Gluten In Mcdonalds French Fries

mcDonalds just annouced that they is gluten in there french fries this is after we received emails from them confirming that the fries did not.

I have a 5 year old son who ate there periodically at best because our nutritionist even said they were gluten free and it was fine for us to take him there.

I am beyond ticked off at McDonalds from the point that they target young kids with toys and a clown but don't post this information on there products or in there stores (they changed it on their website) but I am sorry I did not log onto my laptop everytime we swung through a McDonalds. Who knows what is in there fries, why don't they just use potatoes.

I did not like my kids going there to begin with, but it was the one place we felt safe to have him eat at that he enjoyed.

Sincerely an upset parent

I'm with you on being a seriously upset parent. My five year old daughter is just crushed that she can't have McD's french fries like her friends any more. At least now we know why they made us sick when we ate there.

Yeah I wouldn't be as mad if they didn't flaunt the fact they were gluten free.

Well there's large billion dollar company ethics for you.

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!
