Yuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doesn't surprise me. Nothing about fast food would!

I suppose it might have gotten in the burger if someone got a finger to close to a blade somewhere along the process. It could be difficult to point a finger at someone (pun intended), since it may have been at the meat processing plant, wherever other ingredients (such as fillers) are added or where the patties are made, etc. I have no idea how many different steps that stuff goes through before ending up on the cooker, but I'd never eat at such a place - gluten or not.

I think it could easily end up in the meat by accident. When I was a teenager I worked in a sandwich as a "slicer". One time I ran my finger too close to the blade while slicing pastrami. It sliced off my nail and a tiny bit of my fingertip. I looked for it in the meat and couldnt find it. I had to go to the emergency to get it checked out. Someone else must have finished up my work that day and who knows if my nail ended up in someones sandwhich....but it was an accident. :(

oh i see, yah it could of easily been an accident, but aren't they supposed to be wearing gloves when they do stuff like that

The patties are not made on site. They are brought in frozen, so the problem had to be at the plant, and not with the resaturaunt itself.

Still, gross!!

Hmmm I had McDonalds last night, but it will probably be the last time I have that for a while. Not due to comments but rather if I go gluten-free.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
