

ethnic slant. What are the particular challenges or issues that face

vegetarian fast-food restaurants?

 

* Do vegetarian fast-food restaurants lean toward greasy food (the

burgers & fries paradigm)?

 

* Will vegetarians eat in a vegetarian fast-food restaurant?

 

* How fast does fast food have to be?

 

* Other thoughts?

 

 

Here are some links:
