Lawsuit Claims McDonald's Big Mac Caused Near-Fatal Allergic Reaction

A man with a severe milk allergy is suing a New York City McDonald’s after suffering an anaphylaxis reaction from a Big Mac that contained cheese, despite his request for "NO American cheese." The lawsuit alleges that there was no allergy warning or cross-contamination warning when he made his order. The man's lawyer emphasized the need for establishments to cater to food allergies and ensure staff are properly trained. The lawsuit demands that McDonald’s follows adequate food and allergy policies, while the restaurant franchise owner stated that they take every complaint seriously and are actively reviewing the claims.
