McDonalds is a fast food establishment that is world-renowned, and has made cross-cultural adjustments in order to be world renowned.
McDonalds is not the easiest place to eat at when you have gluten sensitivity or NCGS. Because of cross-contamination issues, you should likely avoid eating the fries if you have Celiac Disease, food allergies or other wheat intolerances.
If you know for certain that the hash browns are fried in separate oil, then you can go ahead and splurge on the fries, but if they are not, then – I’m afraid – there’s going to be some cross-contamination of gluten containing substances.
As with any restaurant, inform them of your situation and warn them of cross-contamination.

Popular Gluten Free Items at McDonalds
If you’re in the mood for fast food, though, you can certainly create a meal that you can eat.
McDonald’s gluten free menu somewhat lacking, but is good for a quick snap.
Some of the favorite gluten free menu items are meat patties with cheese, yogurt parfaits and ice cream sundaes, including the nuts.
McDonalds certainly has its place in our culture, and sometimes you just need that easy, go-to stop.
Sausage Patty, Beef Patty and Eggs
Pack on that protein for breakfast, lunch or dinner and order your favorite meals, sans the bread. This cuts out the carbs, but not all the flavor.
Fruit & Yogurt Parfait, no granola
This Dollar Menu item is perfect for both breakfast and snack. It’s creamy and sweet and offers the perfect fruity crunch in every bite.
M&M McFlurry
This is a great gluten-free snack or dessert, that comes with the cutest little spoon, y’all. McDonalds is a clever fast food restaurant.
Their spoons double as the stirrer – crazy smart.
Do yourself a favor and ask for extra M&Ms. You deserve it.
Enjoy McDonald’s Gluten Free Offerings
McDonalds doesn’t have an exclusive gluten-free menu, but if you’re a meat and cheese connoisseur who likes to dip everything in sauce, then this is your spot. Plus it brings back nostalgic memories from childhood – I’m just glad the creepy clown isn’t as prevalent. Ah, the 80s….
