    you cant call it french fries unless it's made with tallow. if it uses plant based oils, you have to call it "vegan potato straw". americans will kill each other to avoid eating it.

      It's funny too, that their French Fries do still have 'beef flavor ingredients' in the US, so they already aren't vegan

        But is it actual beef or is it some artificial flavouring using petroleum and corn syrup as feedstock?

          they are listed as 'not vegetarian', though I don't actually know what the beef flavoring is

          Cause, I do like some Vegan beef/chicken flavoring in stuff, and I think those are largely MSG+treated soy proteins, or something
