mcdonalds or burger king, which one? - Page 5

quote BlackLabel

You only have to look on the McDonalds website to know that's not true..

Just looking at their fries now..

Gluten - No
Soya - No
Nuts - No
Peanuts - No
Sesame - No
Milk - No
Eggs - No
Fish - No
Crustaceans - No
Celery - No
Sulphur Dioxide and Sulphites - No
Mustard - No
Molluscs - No
Lupin - No

So if you are allergic to any of those things you can eat their fries.. Now the ingredients..

Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Sunflower, Rapeseed), Dextrose (only added at beginning of season). Prepared in the restaurants using a non-hydrogenated vegetable oil. Salt is added after cooking.

Please note our Fries can be cooked in the same oil as the Spicy Veggie Patty which contains: Chickpeas (31%), Batter (Rice Flour, Maize Flour, Maize Starch, Potato Starch, (Stabiliser (Xanthan Gum)), Breadcrumb (Rice Flour, Gram Flour, Maize Starch, Dextrose), Onion (10%), Yellow Split Peas (8%), Potatoes (7%), Vegetable Oil (Sunflower Oil, Rapeseed Oil), Water, Dehydrated Potato, Herbs & Spices (Cumin, Coriander, Garlic, Garlic Powder), Sugar, Salt.

There is no mention of meat, dairy or wheat.. Given that I took that from the UK site where it is law to state exactly what is in everything they couldn't just sneak that stuff in.

Did you read the previous posts at all? It's different in the UK.

Taken from the US McDonald's ingredients list.

French Fries:
Potatoes, vegetable oil (canola oil, hydrogenated soybean oil, natural beef flavor [wheat and milk derivatives]*, citric acid [preservative]), dextrose, sodium acid
pyrophosphate (maintain color), salt. Prepared in vegetable oil (Canola oil, corn oil, soybean oil, hydrogenated soybean oil with TBHQ and citric acid added to
preserve freshness). Dimethylpolysiloxane added as an antifoaming agent.
CONTAINS: WHEAT AND MILK.
*(Natural beef flavor contains hydrolyzed wheat and hydrolyzed milk as starting ingredients).

Edit: Turns out that it doesn't have those ingredients in Canada either. That's coo', but I still don't think I'll support McDonald's.

im still a little confused. are they just wording it so people have no clue whats really in it, or am i actually reading it as 'fries have no meat in them, and the only animal product included is milk'?

Yeah, I noticed that too. Beef and chicken flavourings do have animal products in them though (aside from the milk ingredients here). :0/ So I'm not really sure why they aren't listing it.
