Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 Can't we just switch to Burger King? As I recall their FF's are better anyway. kathiJessi Garlock wrote: I too went to their website and found the french fries to have wheat AND gluten. Quote

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 BK's fries are supposed to be GF, but prior to being GF eaters we FREQUENTLY got onion rings in our fries when we went there. That's the reason we avoid BK. Also, we like McD's fries better. Sue in Denver > > Can't we just switch to Burger King? As I recall their FF's are better anyway. > > kathi > Quote

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 Onion rings always show up in BK french fry containers... so I don't really think they are safe. > > Can't we just switch to Burger King? As I recall their FF's are better anyway. > > kathi Quote

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 The Burger King site lists their french fry ingredients as: FRENCH FRIES (FRIED) Potatoes, Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil, Modified Potato Starch, Rice Flour, Potato Dextrin, Salt, Leavening (Disodium Dihydrogen Pyrophosphate, Sodium Bicarbonate), Dextrose, Xanthan Gum, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate added to preserve natural color. HOWEVER...over and over again I hear how people find onion rings mixed with their fries, and I've seen them use the same tongs, etc., so there is no way I'd eat them...not worth the risk. C Quote
Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 DH just recommended that I check out In-N-Out Burger, a fast food joint in California, Nevada, and Arizona. He says you can watch them cut the potatoes right there, and they don't seem to have any gluten fried products. I checked their web page, which was pretty uninformative, and then emailed them to see if they could verify that their fries were GF. I will let you know what I find out. I know this doesn't help those of you out of this area, but it's something. I'll still be out of luck on any midwest road trips, sigh... Quote

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 I have eaten some fries on rare occasions, but I also don't care for the GF burger there so we rarely go (BK was my favorite before CD). I have heard numerous tales of onion rings in the fries so I would indeed worry about contamination. Of course, fast food places are just about the absolute worst places to go if you're truly worried about contamination. richard --- A Olsen wrote: > ---Do you eat the fries at BK? > > Rick Lovegro wrote: This is > not how they do it now, though. > > richard > --- pjs_21030 wrote: > > > BURGER KING FRIES ARE NOT SAFE. > > > > I used to work at a Burger King and we fried > > EVERYTHING in the same > > oil.
