Yes, it is possible to be gluten free at McDonald’s. by Sandra Coates https://gluten-free-blog.com/gluten-free-mcdonalds/#comment-73122 Tue, 26 Sep 2023 18:03:59 +0000 http://www.gluten-free-blog.com/?p=26#comment-73122 Some people are gluten intolerant and can eat certain things that are made in same kitchen as wheat so perhaps you could consider this.
Also what excuse do they have for not doing caffeine free coffee, there are a lot of people who now only drink caffeine free drinks.

]]> Comment on McDonald’s fries: gluten free or not gluten free? by Sam Leikind https://gluten-free-blog.com/mcdonald%e2%80%99s-fries-gluten-free/#comment-45224 Mon, 28 Jan 2019 20:53:10 +0000 http://www.gluten-free-blog.com/?p=146#comment-45224 I have celiac disease and have eaten McDonald’s French Fries in restaurants in the United States where I live. I have never gotten sick from eating McDonald’s French Fries. I was surprised to learn that McDonald’s French Fries contain wheat. But I did read that a test was done which found no gluten in the fries. I think McDonald’s in the US just state that the fries have gluten because they don’t want a lawsuit. Some people with celiac disease are more sensitive to gluten than others. So please don’t think this means that McDonald’s French Fries are gluten free and ok for anyone with celiac disease to eat.

The Soup Kitchen do a decent range of GF food. If you can drive out towards Penkridge, Pillatons also have a lot of GF. Much nicer food than McDonalds.

]]> Comment on Gluten Free Grocery Stores: What local supermarkets sell gluten free foods? by Hendry McCann https://gluten-free-blog.com/gluten-free-grocery-stores/#comment-42997 Thu, 28 Sep 2017 13:54:32 +0000 http://www.gluten-free-blog.com/?p=11#comment-42997 I have recently been diagnosed as WHEAT intolerant even after a blood test for Ceoliac Disease. My Doctor said that the test does not cover everything. I had been suffering with BLOATING for a few years and could not understand why I what was causing it.
I now visit the “FREE FROM” section of my local supermarkets and I have found that Morrisons (Berwick upon Tweed) sell gluten free chipolatas that taste just the same as normal ones. Give them a try you’ll love them. I find that the other sausages, from all the supermarkets, are a bit messy to cook and taste a little different. Hope this helps someone.

I made them for some friends including one Dutch lady who requested gluten free. She enjoyed them very much as did a number of others and I was asked for the recipe!
I can’t remember where I bought the packet, which was produced by a factory in Hawarden, Flintshire, North Wales, could have been from a UK supermarket but I did buy a load of stuff for my daughter-in-law from shops locally here in France. I live in Payzac, which is in north east Dordogne within reach off Brive, Limoges and Perigueux

Have tried telling the main supermarkets as their gluten free biscuits are loaded with sugar sometimesup to 15teaspoons per biscuit. you cant take away the gluten and replace it with sugar we will all end up fully diabetic!

I have worked in McDonald’s for years and I have seen fry vats used for onion rings when they are out AND veggie burgers daily!!
I have only recently been diagnosed as coeliac so never thought anything of it until now as I’m sure most staff there don’t. Cross contamination for vegetarians is considered but gluten was never mentioned

]]> Comment on List of gluten free foods: all those things you CAN eat by Marianne https://gluten-free-blog.com/gluten-free-foods-list/#comment-41572 Wed, 18 May 2016 22:56:26 +0000 http://www.gluten-free-blog.com/?p=15#comment-41572 Thank you for this. It is a handy little reminder list to pass to people to avoid repeated questions.

Helen R: It is good that Natco replied to you and it is as I suspected. This is obviously several years since they replied to you; however, the description of their Natco fine corn meal on various supermatket websites always stresses that corn meal is “naturally free from gluten”. Not a word of warning about the possibility of cross-contamination due to manufacturing methods.

Well, this past weekend I made two delicious cornbread loaves using their fine corn meal was severely glutened. I am currently undergoing intensive treatment for the excrutiating rash which has spread all over my body, among other symptoms. I have had to give this one away, plus the bread. Cleared the kitchen of anything with the name Natco on it!

No idea I’m afraid David. You could try a big supermarket like Carrefour.
