Pure Halal Beef McDonald's meat patties are produced from pure halal beef with no additives, preservatives or flavour enhancers. The beef patties are prepared and packaged at McDonald's approved meat plants. In addition to inspections carried out before the beef arrives at the plants, our suppliers undertake several separate quality checks on every batch. The beef patties are cooked without the addition of fats or oils. Potatoes McDonald's world famous French Fries are produced from only the best quality potatoes specially grown for McDonald’s at selected farms around the world. The potatoes are specially blanched and processed so that maximum nutrients are retained. Fish The fish in McDonald's Filet-O-Fish are skinless fresh wholesome fillets of delicious and mild white-fleshed fish. Upon arrival at the plant in Malaysia, the fish blocks are stored in a temperature-controlled environment to maintain their freshness. They are then cut and sliced, battered and breaded without added flavouring or colouring. Halal Farm-Fresh Chicken Our chicken is selected for their wholesomeness - boneless breast and thigh meat that meet all our physical and bacteriological specifications. They are shaped to ensure consistency in weight and they are covered in specially seasoned breading and tempura batter. Fresh eggs Only farm-fresh, low-cholesterol, premium quality eggs go into our delicious egg products. McDonald’s eggs are washed and cleaned with a special detergent to remove bacteria. The shells are coated with a thin layer of food grade oil so the eggs stay fresh and safe. We keep our eggs chilled and only crack them open just before cooking to make sure they are fresh and hygienically prepared.   Cheese Dairy products, including cheese, have a role to play in a balanced diet because they contain a wide variety of essential nutrients such as protein, calcium, fat-soluble phosphorous and zinc.   Buns McDonald's buns are baked locally and delivered fresh several times each week. Vegetables Freshly shredded lettuce, slivered onions and pickles are used in all our burgers. Our lettuce heads are grown in Malaysia, Australia, China and USA and are shredded locally.   Apples Our Apple Pies are made from real apple slices blended with cinnamon and then covered in a crisp, short crust pastry.   Oranges An excellent source of Vitamin C, McDonald's imports pure concentrated orange juice with pulp. No preservatives or sugar are added. Salt Most of our food contains some salt, in amounts consistent with grocery foods purchased for the home. Our French Fries are salted as part of their preparation process but you can request them without added salt. Halal All food consumed at McDonald’s comply with Halal requirements. Raw ingredients, cooking utensils and meals conform strictly with the Islamic Halal requirements of the Government of Malaysia. Additives What we leave out of our food is as important as what we put in. Any additives used are those already included by our suppliers only to maintain quality.
