Look on their website!

If you go to Mcdonalds.co.nz and then down the bottom it says "our food" click that. Then press "nutrition" and you can download a PDF with food sensitivities

As of the 25 May 2011 it says that their chips contain "traces" of gluten. I eat them and I feel fine. It says none of the sundaes contain gluten.

I hope that helps.

FRIES NOT GF
by: JennW

Read their ingredients on Fries , McDonalds Fries are basted in Beef flavoring with Wheat - THEY ARE NOT GF! Their ingredients can be found on their website, basically nothing at Mc'D's is GF except their sodas , ice cream and regular coffee , even then you need to be careful

Fries questionable
by: Anonymous

McDonald's fries are cooked in cottonseed oil which I believe is not completely GF. The seared chicken is low in gluten so I have the no bun option too. McD's welcomes you to bring in your own GF bun and will make the burger for you on that. The toasters use teflon and their buns are precut so there are minimal crumbs from standard buns. Hope this helps

fries
by: Kristin

Some people have reactions to their fries and some do not. There is wheat in the oil they use to par fry before shipping, though they claim through the cooking process it does not have gluten in it according to law (which means it could have some--up to 20 parts per million I believe). The link below is a great article about the facts.

Mcdonalds Fries
by: Kathy

Yes their fries are GF they only fry the chips in the oil so that they are GF. as for their sundies you would have to ask them, they do have all nutritional info on there items at hand. I can eat their meat patties as they are 100% beef, so I order a burger without the bread and eat it a bit like a salad.
