The family's attorney, Brian W. Smith, said the family had checked with McDonald's before she ate the fries and were assured the product was gluten-free.
If they did check with McD's, and the company misinformed them, then they have an excellent negligence case.

Other foods with wheat in them are deep fried in the same friers (fillet of fish is a likely example). There's wheat products all over the store and in the food prep areas. To go to a fast food restaurant with a serious wheat allergy is just plain stupid regardless of that the minimum wage person behind the counter says. The parents were seriously negligent.
