I am Jain. I do not eat potatoes. I have heard that all your burger patty contains potatoes like in Veg Maharaja Mac, Cheesy Italiano Veg, McVeggie Burger, Veg McMuffins, American Cheese Supreme-Veg. Is it true that all of them contains potato in one or the other form?
Hi Amar, you are right, most of our vegetarian burgers contain potatoes, except for our McSpicy Paneer Burger.I am a westerner coming to India for the first time and am afraid of consuming local water and getting “Dehli Belly”. Does McDonald’s use filtered water in its fountain pop and soft-serve/Mcflurry machines? Is it safe for westerners? Also, I have been advised not to eat salads when in India due
to bacteria concerns. Is the lettuce on burgers washed in filtered water? Thank you for your response.
Hi Allison, yes, the water used for fountain pop complies to packaged drinking water standards. Shredded lettuce received in stores are already processed with highest GMP standards and are food safe. We do not wash lettuce at stores.
Recently I came across a whatsapp message about usage of LM10 as one of the ingredients in your products. The forward says that LM10 is derived from pork. Does any of your product have LM10? Does any of your product in India have anything that sourced from pork?

Hello Rakesh, all our burger buns are manufactured in India by three local bakeries across the country. The buns used at McDonald’s are 100% vegetarian. There is no rubber added, the natural and soft texture of the buns is due to the combination of a wheat variety, gluten yeast, and the baking process. Our Buns comply with FSSR standards.Do you use any dairy products in French Fries or are they pure vegan?
