Even the all beef patties will >have wheat flour in them to hold the pattie together! The Gluten Intolerance Group says that McDonalds 100% all beef patties are indeed safe, and they are *very* strict in their standards. It may be that in the USA, the ingredients are different than in Australia. They also list several other GF fast food chain burger patties, and I'm sorry I don't have my info with me here to list what they are. If there is interest, I can dig it out and post their info on burgers. Jenn [log in to unmask]
