Business Insider food correspondent Nancy Luna visits Mr.Charlie's, a plant-based fast-food chain in California whose sandwiches look like they could be found on the menu at McDonald's.
  • Mr.Charlie's is a plant-based fast-food chain that opened in Los Angeles in 2022.
  • It immediately became known as the "Vegan McDonald's," as its menu is a parody of the brand.
  • I visited the chain's new location in Venice, California, to test its vegan fast-food sandwiches.

Mr.Charlie's wants to disrupt fast food.
