Hello! McDonald's food is just like the food you prepare at home. If you think about the ingredients of our beef burgers for example, you will find 100% pure and Halal beef patties, farm-fresh tomatoes, lettuce and onions and high quality buns sourced from our approved bakery. Therefore, our food will also decay or rot when left for sometime in an environment that supports the rotting process. 

However, there is something important to note about the process. Essentially, the microbes that cause rotting are a lot like us, in that they need water, nutrients, warmth and time to grow. If we take one or more of these elements away, then microbes cannot grow or spoil the food. McDonald's food generally has less humidity (or water) content, due to the fact that our patties are grilled on a double-sided hotplate, which extracts most of their humidity in the form of vapor; and our buns are toasted, thus losing significant amounts of their humidity, too. In a nutshell, McDonald's food would decay, but it could be in the form of drying rather than rotting, unless the cooked food's humidity is maintained by wrapping the food with cling foil or storing it in a high humidity environment.

Hello! Our 100% pure and Halal meat is all sourced from approved suppliers who adhere to McDonald's stringent food quality and safety standards as well as globally-recognized Halal practices.  

As of the date of this response, the beef is sourced from approved suppliers in Australia and Brazil, and processed in Lebanon, by our approved supplier DEKERCO. 

For most of our Chicken products, the chicken is sourced locally, by our approved supplier HAWA CHICKEN. 

As for the veggies used to prepare our burgers, we use locally grown veggies by Alpha Green from the Bekaa Valley. 

Our golden McFries are grown and produced in France, by our approved supplier McCain.  

Our suppliers have a longstanding reputation for excellence, and share our commitment to animal welfare, and good agricultural practices. We hope this answers your question.

When frying our products, we make sure we use the best quality of less saturated fat canola and soft seed oil. With its reliable measurement technology, we use a new machine called testo, which is a digital cooking oil tester, that ensures quality assurance for our deep fryer. It measures the Total Polar Material in the oil used. So when the TPM reaches the limit value, we know the oil needs to be changed. We hope this answer was clear enough.

Hello! Our fries are made of 100% natural high quality potatoes grown, harvested, stored and processed according to the best food safety practices. The spots you referred to could be a result of one of two main reasons. First, after harvesting, some of the starch in the potatoes transforms to sugar, developing what is known as sugar ends that burn out during frying. The second reason could be small bruises resulting from the handling of potatoes, particularly while digging the potatoes out of the ground. As you can see, both are naturally occurring defects with no impact whatsoever on food safety. We continue to work with our suppliers to keep these marks at a minimum whether through manual sorting of potatoes or through the help of technologies such as high-speed cameras on the sorting belt.

Hello! Our food is freshly prepared to order, at peak hours, some of our food items, like our beef and chicken patties, are cooked ahead of time and kept in warming cabinets for a short period. This approach allows us to strike the perfect balance between exceptional food and quality service. It's important to note that items that are kept warm all have their own maximum holding time and are discarded if they are not served within that time.
