India, where 40 percent of the population is vegetarian, just opened the first beefless McDonald's (vegetable nuggets!)

The Dutch vegetable burger is not McDonald's first stab at a beefless, patty-like product in a bun.

The menu does little to help differentiate the heavy beef, lamb, goat, chicken and seafood (but not pork) dishes of mostly Muslim Pakistan from the similar, but more varied, beefless, often vegetarian cooking of mostly Hindu India.
