McD's Fries - Clarified Ingredient List

[Guest guest]

Since it comes up fairly frequently, I thought I would post the

ingredient list that Mc's is now posting for their fries. It is

the same ingredients as before, just clarified due to the recent

issue over the beef flavoring.

---->

Revision:

Potatoes, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, natural flavor (beef

source), dextrose, sodium acid pyrophosphate (to preserve

natural color). Cooked in partially hydrogenated vegetable oils,

(may contain partially hydrogenated soybean oil and/or partially

hydrogenated corn oil and/or partially hydrogenated canola oil

and/or cottonseed oil and/or sunflower oil and/or corn oil). TBHQ

and citric acid added to help preserve freshness.

Dimethylpolysiloxane added as an anti-foaming agent.

-Wendi,

It is due to close minded statements such as that,that has helped me

come to this decision...I am leaving this list-serv. YOUR answer to

me, because of the fact you feel quilty that you feed your child

something, is unacceptable. I find it pathetic that when an answer or

comment does NOT conform to the majority on this list, people bash

people. I have seen it happen concerning Dari-Free, SPecial Foods,and

the list is endless.....check your logs, it goes on and on....how

sad, and no Wendi, in case you are wondering, those were NOT posts

from me, they were from other poor unsuspecting individuals who got

bashed. I will no longer recommend this list either for this very

same reason. How sad that support on this list only goes as far as

whether or not your opinion agrees with others. I would also like to

thank the people who privately emailed me with RESPECTFUL notes, I do

appreciate it, for all others, well, I obviously must consider the

source. How sad I feel I must leave,after being here over a year,

because of the very thing you claim to be about....support.

Sincerely,

Debbie Jusi

Phyllis,

Thanks so much for posting this other message to the board, I

appreciate it.Sometimes we are worse than our teenage kids arguing

over which hair spray is better LOL.... After I came off my high

horse (by the way thanks for lending me the ladder to climb down guys)

I realized what you meant by my post and I have hopefully learned a

better way to cautiously express my ideas,views and hints.
