We are working to get additional information and will share updates as they become available. We have gotten, but not yet confirmed, that the change to the allergen and ingredients listing is due to an ingredient from a supplier with undeclared milk. According to the information shared by a community member, Chick-fil-A is working to get this resolved to remove milk from the products.
As a parent of a child with severe egg/milk allergies (all byproducts and proteins) as well as exercise induced anaphylactic to wheat. This change that CFA did is so disheartening!! I called a local store to try to understand and then they referred me to corporate. I did call corporate and put in a complaint. I am supposed to hear something back from them either by email or phone. I appreciate the alert. I hope CFA is able to change back. My child was so excited when she realized she could...
So it’s now two months into this “temporary” change and there’s been no updates? I would think it shouldn’t take this long for the dairy ingredient to cycle out??
@Marissa17 we just got an update from Chick-fil-A today regarding the dairy allergen. They stated the dairy will be removed from their grilled nugget and filet products starting Friday, October 28th.
Hello @Steve1976 and welcome to the community! I'm sorry your family is affected by this product change. KFA did reach out to McDonald's for more information on behalf of our community. McDonald's didn't clarify when distribution began or when all locations would have the new buns. Should any further updates become available we will share them here. Was your son having any reactions to the burgers/buns?
@Moe M. He hasn't had a burger there in quite a few months. He gets into phases of what he enjoys eating. He now eats nothing but Chicken Nuggets from there of which he has no reaction too. But in the event he decides he wants a burger, it would be good to know if and when this change has taken place.
@Steve1976 There are pea ingredients in the chicken nugget products as well. If he's tolerating those with no reactions, it may be worth bringing up with your doctor if you haven't already.
Does anyone know when this change took affect? Meaning what date the the distribution of the new buns occur? My son has allergies to pea protein and potatoes along with Peanuts/Tree Nuts/Eggs. He recently stopped eating burgers on his own fruition, but we are not sure if its because of the ingredient change as we do not know when this change took affect.
I find the other comments interesting as my son also has allergies to peas, potatoes and eggs. He eats chicken nuggets with no issue and recently had a burger with no issues.
@JVK If he's having no issues with them, it would be good to mention it to your doctor. A test like an oral food challenge can help determine if they're still allergic to that food or not.
@Steve1976 , if you take a look at the news article KFA linked from "improving their burgers" you'll see that the new buns just started rolling out across the west coast a little over a month ago. So stay on guard if your son decides to try burgers again. He may have not had the new recipe yet.
Update June 18th, 2024 : Update: In-N-Out confirmed that sesame flour will only be added to buns in Texas and Colorado. The company website has been updated with the following information: “Beginning June 12th, hamburger buns served at In-N-Out locations in Texas and Colorado will contain a small amount of sesame flour (less than 2% of ingredients). Buns served in our other six states (CA, NV, AZ, UT, OR, and ID) remain free of sesame.”
