I so glad that this thread was posted.  It has been awhile since I checked
Burger King's ingredients list.  I wonder if they changed the recipe
recently.  We went to BK earlier this week.  My daughter, Rebecca, is
sensitive to very small amounts of milk protein.  She wouldn't eat the
hamburger, and said "It tastes funny.  Only McDonald's hamburgers are good."

This is not the only time that she has tasted milk in something and when we
checked sure enough it was there.  Has anyone else noticed that they or
their child can do this?

P.S.  This discussion about ingredient lists makes me want to warn new folks
that "artificial flavors" can mean milk products.  Years ago, we had several
months where Rebecca had symptoms but we couldn't find the culprit.  It
turned out to be the artificial flavor in the margerine we were using.
Thankfully the Kosher labelling has worked for us so far.

Also, "dairy-free" and "non-dairy" do  NOT mean there is no milk.
Furthermore, just because something looks like a milk product substitute
does not mean that it is safe.  For example, the second ingredient in most
soy cheese is casein.

> I missed the buttermilk.. that's too bad, but it's good that you caught it
for me.  It looks like the only fast food hamburger that is supposed to be
milk-free is McDonald's and I suspect that the last one I had had milk in
it.  I don't like their food anyway, hehe.
