Would you like a lawsuit with those fries?
At least three people in the U.S. have filed lawsuits against McDonald's because the fast food giant's french fries contain milk and wheat ingredients.
The lawyer for an Illinois woman with celiac disease says his client's condition is set off by eating gluten, a protein found in wheat.

Debra Moffat of Lombard, Ill., is seeking unspecified damages, claiming she suffering heightened gastrointestinal symptoms after eating the fries.
Nadia Sugish of Los Angeles is also suing. She says she's a vegan and would not have eaten the fries if she had known they contained dairy products.
Mark and Theresa Chimiak of Jupiter, Fla., allege in their suit that their five-year-old daughter, Annalise, became seriously ill from eating the fries because she has an intolerance to gluten.
The fast-food giant, which previously said its fries were free of gluten and milk or wheat allergens, added a ''contains wheat and milk ingredients'' postscript to its website's fries listing this month.
