[siz]

Im typing on my Playstation 3 controller so mind my spelling errors,

So onto the subject, i have heard alot about McDonalds frying their fries in lard before you ship them to mcdonalds stores to be fryed again in vegitble oil whitch brings me to the conclusion that i cannot eat them as i am a vegitarian and i am a pretty strong vegitarian and im kind of sad if i cannot eat these fries (Since they are the worlds greatest fries next to lays potato chip frech fries) so yeah if anyone has any infomation can you update me on if these fries are cooked like this in Califoria, Gibraltar and England (The places i live), THANK YOU!

Im also considering becoming a Muslim.

Fruit and veg? Are you reding the same thread? He is talking about the fat used from animals that have been slaughtered for food.
And yes. McDonalds french fries are originally cooked in pig fat. Then shipped to McDoanlds and cooked in Veggie Oil.
Sorry.

They obviously don't care.. everyone has their own opinion and if you want to find out.. do it yourself.

Either is wearing animal fur but they still think that's wrong.

well, the mcdonalds over here in singapore have been certified 'halal', which also means that it is free from pork/lard and is safe for the consumption of muslims. thus, the fries have not been fried in lard before being exported here. i'm not sure about the places you've mentioned though.

and why do you want to be a muslim? i'm a muslim myself, but perhaps you should read up about it in detail before considering.

As someone who once worked in McDonalds (and I will never do so, again,) I can say fries are not fried in lard. They come in large, frozen bags that are distributed to various restaurants/fast food places around here. Maybe it's because our McDonalds isn't big. But anyway, if they did fry them in lard, it wouldn't be safe to eat fries just about anywhere. o.O;

But trust me. If you work in McDonalds, you will never, ever, ever want to eat there again. Especially after you do dish washing. And after you see the fry hoppers.
NEVER.
