How long you have to eat freshly-made McDonalds fries before they become inedible

Gotcha. I usually don’t associate Vegan as a type of Vegetarian, but a separate beast all together, that’s why I was confused.

I’ve been unable to find anywhere that states that McDonald’s beef flavor specifically is only plant and milk-derived (do you have a source?). The fact that they state on their site “We do not promote any of our US menu items as vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free.” makes me a little suspicious… especially after all the flack, one would think they’d be highlighting it if there was no actual beef (beef extract?) in the flavoring.

Edit: I am not trying to be difficult, I am just genuinely curious to know whether it is okay to try them once again (I remember them being more tasty than BK’s fries)
