NATIONAL DAY OF ACTION ASKS APPLEBEE’S TO ADD PLANT-BASED MENU OPTIONS TO COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE AND EXTINCTION

Yesterday, people gathered to ask Applebee’s to add plant-based entrées to all of its menus nationwide. OMD and the Center for Biological Diversity hosted events at locations in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York and Clearwater to target the restaurant to make a change on behalf of climate health and biodiversity.

“Applebee’s has an opportunity to show real leadership and concern for the health of customers and communities by adding plant-based options on its menu. At a time when consumer taste buds are changing–– 22% of consumers are limiting meat, poultry, or seafood, according to a recent study–– they can also take advantage of the growing demand for plant-based foods,” said Ashley Schaeffer Yildiz, OMD Campaign Manager.
