Answers:
Yep, in the US at least, some of the natural flavors in the fries come from beef!. There is almost nothing that you can eat at mcdonalds if you're a vegetarian, so just stay away!. Even their yogurt has gelatin in it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I only know for 2 countries!.

United States--yes, natural beef flavoring means non-vegetarian!.

England--no, certified vegetarian!.

scathy--a quote from your link "IMPORTANT NOTE: Please take into consideration that the information in this section is coming from many different sources and therefore some of it may not be correct!." & where does it say tallow!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I suspect they do but the real question is should you be eating there in the first place!. You'd only be supporting a megaglom corporation that buys GM foods from big agribusinesses that are unhealthy for you anyway!.

Plus by financially supporting such an industry steals much needed funds from local restaurants which can instead be recycled many times over within the community instead of being funneled to some corporate headquarters far away!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, but many McDonald's stores fry their fries next to meat, so the fries get contaminated!. I would know, I am allergic to meat protein, and I don't eat out unless I have lengthy talk with the manager!. Join proudvegetarian (no spaces) On yahoo 360 groups so we can talk more!Www@FoodAQ@Com

There is beef in the fries, it's put into them at the suppliers so it's not like the people cooking it know about it (they themselves don't add it)!.

The only place they do not add beef is in Muslim countries!.

Google it:)Www@FoodAQ@Com

They don't put meat in the fries!. They use it to coat the fries!.
That's what makes them golden brown!. It's a mix of meat and sugars!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

beef tallow is used in the flavoring of the friesWww@FoodAQ@Com

In Canada they do!. I don't know about everywhere else!. Either way Mcdonalds isn't the healthiest place to eat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The stock for flavoring and probably some of the oil/fats they put in to fry them are likely meat-based!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

That is completely untrueWww@FoodAQ@Com

They don't even put meat in the burgers!.!.!.!. why would they put it in the fries!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm a veggie too!. They dont put meat in, but I think they may cook it with goose fat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
