what does natural beef flavor mean
Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: No, natural beef flavor is naturally derived from beef. McDonald's natural beef flavor is milk-based, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have slaughter byproducts from dead cows in it. They simply don't have to specify (they only have to point out the milk because it's an allergen.) Unless an ingredient said artificial beef flavor from non-meat sources a vegetarian would not eat it.
