A list of examples of sustainable initiatives in the fast food industry. From details like sustainable ketchup from The Ketchup Project to fast-food chains that have built their identity around sustainability like HoneyBee Burger and the German chain ‘Hans im Gluck’.

We don’t really get why large companies like The Crown, The Clown and The Colonel have not played a larger part in this development.
