McDonald's Corporate Responsibility &
American Muslims' Civic Responsibility
What is in My Apple Pie?
- McDonald's is as American as Apple Pie
- But what is in my Apple Pie?
- McDonald's Apple Pie has L-cysteine!
- What is L-cysteine?
- A chemical, of course!
- But according to one of the organizations to which McDonald's is offering
cy pres funds, 99% L-cysteine in America was extracted from human hair…yuck!
- Dunkin Donuts recently changed the use of this chemical in their products.
- What is the source of McDonald's L-cysteine?
- McDonald's uses L-cysteine at least in four of their products including
Cinnamon Rolls and Tortilla
- If McDonald's L-cysteine is derived from human hair, we urge you to please
stop this practice as soon as possible. [In an email after this presentation
was delivered, McDonald's has stated that they do not use L-cysteine extracted
from human hair.]

Comment: A very articulate and compelling presentation. My suggestion is to play with market competition forces and approach a "smaller" company, rather than McDonald's to try implementing a halal menu.
In particular, perhaps existing franchisees of a McDonald's competitor could band together with a business proposal to try to take the risk, as it were, of offering a halal menu.
Instead of fighting the giant, why not just ignore them. After all, Muslims are already boycotting McDonalds. I have no intention of going back, even if they offer a halal menu. It would be too little too late as far as this young, professional Muslim family is concerned.
