ingredients: Potatoes, pork fat. definitely not vegan, but they could be if they were fired in canola oil instead. No wonder McD's fries taste like crap. Posted by: Angry Dog« on: January 04, 2011, 06:08 pm »Yes, I know they used to fry it in tallow but either way it is not vegan as it has milk ingredients as well.Never said it was, champ. What I said was there is no beef fat in the fries Posted by: Rayndrop« on: January 04, 2011, 01:45 pm »French Fries: Well, guys, I decided that their must be a reason why the vegans which I know in my reality would consider McDonald's French fries to be 'vegan'. See, I think it has to do with the simple fact that I reside in Canada, and apparently, our ingredients for McDonald's fries are vegan unless I misread something. Canadian McDonald's Fries consist of; Potatoes, canola oil, hydrogenated soybean oil, safflower oil, natural flavour, (vegetable source), dextrose, sodium acid pryophasate (maintain colour), citric acid, (preservative), dimethylpolysiloxane (anti foaming agent), and cooked in vegetable oil. (Canola oil, corn oil, soybean oil, hydrogentated soybean oil with THBQ, citric acid and dimethylpolysiloxane). Here's the source if you want proof: http://www.mcdonalds.ca/pdfs/IngredientFactsEN.pdf Therefore, the McDonald's French Fries of Canada ARE vegan - we failed to take the different countries we live in into account. Which would explain WHY the vegans I know in my reality decide to eat McDonald's Fries.

Typically, the use of "natural" when referring to ingredients/aspects of any processed food is a major oxymoron. Posted by: Angry Dog« on: January 04, 2011, 10:08 am »Natural beef flavor?

French Fries:I'm aware that Mc Donald's has "natural beef flavor", however it is not fat/tallow, since as previously stated, they got criticism for it (see: lawsuit) and stopped. However, I did mess up the date and even though I did, it's still been several years since beef fat has been in fries. However for the date mess up, my apologies are offered http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/06/05/national/main511109.shtml http://www.compassionatespirit.com/McDonalds-Lawsuit-article.htm Posted by: Hamster Apocalypse« on: January 03, 2011, 06:15 pm »His source is there, it's from the McDonalds website.

And that is what doomed the Rainforest Cafe at the mall that was near me. High price for little food. Posted by: Nice Guy Cody« on: December 30, 2010, 09:22 pm »
Paying more for less; a cornerstone of the veg/organic movement. Posted by: Angry Dog« on: December 30, 2010, 06:00 pm »Mc Donald's has not used beef tallow for the fries since at least the year 1995 after criticism from Hindus and vegetarians. Furthermore, she was addressing the vegans that she is aware of, so while you're welcome to have an opinion, try not to supersede it over people you are not personally aware ofMany vegans in my reality eat at McDonalds, usually picking fries or salads.I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree. It is widely known in the vegan community that the fries contain beef fat (not vegan). And none of their dressings (to the best of my knowledge) are vegan.
Someone who takes Wendy Malick or Wayne Pacelle up on their infomercial request for "just $19 dollars a month" will pay HSUS $228 over the course of a year. Of that, just $1.03 will reach a pet shelter. |
