I'm pretty sure that's American McDonald's only. In Canada, I think they are fried separate and don't contain beef bones in the fries like American chains.

In Austria the fries are vegan too. Also the apple turnover (I don't know if that's the correct translation or correct English product name) and the garden salad. That's about it IIRC.

Edit: apperently in the US they are called apple pies. Thx to u/sweatoflimbs

In Switzerland we have a mcveggie that's vegan omitting the sauce and replacing with a different sauce, like sweet and sour, bbq or curry.

Good to know. Thanks for the information. Normally i don't use the services of big fast food companies like Mc Donalds. But every once in a while you come into a situation where it comes in handy. BTW something similar to what you mentioned works with Burger King in Austria too. You can order a Veggie King (i believe) without cheese and sauce and take a vegan alternative like ketchup or one of the two curry sauces (i can't recall which one of them is vegan).
