So, I've been checking again, to see if there have been any changes to the listings of gluten free items on the McDonald's menu.
Phew, big relief.....their fries are still listed as gluten free in Canada.
Check for yourself here on McDonalds Canada .
However, there are some websites for the USA McDonalds that state that their fries have a beef flavoring which contains gluten. So when I try to go direct to the source and go visit McDonalds USA on their website, it does state that their fries contain a beef flavoring that contains gluten.
So that is quite an interesting conundrum, because it is unexpected to discover different statements for Canadian McDonalds fries versus USA McDonalds' fries.
I would therefore, as usual, encourage you to practice caution and do your own research. Always be sure to get licensed medical advice if you have a gluten allergy.
You can call the McDonalds head offices too to get the information "straight from the horse's mouth"
Canada's toll free McDonalds Canada . If you scroll down to the bottom of their "contact us" page, you will find their toll free number listed on the left side.
USA McDonald's can be contacted at their Illinois office by looking at their contact info Here .
If you scroll to the bottom of the web page and in the right hand corner you will see the words "Get in touch with us" under the Customer Service Tab and if you click on the "Get in touch with us" words, it will display their toll free number which states that it is available 7 days per week.
Always be aware that restaurants and their suppliers can change their food ingredients whenever they wish, so always use caution if you have a food allergy. You can call or write for up to date information by contacting these restaurants directly.
Wishing you wellness and happy trails.
Carla.
