Guest guest Posted January 21, 2001 Report Share Posted January 21, 2001 It is important to breath love, to think love, to speak love, and to eat love.. only foods with no animal products are made of love, for only they have no cruelty in them I am reposting this from another list Mcdonald's fries have beef fat http://www.mcspotlight.org sharonsky@w...> Wed Jan 17, 2001 7:29pm McDonald's Fries For all who might be interested. There has been question on other lists I am on whether McDonald's Fries are vegan or not. The ingredient in question was the "natural flavor". I asked McD if there was beef in the "natural flavor." Here is the response I received. Hello Sharon: Thank you for taking the time to contact McDonald's. We always appreciate hearing from our valued customers and welcome this opportunity to share the following information with you. Our suppliers use a unique production process to make our french fries. After the potatoes are washed and steam-peeled, they are cut, blanched, dried, par-fried, and frozen. It is during the par-frying process that the natural flavoring is added. The natural flavoring consists of a miniscule amount of beef extract. Again, thank you for contacting McDonald's. We look forward to serving you again soon under the Golden Arches.

I checked your ingredient list and the only thing suspect is the item called "natural flavor". I have heard that this is beef tallow, but I would like to check with you to make sure. I am a vegetarian and would be very disappointed to find out that McDonald's fries are not vegetarian, because I would then no longer be able to eat them. Thanks for your time.
