Fellow dairy allergy in the US here, though I’m fortunate it’s not anaphylactic so I don’t have to worry about dying. I also am constantly frustrated by dairy being in everything. And so many places don’t offer proper allergen menus! Something about the proteins in milk give it a uniquely addicting flavor, it’s what makes McDonalds fries so delicious. Wouldn’t be surprised if there was also a dairy industry lobbying thing going on, making sure every product has unnecessary milk in it.
Wait… there’s milk in McDonald’s fries?
Unfortunately.
WHAT. I’m so confused, I thought they were just thin cut potatoes fried in vegetable oil. Maybe Canadian ones are different?
Just looked it up, yes McDonald’s fries use milk in the beef flavoring they put on all the fries.
That’s so dumb, why would they do that?
To make them “taste better”
Oh wow, I didn’t realize it was different country to country, yea apparently it’s just a US thing. Ugh!
